On February 11, 1990, Nelson Mandela took his "short walk to freedom" through the gates of Victor Verster prison in Paarl. He would go on to play a leading role in the dismantling of apartheid, the liberating of the South African people, and the founding of a new, democratic nation, work for which he won a Nobel Peace Prize. Please consider taking a moment today to honor the man as well as the movement, accomplishments, and hope for humanity that he symbolizes.Here's a link to the Nelson Mandela Foundation website.
