meet Nelson Mandela

this is my passion. i was an african studies minor in college. i have been to tanzania and it changed my life. after going there i continued to study and really narrowed my focus on south african history and politics. my heart is in a place i have never been and i have been captured by a man loved by the world. i will make this dream come true by hearing him speak. i saw the other groups for hearing him speak, but i decided that i’d like to consider that meeting him. that is settling, but to me it would be as much of an honor because i wouldn’t want to do any of the talking anyway. i could listen to him say the alphabet and i’d be happy. if any of you know of appearances in the US anytime in the next few years (just as a way to make sure i have time to plan and get it accomplished) this is one of my biggest goals and i want it to happen. otherwise when i make it to south africa i will not only trace his footsteps, but i will hear him speak in his homeland.
