Desmond Tutu: Body of South African hero to be aquamated



The funeral service for South Africa's Archbishop Desmond Tutu took place on Saturday. On Jan 1.

Young activists stood in line on Friday to pay their respects to the anti-apartheid hero whose body lay in state at St George's Cathedral in Cape Town. The death of South Africa's most revered peace prize winner, retired archbishop of Cape Town, Reverend Leonard Tutu, was mourned across racial and cultural divides in the country. "We as young activists believe the Arch stood for the same values that we want to aspire to in society," Irfaan Mangera, a pro-Palestinian South African activist, said as he waited in the long queue.
