apelike Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I’m not sure that history is going to be very kind to Winnie Mandela. But the question is, should it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blake Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 her demise brings back so many great memories. Stompie Moeketsi for me is still the best-ever name to appear in a news headline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANGELFIRE1 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 She was a disgrace to the human race and should have been tried for murder many years ago. Angel1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andbreathe Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Winnie did, unfortunately. I thought she instigated it!! I’m not sure there’s any evidence that Winnie has actually advocated the crime..that would be tantamount to guilt. So the question to Hackey lad still stands....

"In 1986 she embarrassed the anti-apartheid community with the statement in a speech that "we shall liberate this country" with "our boxes of matches and our necklaces" interpreted as an implicit endorsement of the political killings by burning which did enormous damage to the anti-apartheid movement between 1984 and 1987." https://www.theguardian.com/century/1980-1989/Story/0,,110268,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
