On Friday in Johannesburg, dozens of South African chefs, community cooks, caterers, and culinary students came together to prepare 67,000 liters (17,700 gallons) of soup to help feed the hungry in honor of Nelson Mandela Day. International Nelson Mandela Day, officially recognized by the United Nations in 2009, invites people to mark the birthday and legacy of South Africa’s first Black president by dedicating 67 minutes to service — symbolizing his 67 years of public commitment. France24 correspondent Tom Canetti reports from South Africa.
