Nelson Mandela at Home and School

Today was a great day at school, as usual. Right now me and my classmates are working on "Long Walk to Freedom"a memoir from Nelson Mandela. I thought the memoir was lame. It was about the hardships of obtaining freedom. Though,I do know that I have to have a past in order to have a future,I didn't like the story. He was just reminising about all of the darkness and racism in the past.He wasn't specific enough about his good times. I know freedom is something I take advantage of but, it was depressing. It made me think that he needed to start looking toward the future. He is very wise, but I think he needs to understand that everything is not darkness and racism.
