Make Poverty History - Nelson Mandela

Sometimes it falls upon a generation to be great. It is time for us to act now to overcome poverty. I love what Nelson Mandela says in this video. The goal is achievable. We have to stop looking the other way. peace, vicki

One man's ripple in the ocean can build into a wave as the love he sends forth touches others and they in turn touch someone else. 'Happy Birthday' Nelson Mandela. :o) You started the wave that carries the tune of a World United in peace, love, compassion, and knowledge...that wave is now a tsunami and growing every day until finally we will all be smiling together for each other. :o) My sincerest gratitude and deepest respects to you on your 90th Birthday Sir.

I have no god damn clue where this message came from. I just saw it in that new feature from youtube, someone must have used my computer and wrote this. It's 6 months ago and I havent even watched this video, I'm apologize for any offence that comment have made.

This man is awesome. His actions won't be forgotten.

Poverty is the lagest crime.Yeah,make poverty history.

Any time humanity wants to have this planet work for all with no one left out it can be done. Certainly just trade, debt cancellation and high quality aid are part of the how. The monopoly of land and natural resources is where colonialism started and whether denial of access to land continues to this day by foreign corporations or indigenous elites it must finally be dealt with. A simple economic fact is that land value is created by society as a whole. It therefore belongs 100% to all of us.

In a world of faceless, high-speed mass production, our range of beautifully handcrafted home, gift and jewellery items stands apart. Each item reflects the creativity and skill of the craft worker who made it. Tearcraft exists to benefit skilled craftspeople from some of the world's poorest communities. Join us in bringing transformation and fresh hope to people living in poverty.

Yes,We really need to make poverty history. So,let us all participate in the campaign of the UN "Stand Up &Take Action" against poverty.The event will be held by the UN between 17 & 19th of October08 where they want general masses to participate in some form to fulfill the 8 goals of the MDG. So,are you participating..?

if for years and in fact centuries european economies grew from the forcible taking of natural resources from colonialized countries, how exactly does "aid" and "cancelling of debt" qualify as borrowing from as you put it the "white market?"
