Desmond Tutu was a moral voice for South Africa and the world (Obituary)

Desmond Tutu was a moral voice for South Africa and the world (Obituary)

Cape Town, Dec 26 (UNI) One of the world’s most respected spiritual and human rights leaders, Archbishop Desmond Tutu was a living testament to faith in action, insuppressible in his opposition against the evils of racism, oppression, intolerance, and injustice not just during apartheid South Africa, but wherever in the world he saw moral wrongs, especially impacting the most vulnerable and voiceless in society.
Although he was a Christian leader in his official work, atheists, agnostics, Muslims, Jews, Hindus and people of all religions have been led and guided by him.
Every public action that he took was based in his deep Christian faith and his personification of Ubuntu which gave his words and actions immense moral gravitas.
