RIP Nelson Mandela

I remember watching all the apartheid stuff on the news back in the day.  As a child of the south, I guess I was naive and blind to all the racism around me.  This really opened my eyes and helped me see everyone equally.

 

Cannot say I have always done or always do that.

 

But I try to and thanks in no small part to Mr. Mandela.

I admit, I've not really ever read much about him, so other than everyone saying he was great, and his use of a Rugby team to make a movie with Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman, and perhaps his long stint in prison for being an activist...., and maybe the fact that I think everyone confuses him with Morgan Freeman,  I'll have to get a book on the dude to get a handle on his impact and everything.

 

So RIP, great guy who I am not sure about what great things he did. :)
