Nelson Mandela

Today is Nelson Mandela's birthday! Celebrate by enjoying his 1994 Inaugural Speech:

"We understand it still that there is no easy road to freedom.
We know it well that none of us acting alone can achieve success.
We must therefore act together as a united people, for national reconciliation, for nation building, for the birth of a new world.
Let there be justice for all.
Let there be peace for all.
Let there be work, bread, water and salt for all.
Let each know that for each the body, the mind and the soul have been freed to fulfill themselves."
Read the full speech here.
