In the West Bank city of Ramallah, sits a six-meter-high bronze statue of Nelson Mandela, donated by the South African city of Johannesburg in 2016. A reminder of the long-standing bond and kinship the Nobel Peace Prize winner shared with the Palestinian people.

“Despite South Africa being liberated from the senseless violence and oppression, he was able to recognize the fact that our freedom is not complete until the people of Palestine are free,” said Siyabulela Mandela, the great-grandson of Nelson Mandela.

The younger Mandela, an independent consultant on human rights, peace and conflict resolution, spoke with Global National’s Farah Nasser while in Toronto where he was interviewed on stage at the Journalists for Human Rights annual gala.

“I think he would be highly, highly disappointed,” he said, “in the leaders of today and the decisions that they are making insofar as what is currently happening.”
