Truthful regarding Mandela's heavy support of aggressive tactics. I thought he was a complete non-violent protestor until I saw a documentary on him which noted an attack that killed people which he helped, at least, plan. This confused and angered me. The image in the 1990's was about letting an innocent man free. Words are one thing, they keep you free from guilt. But, violence, then I understand the imprisonment. But, he did become a President and further social activist in a positive way.
