EL LEGADO

Nelson Mandela

"There are many who did not understand that to heal we had to lance the boil. There are many who still do not understand that the obedient silence of the enslaved is not the reward of peace which is our due. There are some who cannot comprehend that the right to rebellion against tyranny is the very guarantee of the permanence of freedom." ~ Nelson Mandela at the funeral of Oliver Tambo, F.N.B. Stadium, Soweto, Johannesburg, South Africa, 2 May 1993 ‪#‎LivingTheLegacy‬

"Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings." ~ Nelson Mandela at the launch of the ‘Make Poverty History ’ campaign, Trafalgar Square, London, England, 3 February 2005
