A well-planned photo-op. On top of this, most of the other leaders 'peeled off' and got back to safety soon after they started - never reaching the march and never reaching its starting nor end points. Holland was supposed to have originally walked the entire route, but I've not heard or seen that he did. He was seen meeting with the family of those killed and thanking some police officers...then coverage of him too stopped. Granted they had a huge security problem on their hands with so many leaders, but this was a trick on the public watching. :: Perhaps more upsetting, but not surprising, is that the camera crews filming this didn't tell the truth, in fact, they led the watchers to believe these leaders were headed to JOIN the masses and then march with them. I guess in more ways then one, 'leaders' and the masses don't 'mix'.

Hasn't that always been the case...
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
