Anybody remember Apartheid?
There is a lot of knocking Mandela and others for violence, even comparing him to dictators.

When you and your race are oppressed are you tend to have very little choice, if you do what the Jew's did in the 1930's you will be murdered by the millions.
The Black South Africans fought back against Apartheid, peaceful activism can only work for so long.

I am not condoning the actions the ANC and others took, merely recognizing that there was no other option for them.

The South African regime killed people who were dissidents, anyone who did not agree with them, Steve Biko may be the most recognized, but there were others.

Nelson Mandela may not have been perfect, but who is.
