Nelson Mandela

I want to think a bit about Nelson Mandela: his legacy as a leader, who he was as a human being, the impact of his presence and ideas on his nation, the continent of Africa and the world. I want to create something small to express something about him, or the connection between him and me.

You, too?

Let's create something (anything, any medium, any size or shape or form, from a story to a thoughtful essay to a piece of art to a scarf to an ornament to ...?) and send a short note about our thinking process and creating process to one partner.

Please have great ratings and a few swaps under your belt. Feel free to contact me with questions/ concerns -- I always contact folks whose ratings give me pause and usually offer 1:1 swaps to them or to anyone else who has concerns about public swaps.
