Nelson mandela is a very special man because he once stopped the huge, horrible apartheid in South Africa. All the South African people were not treated nice, in fact to me it was just silly. Everyone believed that the white people were better then the South African people. South African people had to serve the white people. People thought that white people were smarter and more important than the South African people. That was not true of course and Nelson Mandela was very strongly against it. Tell me if you can believe this. South African people were slaves for the white people, they couldn't even look each other in the eye or walk beside each other on the footpath. Thats just insane. There was even a white peoples drinking fountain and a South African peoples drinking fountain. White people and South African people weren't allowed to get married or go in the same shop. Nelson Mandela saved everyone in South Africa. The South African people are very grateful and relieved that Nelson Mandela came.
...and Greta, in his inaugural address, on May 10, 1994, as the President of the Republic of South Africe he said "...we shall build the society in which all of South Africa, both black and white, will be able to walk tall, without any fears in their hearts... - a rainbow nation at peace with itself and the world." Dad.
