EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic letter, dated September 1962, is a poignant reminder of the unwavering spirit and resilience of Nelson Mandela during his arrest and trial. As a leading figure in the fight against apartheid in South Africa, Mandela was arrested on August 5, 1962, and charged with sabotage and conspiracy to overthrow the government. During his detention at the notorious Pretoria Local Prison, he penned this letter to his dear friend and supporter, Ruth First. The letter, now held in the Ruth First Papers at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, is a testament to Mandela's unyielding commitment to the cause of freedom and justice. In it, he expresses his hope that "the struggle will continue to gain momentum and that the people will remain steadfast in their efforts to bring about a better South Africa." He also shares his thoughts on the importance of unity among the various anti-apartheid groups and the need for a united front against the oppressive regime. The letter is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by Mandela and other freedom fighters during the struggle against apartheid. It is a symbol of hope and inspiration, reminding us of the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity and fight for a better world. The document, with its yellowed edges and faded ink, bears the weight of history and serves as a reminder of the indomitable spirit of Nelson Mandela and the struggle for freedom and justice in South Africa.
