This month, South Africa is celebrating two historically significant events. The first is former President FW de Klerk's speech to the apartheid Parliament, on February 2, 1990.

In that speech, he announced the unbanning of organisations and liberation movements like the African National Congress (ANC) and the Pan Africanist Congress of Azania. More importantly, De Klerk announced that Nelson Mandela would be released from 27 years of incarceration. I did not hear the speech because I was in class, conducting a mathematics lesson.
