SUMMARY:Global Perspectives Book Club - Long Walk to Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Book: Long Walk to FreedomAuthor: Nelson MandelaGenre: Autobiography \nDescription from Good Neighbors bookstore webpage:Nelson Mandela was one of the great moral and political leaders of his time: an international hero whose lifelong dedication to the fight against racial oppression in South Africa won him the Nobel Peace Prize and the presidency of his country. After his triumphant release in 1990 from more than a quarter-century of imprisonment\, Mandela was at the center of the most compelling and inspiring political drama in the world. As president of the African National Congress and head of South Africa’s antiapartheid movement\, he was instrumental in moving the nation toward multiracial government and majority rule. He is still revered everywhere as a vital force in the fight for human rights and racial equality. \nLong Walk to Freedom is his moving and exhilarating autobiography\, destined to take its place among the finest memoirs of history’s greatest figures. Here for the first time\, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela told the extraordinary story of his life — an epic of struggle\, setback\, renewed hope\, and ultimate triumph. The book that inspired the major motion picture Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom. \nLink to purchase book locally through Good Neighbor Bookstore: https://goodneighborbooks.com/book/9780316548182 \nLink to RSVP via Microsoft Forms:https://forms.office.com/r/MA925MmrSG \nWe will be meeting on Tuesday\, June 23\, 2026 at 6pm in the Fenn Library at St. Luke’s Church (in the undercroft\, behind the Johnson Stage).
