Special Report Transcript Episode 80, Section 5, Time 36:16

The highs have really been very individual things and I think of specific events like workshops that I ran for victims in Port Elizabeth - also very early on in the process when I was learning and they were learning - and Brandon Hamber from the Centre for the Study of Violence and Reconciliation was with me. And the sense of pain in that room was immense, it was palpable. But by the end of the day as I had spoken about what the Truth Commission is about and how we wanted to reach out and embrace people and hold them and strengthen them one could almost feel that, the pain was still there but that people at last felt it was being acknowledged and that was tremendously important for them and I came out of that workshop on an absolute high.
