In this episode I will discuss the life of Nelson Mandela. We last left off by saying something happened outside the courtroom that would change South Africa forever. Chief Lethuli is on the bench being cross examined and the date is March 1960. In this episode we will discover what happened and why this was a pivotal point in the history of our great country.

In this episode we discover that Nelson also had a fondness for a bit of facial fluff!
