ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「The image of Nelson Mandela, the anti-apartheid leader who died in 2013, is everywhere in South Africa. The country’s currency bears his face, at least 32 streets are named for him and nearly two dozen statues in his image watch over a country in flux. Every year on July 18, his birthday, South Africans celebrate Mandela Day by volunteering for 67 minutes in honor of the 67 years that Mandela spent serving the country as an anti-apartheid leader, much of it behind bars. But 10 years after his death, attitudes have changed. The party Mandela led after his release from prison, the African National Congress, is in serious danger of losing its outright majority for the first time since he became president in 1994. Corruption, ineptitude and elitism have tarnished the ANC. Mandela’s image — which the ANC has plastered across the country — has for some shifted from that of hero to scapegoat. While Mandela is still lionized around the world, many South Africans, especially young people, believe that he did not do enough to create structural changes that would lift the fortunes of the country’s Black majority. White South Africans still hold a disproportionate share of the nation’s land and earn more than Blacks. One of the main gripes about the economy is the lack of jobs. The unemployment rate is 46% among South Africans aged 15 to 34. Tap the link in our bio to read more about how young people in South Africa are rethinking Mandela’s legacy.
