WHY HAVE A STATUE OF NELSON MANDELA IN LEICESTER?


www.spacehive.com/nelson-mandela-statue-leicester

​LEICESTER   CITY  HAS  HISTORICAL  LINKS  WITH  NELSON  MANDELA

In the 1980's, 
Leicester City tirelessly campaigned to free Nelson Mandela from imprisonment by the
White racist South African government that believed in white supremacy and black domination.

Even with these efforts and others the world over, Nelson Mandela still spent nearly a
quarter of a centenary (~25 years) in Robben Island Prison, in South Africa.

When Mandela was released in 1993, was he bitter with the White supremacist government or with white people?  No!
Instead,  there was a peaceful transition of power after elections to Black majority rule.  Mandela believed in a "rainbow nation" where all races of people - starting with those in his native country - live in freedom - 'free from white & free from black domination' (Anti-Apartheid).
His legacy embraces people of all colours & culture, faith or none.


NELSON   MANDELA   STATUE

The statue would be a focal point for the rich & diverse people of all colours, cultures & multi-faith of Leicester.
It is an inspiration to live in peaceful harmony, share & enjoy each others' wealth of knowledge, activities, events & what it means to be human.

The Nelson Mandela statue will be warmly inviting, expressive & impressionable.

We also intend to have a 'peace garden' to create an atmosphere of tranquility and togetherness for those who visit.

An environmentally friendly attraction that will be a 'must visit' place by people of Leicester and beyond.
