Winnie Nomzamo Madikizela Mandela affectionately known as Mama Winnie Mandela, Mother of the nation is on the latest issue of Destiny Magazine. She shares the cover with Naomie Harris who plays her in the most talked about movie, Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom.
Winnie Mandela is the true definition of 'black don't crack'. She's a 77 year old resilient strong and powerful African woman who doesn't look a day older than 50! She indeed represents Destiny's tag line, 'Beautiful Powerful You'.
Even though Winnie is one of the architects of a free and democratic South Africa, I feel she's not recognised enough for the sacrifices she made for her country. To a certain extent, I feel like her role in the liberation struggle is neither told nor celebrated to the fullest.
