Britain’s Prince Harry will address the U.N. General Assembly at its annual celebration Monday of Nelson Madela International Day and is expected to speak about the legacy of the South African anti-apartheid leader who spent 27 years in prison and became his country’s first Black leader.
The 37-year-old Duke of Sussex will be the keynote speaker at the U.N. event and South Africa’s U.N. Mission said Friday his remarks “will be around the memories and legacy of Mandela and what has been learned from his struggle and his life that can help up face the new challenges in the world today.”
