Where is the African Church?

Mukoma Wa Ngugi writing in Zeleza:

The fiery Che Guevara once said that love is the basis of revolution. The clergy that stood against apartheid and dictatorships, or gave refuge to the hunted during the genocide in Rwanda, might not have agreed with Che's methods, but they were certainly being moved by a deep love for a collective humanity...today, without the evil incarnates of apartheid and the neocolonial dictatorships of the 1990's, oppression is no longer so easily definable. We are living in confusing times. Opposition parties have been bought off. Intellectuals are unable to help us digest what the betrayal of our second independence demands of us. Political activists engaged, sometimes by necessity, in bread and butter issues such as housing cannot attend to the national and international dimensions of our struggles.
