Archbishop Desmond Tutu has died at the age of 90

 


Nobel Peace Prize winner and former Archbishop Desmond Tutu has died at the age of 90, according to an announcement by South Africa’s president.⁠

An uncompromising foe of apartheid — South Africa’s brutal regime of oppression against the Black majority — Tutu worked tirelessly, though non-violently, for its downfall.⁠

"The passing of Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu is another chapter of bereavement in our nation’s farewell to a generation of outstanding South Africans who have bequeathed us a liberated South Africa," said South African Pres. Cyril Ramaphosa.⁠
