- Archbishop Desmond Tutu, the South African anti-apartheid icon, has died at the age of 90. In 1984 Desmond Tutu won the Nobel Peace Prize for his work fighting to end white minority rule in South Africa. After the fall of apartheid, Archbishop Tutu chaired the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, where he pushed for restorative justice. He was a leading voice for human rights and peace around the world. He opposed the Iraq War and condemned the Israeli occupation in Palestine, comparing it to apartheid South Africa. We reair two interviews Archbishop Tutu did on Democracy Now!, as well as two speeches on the Iraq War and the climate crisis.

A True humanitarian a True hero. RIP the world has lost a Great Man.
He is still living through those who seek the guidance and love he shared in his physical life ❤️
This is why I watch Democracy Now no sugar coated fake news and Amy deserves long over due recognitions Nationwide & International .
Absolutely🤜🤛
I def agree
He deserved the Nobel Peace Prize. R.I.P Desmond Tutu. A good man and huge loss.❤🕊
Not like Obama; he killed hundreds to get his noble prize.
@@Stop-and-listen Hundreds, you must mean hundreds of thousands! Libya, Syria, Afghanistan... he was installed by the national insecurity state! JPOC with Iran was bait for his white backlash superceder.
Every so often the right people are actually rewarded this prize.
He diy get one
@Janne Turpeinen world knows them name who knows yours
Imagine a world with 100 Desmond Tutus in the US senate…. May his soul Rest In Peace
The Great Sage has departed but he will not abandon us - look for him in the whirlwind! The Great Tutu. 🕊

@@terencedrakes5291 Thank you! I agree with what you said about Tutu!♥️🕊🐞 he is with us now. Watching what we do with all that he shared/ taught us. God help us figure this out! Together we are better. Hopefully some day we will all see what Desmond saw. The good. The good in each other. The good in what we destroy & the good in Ourselves. Without it. We are blind and beyond incapable ♥️🧡♥️🌼💨✌🦉onward and upwards!
@@joanneadahk124 𓋹𓂀𓋹𓂀𓋹 Ms. Joanne, your words are as eloquent as the royal scribes of yore, you must write! If you do not - start! If you do already - write more! Surely the gift is meant to be shared, no? 𓋹𓂀𓋹𓂀𓋹
@@terencedrakes5291 your kindness lifted my week. My Grandma found out yesterday someone in her building has covid so she is officially locked in her apartment for the next two weeks. I really appreciate the compliment 🤗🐞♥️🥰 have a fabulous year ahead!
Archbishop Tutu was a great man! He will be missed greatly. I love his personality, his charity, passion and love for all humankind. We need more religious leaders like this throughout the world!
A true hero in our era has passed. But his spirit will live on.
Yup, to the very end he defended human rights of those who were oppressed and/or without a voice. From LGBTQ+ and Palestine to Vaccine distribution (were the west is hogging them) and poverty.
A great man has passed :(
@@DehnusNorder Even in the RC church they had to speak well of him.
Thanks DN for all these wonderful nterviews and speeches from the great Archbishop Desmond Tutu to Rip in God's hands.🙏🙌👏 🇿🇦 Hope we have more ppl like him in power because we only have one world.
What a strong man, Desmond Tutu, May his legacy survive centuries.
@Janne Turpeinen If you've got to be anti-something, why not antisemitic?
A Great Man has departed this World! May God bless his Soul!😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Agreed!!!
I cried too.
Truly a giant among men. A gentle giant, a giant of the moral mind and the human condition. Hopefully his thoughts and efforts to produce a better world for all, will reverberate through the ages. "Yippie" to you Desmond Tutu!
@Mo Gasim Thank you
Archbishop Desmon Tutu's spirits will guide us from above. Compassion, integrity, transparency and accountability for all!
A big part of my life and childhood, I could always look to this man for the moral high. I'll miss him :(.
A great human being has died, may he rest in peace. We should all learn from him regardless.
I remember this man when we stood against apartheid in New Zealand. A black day for All Black's
I just wanna say I freaking love you and appreciate you so much, Amy Goodman. This is pure gold. 🙏🏼
Bringing the good and the bad - but always truth.
The frankenshots violate the Nuremberg Code.
@@ResistEvolve How is that an appropriate response to my comment? 🧐
@@kimberlychappell5555 Medical totalitarianism and the coup against liberal democracy is clearly the biggest issue in America today. Robert Kennedy Jr. has the best selling book in America she doesn't have him on the show.
I am 68, I remember him and his stand
God bless him
Archbishop Desmond Tutu... a noble human being, an exemplary life from our home, Planet Earth. A statesman who stood up for the people of Palestine. A rare person who had the moral courage to remind people, including political leaders of powerful nations, that the Apartheid Israel occupation of Palestine is not acceptable in our community of world nations. Archbishop Tutu - a unique & courageous human being, a gentle man. He, like Nelson Mandela & Muhammed Ali, gave me hope, gave me strength to continue to resist evil. (Frm NZ)
Amy, Democracy Now, where are we without you? You are our conscience that shines thru especially when we need you the most. Democracy Now, a rare flicker of hope! Yet, why do we feel so hopeless?
Not just hope - she & Juan bring The Truth in the world.
Get involved in local causes. In local organizing, unionizing, etc...You'll redescover hope. You are not alone and the road ahead is long and bumpy. Buckle up.
The mandated frankenshots violate the Nuremberg Code. Some "journalist"!
Desmond Tutu was a great man, may he rest in peace and his eternal reward be great.
Thank you for this.
A great loss of wisdom & humanity in a world of seemingly never-ending conflict. Without "preaching" he emphasized the true aspects of religion - love to one another. 🙏🏻❤
Great send off for a man of God.
Gifts happen too. Grateful for Desmond Tutu.
RIP & POWER ARCHBISHOP DESMOND TUTU
You will truly be missed… such an inspiration for us all.
" When man sees a caterpillar, God sees a butterfly " R.I.P to a champion of humanity.
The Man was a Femminist and I love Him. Surely he will be missed.
This pains me to just hear of such a beautiful human being. I'm grateful knowing that we all had such a wonderful peaceful spirit on this Earth. My you Rest in enternal peace. God bless your Family, Thank you for this .
Thank You GOD for the blessed life and contribution of this great peace maker. May his soul Rest In Peace ✝️
I named my son after this great man. Rest in Power, your life's work will never be forgotten
REST IN POWER ARCHBISHOP DESMOND TUTU. GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN.
A true South African.. or the South Africans we all ought to strive to be
Rest In Peace Desmond Tutu a real human being
'There's not very much God can do without you.' Truest words ever spoken and words we must live by with all of our collective energy for worldwide peace and justice for the planet and all sentient beings.
Amazing video. Thank you for putting all this together.
Arch Bishop Desmond Tutu You, You are a leader who served the humanity with dedication to help them to live a better life
We need a leader like you here in my country, which was once called the pearl of the Indian Ocean. This is a great country like Africa ruined by corrupt politicians.
We thank Amy for producing this video, which is priceless to me. May Rev Arch Bishop RIP
Condolences to Bishop Tutu's family & community.
A good life.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God. 🕊
-Matthew 5:9
In direct opposition to your guys. Against Palestinian apartheid, against Iraq war, against American imperialism.
He will be missed.
I met this man in Alabama at my church and was just talking about him with a woman from south Africa the other day,go figure . the stars align.
RIP Desmond Tutu! 🇿🇦🇿🇦 The world should pay attention to the humanitarian crisis and Genocide that is taking place in Tigray where Ethiopia and Eritrea are committing war crimes supported by China, Turkey, UAE and Iran.
Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela were some of the visionary leaders that gave birth to the new and democratic South Africa through their struggles and moral leadership 🇿🇦 May their legacies guide and inspire the current and future generation of South African leaders to combat corruption, xenophobia, racism, inequities, poverty, crimes and violence!
South Africa should be a role model for other African countries where despotic regimes are destroying the continent funded by foreign powers, including the tyrannical regimes such as those in Ethiopia, Eritrea and Somalia.
Ethiopia’s regime (led by a “Nobel peace prize winner”) is currently starving millions of people in Tigray, using hunger as a weapon of war and killing innocent civilians with imported drones from Iran, UAE, Turkey and China.
Thank you for sharing these insights.
RIP Mr Tutu. A true a gift to humanity 👍🏾👋🏿👊🏿🙏🏿
"Collateral Damage is an obscenity" - Archbishop Desmond Tutu 🕊
Democracy Now, is the last line of Journalistic integrity.
Desmond Tutu... was the MLK of South Africa. A true (Humanitarian) and freedom fighter 💪🏿 🙌🏾 👏🏾 Rip 🙏🏾 Sir!!
Tutu was a Superhero.
This is gold. I love Amy Goodman and I'm so very glad she's still around doing her thing.
South Africans stand for peace ❤❤🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Tutu did not pull his punches! God bless him!
What a riveting segment.
Nobel peace prize and sainthood, and his monument and words in every city, a beautiful human Barb
Do you think antisemitism makes anyone a good force on Earth? You cause immense grief to the nation that you hate with no self reflection. Bravo.
R. I. P. Desmond Tutu.
RIP father of Africa 😭
Thomas Sankara.
Thanks be to he who makes me a better human being.
...who makes me love.
Long May He Reign.
No to communism, no to capitalism.
In memory of Desmond Tutu
unfortunately Apartheid is still the same in South Africa and America has learned this lesson Weill
Israhell is an Apartheid prison state.
A wonderful inspiring reason to keep fighting and share our truths that affect the World. People that did not mind being called whatever to help other People are heroes. They do not stop fighting because menaces of society in every field do not like them. Strong supporters of righteousness do not stop fighting, reading, learning, and moving forward no matter what immature People tries to place them in some kind of non-factor materlistic nonsense. u
Amazing man and a great loss 🥲
YES TO democracy right NOW, with dear diry amy, thank you teacher goodmann
rest in peace
noam chomsky is you fan 2,.-) rest in peace, from vienna, :-(
thanx to u2, santana, bob & friend;-)
This man was like Yoda! Haha.
I’m Ash. Junior at UC Berkeley. Political Science. I am studying the aspects of restorative justice versus retributive justice at the moment for the Human Rights course. I am genuinely struggling to understand how can any Ukrainian who suffered demonizing crimes from the Russians at first, has to forgive Russians. I guess what I struggle to accept is, that I can not forgive a person who killed my neighbors without them being punished legally first. How do I move on from this perspective???
A veteran true state man and a humanitarian may his soul rest in perfect peace.
BDS . Free Palestine!
The EU and Israel demonized him for his support of the Palestinians. He was called an antisemite by the ADL in 2012. Many other Zionist organizations followed.
These organizations are simply disgusting.
@@Stop-and-listen If Israel was a democracy the Keneset would pass anti-apartheid legislation. Israel is a tyranny of terrorist guerrillas not unlike the United States with its White Manifest Destiny.
I wish this man could have stayed with us longer, we need more REAL human beings who can transcend national and cultural boundaries with the same bold certainty, because right now we seem to be running low.
Isn't it illegal to say anything negative about Israel?
That's right if you do they'll get more Ashkenazi Jew physicists to make a bomb to blow up the whole world! I think they call it the Samsung option or some such biblical lore.
@Mo Gasim
What should really outrage people is, their own government is punishing its citizens on behalf of a foreign government. huh?
It's unheard of.
god bless u, with love from this world from viennatoday. greetthting to NELSON, no worries about ommmm cornna;-))))
REST IN LOVE still in PEACE & RESPCT, maestro. deine ART & weise, my wish in 2022, thank you, ali from iran. THANK YOU

4:00 He as brave. To go against the "establishment" is very risky.
Why does a boycott risk jailtime? republicanism support for apartheid sounds bad during reagan, and sadly looks worse now during trump.
Had many friends
Faith w/o work's is DEAD🙏.
Why is Professor Dershowitz hates him?
I wasnt crazy about him
you gay?
@Mo Gasim ideation? ok karenia
False equivalency
The terrorist communist ANC government turned against Tutu for his criticism of their corrupt dealings and one man one vote stance.
RIP South Africa!
Aah hear they come out of the woodwork. So you prefer one white man one vote in another man's land? The ANC has indeed been corrupted like all politicians get, but they never were terrorist nor communist, that is only the stuff your apartheid master's used to scare you with.
South Africa lives and shall thrive. Blessings to you and yours this 2022.
I am warning you out of love

No one can ever say or figure what TuTu's work impacted? Nothing actually if we see reality. He was a great Man, like all such great men. Pathetic channels like Bureaucracy Now have made an economy of these Men and sometimes women.
People like Tutu are figureheads for mass movements. People power ended apartheid.
