    Two of the most heartbreaking letters are ones Nelson Mandela wrote after the deaths of his mother and eldest son, whose funerals he was not permitted to attendhttps://nyti.ms/2KJGo3r

        Ah yes, Nelson Mandela, the murderous terrorist, so sad he couldn't be at the funerals of his family. I'm sure the people who's family members he murdered are just as sad, but nobody will write about them.

        It is important to remember that Ronald Reagan sided with the white men of South African apartheid against Mandela whom he considered "the most dangerous man in Africa"

        It’s honestly disgusting that you’re lying about MLK Jr. He said this in 1958: “I don’t think the Republican party is a party full of the almighty God nor is the Democratic party. They both have weaknesses … And I’m not inextricably bound to either party.”

        And this about the 1964 GOP Convention: “The Republican Party geared its appeal and program to racism, reaction, and extremism. All people of goodwill viewed with alarm and concern the frenzied wedding at the Cow Palace of the KKK with the radical right.”

        Nelson, the guy that thought blowing up innocent people was the best way for his people to gain power. Now look how well SA is doing. That’s what he wanted.

        You say that like the Apartheid government was not killing innocent black people. Today, black people are free, can vote, the country has a well working Constitution trying to unify all SAns regardless of race, I'd say we're doing quite well indeed. & on top of that, fuck you☺

        Since your comment for sure makes you come across as the absolutely most intelligent person that ever lived, I am sure you won't have a problem explaining how exactly that is related to Nelson Mandela. Go on, give it a try. Show us your inner brainiac.

        Black have farmed & provided for themselves long before white people came to Africa, & they will continue to do so long after they are gone.

        Your right. At one time they held millions of acres and held millions of slaves. they had great empires. Now,they can do nothing but kill and destroy. Same thing happened in Russia. They killed of the farmers and the low IQ thugs couldn't farm. So,they all starved.
