Dulcie: Du cap a paris, enquete sur i'ssassinat dúne militante anti-apartheid

En 1988, à la veille de l’élection présidentielle, François Mitterrand est à l’Élysée, Jacques Chirac à Matignon. Dans ce contexte de cohabitation entre la gauche et la droite, l’assassinat de Dulcie September, 52 ans, est hautement symbolique. La représentante de l’ANC en France est abattue deux ans avant la libération de Nelson Mandela et six ans avant l’élection de ce dernier à la présidence sud-africaine, le 9 mai 1994. Dulcie September a-t-elle été éliminée dans le cadre d’une action d’' escadrons de la mort ' sud-africains alors actifs en Europe, ou bien a-t-elle été spécifiquement ciblée parce qu’elle en savait trop sur le contournement de l’embargo dans le domaine de l’armement et du nucléaire ? Derrière l’assassinat de Dulcie September se dessine un véritable polar géopolitique...

Mandela: The Lost Tapes

Mandela: The Lost Tapes, an inspiring story featuring rare, unheard audio of 20th-century icon Nelson Mandela. The documentary reveals never-before-heard audio from Stengel’s interviews with the Nobel Prize winner, freedom fighter, and former South African president. Hours of rare recordings detail the turning points of Mandela’s life, key moments that shaped a revolution and the man who was to bring freedom to his nation.
In this Audible Original, Stengel relives his intimate chats with Mandela, attempting to answer the questions ‘What made Nelson Mandela who he is?’ and ‘How can the rest of us be more like him?’
In Stengel’s own words: “It’s partly the story about how Mandela and I wrote his memoir, Long Walk to Freedom. But much more than that, it’s a story about our unusual friendship, my struggle to learn who Mandela really was, and my quest to understand what makes a human being great.”
Mandela: The Lost Tapes provides an intimate look at who Nelson Mandela was beyond his carefully curated public persona. Through Mandela’s own words, he reveals his extraordinary journey to becoming one of the greatest leaders in modern history.

Gandhi and Mandela: Born in the R.S.A

An original, well researched and illustrated book, which sheds new light on the influence which Mahatma Gandhi may have had on Nelson Mandela – entitled Gandhi and Mandela: Born in the R.S.A.
Based on some thirty years of research, Haswell puts forward three propositions:

Firstly, that both Gandhi and Mandela, suit-wearing attorneys, were transformed and reborn as political leaders, by life changing experiences in the city of Pietermaritzburg – hence the title Born in the R.S.A.;
Secondly, that as a youthful leader Mandela certainly adopted the nonviolent campaign strategies developed by Gandhi; and,
Thirdly, that in the treason trials which Mandela had to endure, his courtroom demeanour, legal tactics, and even phrases such as “ if needs be I am prepared to die”, so closely resemble those used by Gandhi, in South African courts, some fifty years earlier, that the author contends that Mandela can be considered to be a legal disciple of Gandhi.
