@ ladibud - 17.07.18 - 11:01am so sick of seeing ads and hearing about it... it really annoys the hell out of me .... 67 minutes of charity.... helping someone.... painting some place or cleaning up somewhere.. for me it's false and quite cruel... and a done for recognition and that is not real charity what abt the rest of the year? giving the hungry a meal one day in a year because it's Mandela day is so hypocritical ... you aren't showing how much you care. you are showing what a sheep you are.. Agree! |

@ ladibud - 17.07.18 - 11:03am and not to mention all the programs and docus that are on tv about him every July... anyone in here from ZA doing anything and what are your thoughts on it Well I just did hour 16 left of my 18 hours of community work today as stipulated by my college. It's at an abandoned and orphaned baby home in a rundown area. Tomorrow we're signing some pledge that ''I'll not harm or abuse any woman or child' for moral instruction class before the talent show and youth club awards ceremony. |

@ kimjongl - 17.07.18 - 11:11am And now they're going to have Obama speaking tomorrow and we're going to be bombarded with coverage of that as if Mandela and Obama ever had anything in common. Their attempts at creating a narrative are all so superficial and transparent. No one wants to be the child who shouts out that the emperor is naked. If there is going to be a speech should be only one person giving it.... Desmond tutu.... Nobody else should be considered |

Read about the 3 guys who started the Anc. They were so brilliant and inspirational. Also Oliver Tambo and Albert lutuli.All had to work so hard to achieve stuff fighting hostility. Anc is a disaster now

@ladibud | 17 July 18 | |
sometimes I wonder how many of the stories are really true.... like white guards who would be huge mates with him etc.... or is it just 15 minutes of fame and bs... if you look at it you wonder how apartheid ever happened as all the old white ppl interviewed song his praises and some even say what good friends they were....

Would also like to know more about the Afrikaaner's who bravely fought apartheid. Beiers naude was one, there were others

I would rather read about the government making good.... about no more children going hungry.. about less crime... about politicians who aren't pocketing money... about SASSA grants being paid and that it is a living wage... about things that are relevant to us today... that we remember the past but don't use it to take the spotlight off what is happening today.... apartheid may be dead but many aren't free die to the government |
