"I am told that you no longer wish for me to honor my duties to serve you as your king because of the color of the wife I have chosen. South Africa's racialist disease has infected all our neighboring countries and us. Look around you! Our schools, hospitals, churches, all segregated in practice if not in law. Are we to now uphold the abomination that is apartheid in our own culture? The very same abomination that has been oppressing us for decades! Is this to the future for our Africa? We should not be fighting for segregation! We should be fighting for equality! That is where we should be focusing our minds, not on the wife I have chosen, who means you no harm! Whose only apparent crime has been to fall in love with me, and mine to fall in love with her! I cannot serve you without her by my side, but I cannot force you to accept this! Africa can never be free until all those who live in her, white and black, recognize that race must have no bearing on equality and justice! I am ready to serve you, because I love my people! I love this land! But I love my wife!"
