What two people were responsible for the peaceful end to apartheid?

Well, the conventional answer would be Nelson R. Mandelaand Frederick W. de Klerk, as they shared a Nobel Prize for bringing an end to Apartheid.Actually it was a lot more complicated than that, and hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions, of people were involved.Apartheid was brought to its end by mass resistance to its cruelty, by internal campaigns of disobedience, of peaceful resistance and sabotage of state installations and armed resistance, and by the actions of countless caring and brave people outside South Africa who marched, donated, boycotted and spoke up about Apartheid for decades.If you were one of those, thank you very much!
