“It is true that South Africa was often brought to the brink of destruction because of differences... Since we have achieved our freedom, there can only be one division amongst us: between those who cherish democracy and those who do not! As freedom loving people, we want to see our country prosper and provide basic services to all. For our freedom can never be complete or our democracy stable unless the basic needs of our people are met... As we rebuild our country, we should remain vigilant against the enemies of development and democracy, even if they come from within our own ranks. Violence will not bring us closer to our objectives. All of us should ask ourselves the question: Have I done everything in my power to bring about lasting peace and prosperity in my city and my country?”—Nelson Mandela, On Reconciliation, 1999What is the underlying message in Mandela's call to provide basic services to all South Africans?A The desire to establish South Africa as a welfare stateB The necessity of reparations for past injusticesC The connection between meeting basic needs and strengthening democracyD The desire to create an economically competitive nation on the global stage
