Mandela visit sparks Boston bid for independent black city

Activists in Boston's black neighborhoods push to form a separate city named Mandela to control land development schools and police. They cite Mandela's visit as a boost to their long efforts, linking self rule to South African anti apartheid history. The plan faced past defeats in 1986 and 1988 referendums and mixed local support.

Mandela welcomed by ecstatic crowds in Boston

Nelson Mandela arrived at Logan Airport to cheering supporters waving ANC banners and dancing as he praised Boston for its anti apartheid leadership. At a JFK Library luncheon he thanked Sen Edward Kennedy for sanctions advocacy and urged Boston students to stay in school and pursue education as a path to leadership.
