Winnie Mandela Page #4

That is my cake.

Your wedding cake? In here?

Aw.

Your wedding cake.

- No.

- No, hey!

Get your hands off my wife!

Not bad.

Let's go.

Are you all right?

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

You have no right to do this.

Sorry, our hands are tied.

Tied? You are supposed to be doctors.

You can see our resources are

limited, but we do the best we can.

Here, sweetie.

- Are you scared?

- Scared of what?

- Of hiring me?

- Why?

Because you're Mandela's wife?

The police can be very persuasive.

It would be a privilege

to have you working here.

At Sharpeville, an

industrial township near Johannesburg,

thousands gathered

outside a police station

in protest against new laws requiring every

African to carry a pass at all times.

The crowd refused to disperse,

- and the police opened fire.

All right,

let us know whatever we need.

Most of these people have been shot

in the back.

My God! Have the security

police gone mad?

Mr. Mandela, what is it

that the Africans want?

They want political independence

on the basis of one man, one vote.

What is the likelihood of violence?

The reaction of the government

to our stay at home,

ordering a general mobilization,

arming the white community,

arresting 10,000 South Africans.

There are many people who feel

that it is useless for us to continue

talking peace and non-violence

against a government

whose reply is only savage attacks.

The blacks have the moral high ground

at the moment.

Yeah.

We have to move quickly, get to their

leaders before they gather momentum.

You know,

my father warned me this day would come.

But I didn't think it

would be this soon.

I love you.

I love you.

Whatever happens, the peoples

of South Africa will be liberated.

The men are being trained for the

possibility of an armed conflict.

The people are demanding blood.

Some of the world's leaders see this

Mandela through rose-tinted glasses.

That is a grave error.

Not only is he a very dangerous native,

but a Communist, through and through!

He must be stopped at all costs!

Your daddy will be so proud.

Where's the father?

Away.

Relax, Nelson. We'll bluff it through.

Afternoon.

Good afternoon, Mr. Mandela.

Nice car.

Now, would you mind stepping

out of the vehicle, please?

- Winnie! Winnie!

- What is the matter?

Listen to the radio.

South Africa's

most wanted man, Nelson Mandela,

was arrested near Howick in Natal today,

wearing one of his many disguises,

this time, as a chauffeur.

Mr. Mandela was taken into custody

and charged with sabotage and treason.

As you can see, we're here

at the so-called Rivonia Trial,

where Nelson Mandela and co-accused...

...face a possible death
