Sad news today. South African human rights activist Nelson Mandela has died today at the age of 95:

After being detained as a political prisoner for 27 years, Mandela went on to become President of South Africa.

If anyone thinks we should just give up at all the work we've been involved in, Mandela's experiences should prove otherwise. The only way we're going to win the fights we've been fighting is to keep at it.
