when mandela died, many worried that south africa had lost its moral compass. they may now wonder whether it's lost its guiding light. yeah. we have some correspondence on the story . we have julian wolf, life for us in cape town. but 1st let's go to our correspondent family, the miller, whose joining us from so wet. so that's close to johannesburg, which is where it desmond tutu, lives, and, and family them. so talk to us about the significance of so west, so where the archbishop once lived as we're saying and, and what's the mood like today? hey paul, this is val across the street in so where to and it's not only we, the archbishop desmond to, to live, but also nelson mandela, the only street in the world where to nobel laureates. loved. and this is also why the series or such as significant in terms of people who've visited, to pay homage to those leaders. and now we're seeing people trickling in laying flowers, speaking to the media just about the loss of that they're experiencing in terms of what we heard. 6 as a guiding light or was a guiding light for ma

because while mandela was the political states, person, mandela's own persona, transcendent that and while too too was in many ways the spiritual father of the nation, including muslims and hindus, by the way. and he spoke a political language also. so in some ways been really complemented each other. south africa of course, will be much the poorer without then em. let's inevitably. so having said that, they also did present it, i think, and he wasn't ignore this lady presented strong structures. of course, the african national congress is considerably weakened over the years, and the church should that desmond headed, has become much less prophetic and engagement society over the years. but on the whole, m, with the inspiration and other organizational ideological formations inside the country, the country is quite strong constitutionally, in terms of the freedom of the press, a personal freedoms, the bill of rights and so on. and it is in back that the legacy of these people and the institutions that they are represented and will continue to look out for a very long time that david

eventually mandela was released, but the advent of democracy presented tutu with new challenges in a that he now dubbed "the rainbow nation". often in tears, tutu presided over south africa's truth and reconciliation commission, seeking to expose and to heal the wounds of apartheid. he specialised in forgiveness, but with accountability. and that pursuit ofjustice continued, especially when south africa's democratic politicians plunged into corruption. i am warning you that we will pray as we prayed for the downfall of the apartheid government, we will pray for the downfall of a government that misrepresents us. inevitably, desmond tutu made enemies, but his genius was for winning people over, one could say for provoking love. he certainly wants that when he dies the epitaph will be very clear — that desmond tutu loved, he laughed, he cried, and that is what he was, he was always a man of tremendous joy. the one thing that helps desmond tutu stand out and occupy this unique place in south african history is that he was there at every step of the way through this country's tortuous jo

even mandela was annoyed and expressed annoyance publicly. really also, when he was president, slammed archbishop tutu when he said people should not vote for the anc if the anc is corrupt. so sadly, you know, for many, many years, people did not listen to due due in the post-apartheid era. i think if you look back, we have our local elections in november this year. and for the first time since the end of apartheid, the anc actually lost local government elections. they got 45%. so clearly, perhaps people in the end did listen to desmond tutu. that they should not vote for the anc, the party they may have supported, if the pear is corrupt. >> professor, i'm grateful you joined us this morning. thank you. >>> allow me to update you with the reaction from those around the world. chief executive of the immediately foundation this morning is saying, "the arch meant everything to me, i first met him during the work of the truth and reconciliation committee, was privileged to work with him on a number of projects over the years. he was a friend to

eventually mandela was released, but the advent of democracy presented tutu with new challenges in aountry that he now dubbed "the rainbow nation". often in tears, tutu presided over south africa's truth and reconciliation commission, seeking to expose and to heal the wounds of apartheid. he was a man of unwavering courage, a principal conviction and whose life was spent in the service of others. he, in many ways, embodied the essence of humanity. he specialised in forgiveness, but with accountability. and that pursuit ofjustice continued, especially when south africa's democratic politicians plunged into corruption. i am warning you that we will pray as we prayed for the downfall of the apartheid government, we will pray for the downfall of a government that misrepresents us. inevitably, desmond tutu made enemies, but his genius was for winning people over, one could say for provoking love. he certainly wants that when he dies the epitaph will be very clear — that desmond tutu loved, he laughed, he cried, and that is what he was, he was always a man of tremendous joy. the one thing

desmond tutu was somebody at the height of the anti—apartheid struggle who, when nelson mandela addede in the struggle be locked up, browsed the faithful, inspired people. desmond tutu was fearless, condemning the brutal apartheid state, but also urging black south africans to shun violence, to remain united. in 1984 desmond tutu was awarded the nobel peace prize. when freedom finally arrived, he did not fade into the background. instead, often in tears, he presided over a truth and reconciliation commission, shining a light on tight victims and on its perpetrators. in later years, continuing to speak out, condemning corruption, criticising south africa was my own liberation heroes when they lost their way. i liberation heroes when they lost their wa . ., liberation heroes when they lost their wa . . ., , ., ., their way. i am warning you. i am warnin: their way. i am warning you. i am warning you _ their way. i am warning you. i am warning you that _ their way. i am warning you. i am warning you that we _ their way. i am warning you. i am warning you that we will- their way. i am war

um, i think 2nd only to nelson mandela and it was nelson mandela who had previously spoken about the archbishop in terms of the role he played against enter in the fight against apartheid. this was somebody who and political leaders were either in exile or imprisoned. just like nelson mandela, the archbishop kept the fires burning in terms of confronting the justices of a part 8 or within the, his religious role within the church. and outside of that, this is somebody who in 1980 was the 1st of black leader to confront of the former minister p w border. and that meeting might not have resulted in very much, but it was historical. it was symbolic in that he had wanted to confront to these issues. head on was speaking for people in the country who were marginalized and through that became both a national and global icon. indeed. and of course, looking at various social media and, and obit. so across global newspapers to day for me to one thing that to several commentators have said that it will be an injustice to the late archbishop not to talk about the other campaigns campaigns for.

this is jasmine to, to hearing the news that nelson mandela would soon be released. he was seldom one to contain his feelings. it just triggered me off this to twos responses, head of south africa, the truth and reconciliation commission on hearing details of atrocities committed by both sides is not just mentioned. then we have a blessed fund desmond and pillow to to was born in a mining town outside johannesburg at a time of strict segregation, things would get much worse. as he grew up to 2 was 17. when the national party came to power in 1948, racial inequality became law. apartheid. he wanted to be a doctor, but became a teacher instead witnessing 1st hand the government's policy of depriving black south africans of education, consigning them to servitude. and the protests that followed the shop like the shop fil massacre in 1960. ringback 69 people were killed and most of them were short in the bank as you're running away, protesting against the past. i remember as a moment when you realize that black life was cheap, the 22 must have thought he could do more in

in fact, if there was in one, she was saying it was going to be nothing. mandela but nesa mandela is late as well . and i me see, it's a giant legacy, the huge shoes, you know, he leaves behind and in your words, what did he consider his work in the country to be done? this is lynn m wants to see update coming to an end. this is what the 4th one on monday, la, an adams winn prison, detach. if that, yes, you did, because a potted came to an end. $8099.00 to full. we saw a democratic government coming in. did he end in quality? no. notice not really, but he went a bit, the tick very white despite in trying to and that him to do himself who admit that he has done his part is now left for on the south africans while live now to do the upbeat in the upper level assembled a things like racism, things like in the quality at things that he knows that he is not accomplished. and he has confirmed that, but a st. lift now to south africans that are leaving to make sure that to be uplifted, this legacy of to 2. and the likes of mandela a of making sure that all south africans are if one, the cor
