Nelson Mandela’s worthy ideal

Here’s Nelson Mandela describing his worthy ideal:

“I have dedicated my life to this struggle of the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for, and to achieve. But my lord, if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.”

Nelson Mandela: From his speech at his trial in Pretoria, 20 April 1964, which he then quoted on his release in Cape Town, 11 February 1990
