Nelson Mandela, who led the emancipation of South Africa from white minority rule and served as his country’s first black president, died Thursday night. He was 95.
It's hard to imagine how the fight against apartheid would have gone without him. Such an amazing person, 95 is long enough to fight that battle. Rest in peace.
I never thought I;d see him released. And then to become President, and forgive those who wronged him, well he well he was extroidinary in every way. A man among men. Who so we have now of that caliber? The ass balloon clowns we have now are woefully shitty. RIP my friend,RIP.
South Africa's hero lived to a ripe old age. RIP
ReplyDeleteHe was such an inspiration and an exlempary model for strength and forgiveness. May he RIP.
