Former South African President Nelson Mandela, who served 27 years in prison for anti-apartheid activities and led his continent into a new era, has died at age 95.

South African President Jacob Zuma confirmed the news:

"He is now resting. He is now at peace," Zuma said. "Our nation has lost its greatest son. Our people have lost a father."

Rest in Peace
I myself never learned much about him, since at school I was taught mostly of Gandhi and MLK, but from what I have read he accomplished quite a bit to have helped gotten rid of a (very) f_cked up system.

inb4 going to reddit to find out he was actually a heartless terrorist monster

RIP. Don't know much about him. Nor do I know know much about Gandhi or MLK either. 95 years is quite a good achievement though.

^Basically he used to be a militant against apartheid in South Africa (which, from what I have read, seems to have been much worse than segregation in the US - they forced blacks to live in tribal lands and carry passports whenever they left these lands (in their own country)), got imprisoned for some 27 facking years; After apartheid was removed instead of killing all the white people like people were worrying about, he turned from his militant past and became a peace activist, advocated against violence, probably saved a shitload of white people lives in SA (which is why so many white South Africans love him, i'd guess); and now some cunts on reddit keep bitching about him bombing a mall some 60 years ago (cause obviously the way to change things is to do nothing at all while all your people are treated like dogs in your own country)

Sorry for the rant, but it riles me up and I dont have a reddit account
