My name is Katie and I hail from Western New York. I currently doing nothing, but in university, I studied history and languages. I am interested in South Africa and the Muslim world, and took an Arabic class. I have taken French, Spanish, and German classes, and would like to learn more of the languages of South Africa.

Articles I started:

• Elias Motsoaledi
• Isitwalandwe Medal
• Congress of the People
• South African Indian Congress
• Protests of 1968
• Greg Jao
• Zinda Kaboré (translated from French Misplaced Pages)
• The template below:

Need help!!

I'm trying to expand the Simple English Misplaced Pages. The Mandela article there is still a stub. If anyone feels inspired, work on it or create some of the pages I'm trying to start.

Also, can someone help me with these articles I've started right here on the English Misplaced Pages?

• Yusuf Dadoo
• James Madhlope Phillips
• Duma Nokwe
• Monty Naicker

Quotes I like

"Without language, one cannot talk to people and understand them; one cannot share their hopes and aspirations, grasp their history, appreciate their poetry, or savor their songs. I again realized that we were not different people with separate languages; we were one people, with different tongues." -- From Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela

"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart." -- also Nelson Mandela
