When Tyson visited Brixton he was hailed as a hero. Whatever
about some groups of people trying to stop him coming in to the
country, the streets of south London a few miles from where I live
were filled with people praising the man, not the boxer, but the man,
a proud figure making a personal visit to the people of Brixton. I still
don't feel stupid or indeed "ignorant" for missing the joke.
