The
leader of black bourgeois nationalism, life time servant of capital, Nelson
Mandela, is dead, leaving behind a shameful legacy of all sorts of compromises
and capitulation to imperialism, alongside betrayal of the liberation struggle
of toiling masses. Needless to say, that this legacy is equally shared with
Mandela by bourgeois leaders of all backward and ex-colonial countries- from
Nehru to Gaddafi.
Mandela’s
death is being used by the ANC, to attempt to reclaim its lost credibility by
chanting the history of struggle against the apartheid regime in South Africa
where workers and youth in the cities and towns, fought heroically against the
brutal regime and its heavily armed security forces, and scores were killed or
imprisoned.
