You’re red under the sun.
You’re blue when you’re cold.
You are yellow when you’re afraid.
You’re green when you’re sick.
You’re gray when you die.
And you, call me color

Nelson Mandela was a lawyer who would offer guidance to black people on their legal problems. When I was in trouble, I would turn to him for advice. He was generous with his time, for which I was grateful.
I studied in school for only two years because my family couldn’t afford the school fees and the bus fare. After trying hard, I got a job in a gold mine. However, as I didn’t have a passbook, I might be out of work at any time. Fortunately, Mandela helped me get one. I became hopeful about my future.
I respected Nelson so much that I joined the ANC Youth League as soon as he founded it.
At that time, we reached a stage where there was no right for blacks at all. It was unfair. So we first attack/broke the laws peacefully and later answered violence with violence.
As a matter of fact, I hate violence. But I helped Mandela blow up some government buildings. If I was caught, I would be put in prison. But I was willing to do that because only in that way could we make black and white people equal.
