...AFRICAN AMERICANS who must suffer discrimination in silence have higher blood pressure than those who can afford to challenge racist treatment. The finding may explain why blacks as a group have such high rates of stroke, heart disease and kidney failure...

People began to realize that freedom of expression could mean skinhead demonstrations as well as democratic debate; self-government could mean an ugly strain of nationalism and xenophobia as well as independence; and economic liberalization could mean a "wild" brand of capitalism...
