Goodbye Madiba....


During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.
Nelson Mandela - April 20, 1964
 

Voglio dedicare questo post a Nelson Mandela, leader della lotta contro l'apartheid in Sud Africa e Premio Nobel per la Pace nel 1993, che si é spento ieri sera nella sua casa di Johannesburg, all'età di 95 anni. 
Mandela ha passato 27 anni della sua vita in prigione a Robben Island e non ha mai smesso di lottare contro lo spietato regime dell'apartheid razzista e la segregazione razziale che hanno oppresso il Sud Africa dal 1948 al 1994. 
Nel 1994 Mandela é diventato il primo Presidente nero del Sud Africa, "The Rainbow Nation", come era solito chiamare la sua terra, ed ha saputo trattenere il suo paese dal precipitare in un baratro di vendetta e di sangue con il suo messaggio di perdono e di riconciliazione.

                  Grazie Nelson Mandela per quello che hai insegnato all'umanità....

I want to dedicate this post to Nelson Mandela, leader of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa and Nobel Prize for Peace in 1993, who is passed away yesterday evening at his home in Johannesburg, at the age of 95.
Mandela spent 27 years of his life in prison in Robben Island and he never gave up fighting against the cruel regime of the racist apartheid and the racial segregation that oppressed the South Africa from 1948 to 1994.
In 1994 Mandela became the first black President of South Africa, "The Rainbow Nation", as he used to call his land, and he was able to keep his country from plunging into an abyss of revenge and blood with his message of forgiveness and reconciliation.
         Thankyou Nelson Mandela for what you have taught to the humanity....
