Wilson Statement on the Passing of Iconic Leader Nelson Mandela	2013-12-05	2013	2013-12	Democrat	House	FL	Frederica Wilson	W000808	web.archive.org			legacy	Miami— Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson (FL-24), released the following statement about the passing of South Africa’s first black president, anti-apartheid leader Nelson Mandela. “The world will probably never again see a man of Nelson Mandela’s courage and conviction. He was truly a remarkable and inspirational human being to have endured 27 years as a political prisoner and to respond with forgiveness and reconciliation. President Mandela inspired a movement for freedom and equality that not only transformed South Africa but also humanity. Nelson Mandela was a man of steel and a symbol of peace. He was a gift from God to this world.” ### Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson is a second-term Congresswoman from Florida representing parts of Northern Miami-Dade and Southeast Broward counties. A former state legislator and school principal, she is the founder of the 5000 Role Models for Excellence Project, a mentoring program for young males at risk of dropping out of school. Along with Congressman Bill Posey, Congresswoman Corrine Brown, and Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart, Congresswoman Wilson serves as founding Co-Chair of the Florida Ports Caucus, a bipartisan taskforce that coordinates federal action in support of Florida’s harbors and waterways.	1	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
