RIP: Nelson Mandela





Today, we’ve lost a courageous man who stood for justice - Nelson Mandela. He proved to the world that hope exists even in the darkest of hours, and for that, he will always be remembered. http://ow.ly/rva7l

Rest in peace....

Nelson Mandela, South Africa’s Liberator as Prisoner and President, Dies at 95
nytimes.com
Mr. Mandela’s quest for freedom in South Africa’s system of white rule took him from the court of tribal royalty to the liberation underground to a prison cell to the presidency.
 





Nelson Mandela, the leading emancipator of South Africa and its first black president, became an international emblem of dignity and forbearance.

“Mr. Mandela never seemed to doubt that he was the equal of any man,” writes Bill Keller.

 
 
The world desperately needs heroes -- those who lead without excessive ego, who sacrifice without seeking martyrdom, who show the way without condescension, who honor the best in us without shaming the worst in us, who exemplify what leadership can be and what a nation can accomplish, and from whose life we learn and relearn that social progress is not a pipe dream but the essence of what humans must embrace. Nelson Mandela was such a hero and such a leader. The world grieves his loss, and remembers his greatness.
