I knew they would eventually come for me. When I visited Nelson Mandela's prison cell on Robbens Island in 2012, I prayed in silence, alone, for about 10 minutes and asked God to give me the strength that he gave Mandela when they came for him. When they came, my specialized training in the art of social justice Lawfare enabled me to survive a law enforcement lynching.
