Nelson Mandela dies at 95 ( 1918-2013)

South Africa's first black president Nelson Mandela has died today at age 95, South Africa's president  Zuma announced.

I say he has gone to rest!
Black people were held captive, discriminated against in their own country. They were considered scums in their own land by "white people" who were minorities then. Imagine 10 percent of white people against 90 percent of helpless black people. Nelson Mandela, 95, led South Africa's transition from white-minority rule in the 1990s, after 27 years in prison.


This amazing man had been receiving intense home-based medical care for a lung infection after three months in hospital.

The UK government will fly flags half mast tonight in honor of Mandela.
The White South Africans are worried now, but we can only hope that Mandela's legacy will live beyond him. 

If you are too young (*Straight face* lol) to understand what the hype is all about, please go and read "The Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela" 

Rest in Peace Mandela
