Happy birthday, Nelson Mandela! (July 18, 1918)

One of the most famous freedom fighters in the history of Africa, Nelson Mandela was born into a prominent Xhosa family in Mvezo, South Africa. He studied law and worked as a lawyer in Johannesburg before involving himself in the struggle against apartheid, the system of racial segregation imposed by South Africa's ruling white minority. He joined the African National Congress, which he would later go on to lead, as well as the South African Communist Party, having come to embrace socialism and Pan-Africanism. He was originally committed to nonviolent protest, but ultimately founded the uMkhonto we Sizwe ("Spear of the Nation" in Xhosa), the ANC's paramilitary wing, and led them in violent resistance to the apartheid government. Mandela was captured and imprisoned for 27 years, becoming an internationally-recognized political prisoner and representative of the anti-apartheid struggle before his release in 1990. Mandela was instrumental in negotiating the end of apartheid, and in South Africa's first multiracial elections, was elected President. He served from 1994 to 1999, overseeing a reckoning with apartheid's legacy, as well as introducing moderate social reforms, though never pursuing particularly radical policies. After leaving office, Mandela remained an elder statesman and an international figure until his death in 2013.

everyone knows about this meme, right?

but does anyone else know the woman who made the food? no? time to educate!

This is “Mother Mary”, the owner of Blackberry’s mother.

She made all the cakes for the restaurant while it was open. Chef Gordon Ramsay tried her red velvet cake, and spoke this meme-able line:

He then called Mary over, complimented her food, and gave her a peck on the cheek.

Look how happy she was to hear that!!!
