As the Israeli blockade of Gaza continues, a nearly 50-boat flotilla carrying humanitarian aid is currently some 150 nautical miles from Gaza. The grandson of Nelson Mandela, Nkosi Zwelivelile "Mandla" Mandela, speaks with Democracy Now! from the Global Sumud Flotilla.
South Africans "are beneficiaries of international solidarity. Those that rallied behind our cause and stood side by side in supporting the anti-apartheid movement ensured that we attained our freedom in our lifetime," says Mandela. "This is why today we utilize our voice to support the oppressed and most vulnerable nations across the globe."
