NELSON MANDELA SPEAKS

Nelson Mandela speaks to me. He says to make sure that everyone knows how his life exposed western philosophy. The western way of life is a survival of the fittest way of life. If anyone tries to introduce a higher level of civilization to western cultures that person is punished. This happens especially when the western world is benefiting physically from a situation. The way of the west is the way of the five physical senses. Mandela was tortured, living behind the walls of a western prison in his homeland watching his brothers and sisters suffer for almost three decades. If the west ever allows the humanitarian to sit in the seat of power they never let that person exercise power in a way that will help anyone on the ground. The west likes to show the symbolism of humanity without the principles. Mandela was freed and became president, but never had the strength to undo the horrors of South African apartheid. Nelson Mandela proved that the western way is not the human way, the sane way, or the conscious way. When everyone is speaking niceties about Mandela, we should remember what the grand message of his life was.
