President Nelson Mandela and Christo Brand

Summarising, Nelson Mandela is widely acknowledged as one of the few 20th Century leading figures globally celebrated for his social justice stance, with his appeal able to transcend gender, race and age, bringing important values to all associated and wider communities.

In conclusion, this is ultimately an uplifting tale about a consequential and oppressive subject, where during Black History Month, there is often understandably lots of reflection about past injustices. By circulating this podcast, we are also sharing the best characteristics of humanity and hopefully inspiring a new generation.
