Delivering a heartfelt keynote speech at the United Nations General Assembly’s commemoration of Nelson Mandela International Day, the Duke also invoked the memory of his mother the late Princess Diana and the iconic image of her visiting with Madiba in Cape Town in 1997.
“How many of us feel battered, helpless in the face of a seemingly endless stream of disasters and devastation? I understand, that this has been a painful year in a painful decade. We’re living through a pandemic that continues to ravage communities in every corner of the globe.
Prince Harry referring Madiba’s writing in his speech, seeking to better understand a man who always managed to find the light despite experiencing so much darkness. He told the Assembly that since his first visit to Africa at just 13, he had always found hope on the continent, referring to the region as his lifeline, a place where he found peace and healing while remembering his mother.
The royal brit channels mandela... The sheer amount of irony cannot be lost
Pot snot.
The irony of a litteral prince talking about democracy.
Thanks Harry and wishing you and your family all the best 💖
As it ever was…..
Help me understand this: a man born into office is preaching to the world about democracy. What am I missing here?
Fantastic speech. Very ProudOfPrinceHarry
SussexOnly Apparently, it’s the ‘erosion of democracy’ - the irony is real !
Mandela stood for everything Harry doesn’t: resilience, loyalty, steadfastness, devotion to family/country, mental fortitude, racial reconciliation (Harry ignites racial conflict), combat of poverty (Harry lines his own pockets). Madiba was Father of his Nation. Harry fled his
He spoke sense! very well said. He is using his voice for the good of humanity PrinceHarryAtTheUN
Harry and Meghan made the choice to give up their His / Her Royal Highness (HRH) titles. Harry should no longer be referred to as 'Prince'.
Die dom poes weet fokkol. Laat hy in n shack kom bly vir n maand. Dan wil ek sy kak storie weer hoor. Useless poes!
Even the US liberal network msnbc is not buying this crap. PrinceHarryAtTheUN “The British royal offered an insipid, cliché-laden take that only further watered down the anti-apartheid icon's story.”
Duke of Sussex That title was strip off and given to me, the moment the prodigal son said gogo can I have all what my mother had for me...and he left the palace. Duke? Don't start........
Cecil John Rhodes would agree with his selective West difinition of the world. Putin would give him a global difinition.
How's Uncle Andrew doing? Are you letting him out to play?

Says the decendant of the same family and ruling class that forcibly and violently subjegated millions around the world... aristocracycangetfucked
When last were you in South Africa Harry? You not exactly well informed of the current situation, that's for sure.
Motivating speech, and Prince Harry has done more good for people than those people who are just negative n do nothing! Proud of you Harry.

Very powerful and heartfelt speech from our Prince 🫅 Thank you PrinceHarry PrinceHarryAtTheUN NelsonMandelaDay MandelaDay
Very thoughtful speech
The Duke and Duchess of Chaos need to shut up and sit down. I don't want to hear the Social Justice Warrior bullshit from someone whose ancestor lost the war against the Forefathers of the greatest nation in the world...The United States of America.
He (& Meghan Markle who they hate for obvious reasons) will be attacked by fright wing extremists, Fascist propaganda media like FoxNews, as well as the equally Fascist GOP on every level for the next 24 hrs +! USProgressives TheBlackCaucus AP MSNBC TheView AnaKasparian
