Luis Carlos Galan was a Colombian presidential candidate,assassinated in August 18th,1989.
He was a big opponent of the drug cartels,and although young,had great promise.
The day of his death I was at an international conference for business college students. We all went into shock,and at that moment the frail scaffolding of our civility started to show its cracks. A few years afterwards I was able to share,albeit briefly,with his political successors –but by then other issues,more urgent,had my complete attention.
