Mandela Day was instituted after a speech Mandela gave in 2009. His message was that South Africa is in our hands now, and he was right. The future is in our hands.
On Mandela Day we pay homage to the life of our great leader by paying homage to fellow South Africans, and what better way to celebrate his legacy and our country?
