On reconciliation and 'reconciliation'
Fragments.

Reconciliation implies a two-way process, ideally aiming at
equality for both sides to a conflict. Accountability can only be a part of
it if it’s scripted in properly and not, as it’s wont to be today,
pushed forward as part and parcel of a larger, insidious agenda. There are
degrees of equality with each side to a conflict blaming the other. Once you
factor in accountability, more often than not, what prevails is something that
goes by the name of reconciliation but which does not coalesce into the
genuine, cohesive movement it should.
