Ownership Quote by Oliver Tambo

“The land on which the cattle grazed was communal property. It was owned by no one. It was nobody's private farm. It was the common property of the people, shared by the people. So the practice of sharing was central to the concept of ownership of property.” quote by Oliver Tambo — Download Open image
