You can admire someone who spent his life fighting for equality and freedom. Someone who was unfairly imprisoned in terrible conditions for standing up for what he believed and yet emerged in old age without rancour. He did not seek revenge. He sought harmony, peace and a better society.
Intelligence, wisdom and idealism in equal measure!!
Nelson’s prison cell
The Rock Pile in the Quarry
The Quarry
The toilet cave where Nelson taught writing
The yard with hard labour
A great man indeed!
We need more like him!
