Breathlessly, the 10-year-olds at Rosebank Primary School in Johannesburg clamour to explain all about Nelson Mandela's life.

For them, Mandela is the hero they love but never knew -- as he is for the kids who this week have delivered cards, flowers and get-well messages to his
Johannesburg home a short distance away as the 94-year-old icon of the struggle against apartheid fights a recurrent lung infection in hospital.

Those who help to perpetuate
White Supremacy are the
enemies of the People, even if they are Black,

While those who oppose all forms
of racism from part of the people
irrespective of their color.

A freedom movement that rejects
this basic principle does so
at it's own risk .

The Best Place One Could Be on Earth - Alice Walker .. one bit ..

Watching a video recently about Cuba's role in the ending of apartheid in South Africa, I was moved by the testimony of Pik Botha, once a high ranking official of white South Africa. He talked about how liberating it had been when South Africa was forced to attend talks prior to negotiating Nelson Mandela's release from prison and a change from a fascist, white supremacist regime to a democratic society. He said the feeling of not being hated and feared and treated like a leper everywhere he went was wonderful. The talks were held in Egypt and for the first time he felt welcomed by the Egyptians and took the opportunity to visit the pyramids and the Sphinx and to ride on a camel!

RIP Mr. Mandela, Your Light Shines So Bright...

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it.
The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
Nelson Mandela
