Wrong platform dude.
Missy started the thread I merely commented![/QUOTE]
What is good for the goose is good for the gander. If you allowed to comment what stop others from starting a thread and give their views. Or are you a special member with special priviledges
MrJ, everyone is entitled.

Let's not give his patheticness anymore airtime than it needs
Winnie was banished to a dusty village, Brandfort, hundreds of miles from her Soweto home, and that, and an incident in 1969 broke her. In 1969, security branch came to her Soweto home at 3am. She was alone with her daughters, aged 10 and nine. Winnie asked to fetch her sister one street up so the girls would not be alone. The police refused, she was taken and her children left alone.
She spent 18 months in solitary confinement, naked, not allowed to wash, and not allowed out for exercises. She did not know what had become of her girls. She was not allowed sanitary towels when she had periods, nor water or cloths to clean, and so the blood caked on her. She made friends with cockroaches.
She had a plastic bottle with two-and-a-half litres of water for the whole day. That was your ration for the day and you drank from the bottle---there was no glass, you drank from that. Then you wiped your face with that and you just wiped your armpits and yourself.
Solitary confinement is worse than hard labour. When you do hard labour you are with other prisoners, you can tolerate it because you all dig together, you communicate and you are alive. Solitary confinement is meant to kill you alive. It is the most vicious punishment that you could wish on your worst enemy. You are imprisoned in this little cell. When you stretch your hands you touch the walls. You are reduced to a nobody, a non-value. It is like killing you alive. You are alive because you breathe. You are deprived of everything---your dignity, your everything.
This is what she went through.

@Tegwane You should read
491 Days: Prisoner Number 1323/69 by Winnie Mandela
Thank you bbw, but is there any neutral platform that I could research that you are aware of? She appears to have been a very diversive person, so would like a neutral perspective? The articles and press I have read are poles apart and as you are aware everyone is subjective so not helpful.

Don't mind people like Lanavol. Apartheid sympathisers who miss being the benefits of privilege. He just can't handle seeing his privileged decrease so he lashes out. Last kicks of a dying horse.

Hahahaha, yeah, chancetaker, you go dude! If I had a mother like this I would have disowned her. Can you imagine ALL people who went through hardship like Nomzamo did, turning into justified mass murderers? What a pathetic excuse to kill!
Now you go and reap the fruit of being privileged. Nice, hey? I personallyt partied with your "exiled" comrades, in a part of the world where the "struggle" consisted of drinking, fucking white chicks and shouting ANC when drunk...very very far from South Africa. Nomzamo was here, given, but please do not justify murder with anything.
And this very horse is very very much alive.
But then, the proverb says it well: "God forbid for a blind man to gain sight...." Interpret whichever way you want.
Blow me. I knew my comment would spark some ignorant and ill-informed anger. It is called "blinkers". You have been brainwashed.
I said my piece, over and out from this thread. The hypocrits can keep mincing and worshipping psychos. You are hereby redirected to Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, Mugabe and the likes.
Peace.
