Nelson Mandela - Long Walk To Freedom

Does Mandela think the oppressor is free? Why/Why not?

No, Mandela does not think that the oppressor is free. According to him, an oppressor is a prisoner of hatred, who is locked behind the bars of prejudice and narrow-mindedness. A person is not truly free if he is taking away someone else’s freedom. It is quite similar to that he is not free because of him being imprisoned. He thinks that both the oppressor and the oppressed are robbed of their humanity.
