Former Archbishop Desmond Tutu, South Africa's Nobel Peace Prize-winning icon, died Sunday at 90. Tutu's passionate voice helped end South Africa's brutal apartheid regime that oppressed its Black majority for decades. World leaders, South Africans and people around the globe mourned his death and praised the life he lived and the legacy he leaves behind, including his more recent work as an activist for racial justice and LGBTQ rights.
