We will begin with a drum call led by Brother Val Serrant (you can bring a drum to join) and a libation by Sister Keisha. There will be an informal discussion about Mandela (Madiba) and remarks from those in attendance. Afterwards we plan to do a short walk together down Mandela Parkway.

How the Day came about: In November 2009, the United Nations General Assembly declared 18 July as "Nelson Mandela International Day" in recognition of the former South African President’s contribution to the culture of peace and freedom. Individuals around the world are asked to mark this day by making a difference in their communities.

MANDELA’S THREE RULES:
“FREE YOURSELF, FREE OTHERS, AND SERVE EVERY DAY.”
A FEW OF NELSON MANDELA’S QUOTES:
"IT ALWAYS SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE UNTIL IT'S DONE."
"A GOOD HEAD AND A GOOD HEART ARE ALWAYS A FORMIDABLE COMBINATION."
“IT IS EASY TO BREAK DOWN AND DESTROY. THE HEROES ARE THOSE WHO MAKE PEACE AND BUILD.”
