Nelson Mandela is considered a great leader because of his unwavering commitment to fighting for equality and justice in South Africa. He showed remarkable resilience during his 27 years of imprisonment, and upon his release, he worked tirelessly to end apartheid and bring about a peaceful transition to democracy. Mandela's ability to forgive and reconcile with his oppressors further solidified his legacy as a visionary and compassionate leader.
He turned to violent acts when the government banned the ANC, instead of giving up the fight against apartheid. Before he was imprisoned he said a speech in court. During his speech he mentioned that he was willing to die for his cause (ending apartheid), this gained him respect and supporters whilst he was in prison. These supporters campaigned against apartheid for Mandela whilst he was in prison. In the end the government couldn't take any more of the struggle (due to isolation of sport and economic sanctions), so they offered Mandela a release if he would in return stop the anti-apartheid campaigners. Mandela did not accept this offer, he said he will not leave prison unless apartheid is stopped. Eventually the government agreed, Mandela was released (after 27 years of imprisonment), and this was the beginning of the ending of apartheid. Soon after he was released blacks gained the right to vote, Mandela was elected president, he could then put blacks' rights into use let black and white people in South Africa live together in harmony.
Nelson Mandela fought for black people rights during apartheid and spent 27 years of his life in prison. F.W. de Klerk released him from prison when he unbanned the ANC. Nelson Mandela also became the first black president in South Africa. Like the same thing in the US- Obama first black president of the United States. Mandela also wanted whites to be treated equally, too. Nelson Mandela Quote- "For to be free is not merely to cast off ones chains, but to live in a way of respects and enhance the freedom of others."
Nelson Mandela did not personally kill anyone. However, during his time as a leader in the African National Congress, the organization did engage in armed resistance against the apartheid government. Some violence and deaths occurred as a result, but Mandela himself was imprisoned for 27 years and advocated for reconciliation and non-violence after his release.
Indeed it is. There was a huge issue regarding Apartheid in South Africa. The effect of which meant that the Rugby team were not invited to play other countries. Then with the release of Nelson Mandela came a different attitude to people in South Africa.
Nelson Mandela was arrested 5 August 1962 and released from prison 2 February 1990. Pro-apartheid South African president, P.W. Botha, had a stroke in 1989 and Botha's replacement, Frederik Willem de Klerk, freed Mandela. Botha had once offered Nelson Mandela release from jail in 1985, but only on the condition that Mandela would stop the armed conflict. Nelson Mandela chose to stay in prison as he believed it was the right thing to do in order to put an end to apartheid.
