Thank you, Chair. Let me just say this to you, Chair. I am sorry, you can just see the attitude in how they stand up and speak because they don't understand the word - what it is to suffer and the word ubuntu. They don't know it.
They have never even heard the song of what we did in the struggle years. They do not know what it is to sleep and your mom and dad are woken up at night, the door is kicked open, and a light is shone on your mom and dad. They don't know those things. They don't know the humiliation; they have just heard about it. They have never seen it with their own eyes.
Today, all I want to say is: On Freedom Day, let us remember the heroines and heroes of this country - the people who paid with their blood. We are free today because we have said to ourselves - and I agree with what you have said, Madam Chair - we shall overcome. We have overcome and we will always succeed. We will never turn back. [Applause.]
