Watching the “Free Nelson Mandela” docuseries.
I love that it’s not solely focused on Mandela but gives a broader cultural, and political perspective. It explores how the international community advocated for the end of Apartheid.

Last night I watched the first ep of #FreeNelsonMandela on @Channel4 (director James Rogan). Beautifully-made 3-parter charting his journey from activist to political prisoner. The language in archive footage is shocking & it’s against the backdrop of complex current issues! 7/10
