In this quote, Nelson Mandela is telling us to try to hang onto our humanity. Humanity is a mixture of all the good and bad that makes up the individual. It is what makes you unique and different from everyone else. It is what makes you a person of value.

Mandela states that we should cherish our humanity and not let anyone else take it from us. We must be aware of what is going on around us and not let others take advantage of our humanity.
