The pastor who won't be put out to pasture has a daily schedule that would stun many a business executive. Reverend Desmond Tutu makes his travel plans half a year in advance, flying off to the climate summit in Copenhagen or to Washington to meet with the American president. Wherever he goes, Desmond Tutu carries the voice of authority. During South Africa's apartheid regime, he fought for the rights of the black majority. Now he helps to advance the development of democracy in his country, and he sees the 2010 soccer World Cup, starting in June, as an opportunity to show the world the different face of South Africa.
