“It is not our diversity which divides us; it is not our ethnicity, or religion or culture that divides us. Since we have achieved our freedom, there can only be one division amongst us: between those who cherish democracy and those who do not.”  - Nelson Mandella (1918-2013)

11th February 1990: Nelson Mandella released after twenty seven years imprisonment in South Africa.
