Hello my name is:Nelson Mandela. I was born on July 18, 1918. I was educated at the University College of Fort Hare. I joined the National African Congress in 1944. I was also the first South African president in a fully representive democratic election. Before I had presidency I was an anti-arpatheid activists. In 1962 I was arrested and convicted of sabotage and other charges and sentenced his life to prison. I was brought to stand trial for over throwing the government with violence. I was arrested for all of these charges. Even though I deserved to be in prison for life and the group Umkhonto we Sizwe I was only put the charge to be in prison for five whole years. But later on in 1964 I was put in prison for life, from 1968 to 1982. During my years in prison my reputation started growing steadily. I was widely accepted as the most significant Black leader in South Africa. I was released from prison in 1990. After being realeased from prison I plunged myself into my life's work trying to obtain the goals that I and other's were trying to accomplish decades ago. In 1993 I was given the Nobel Peace award in belong of all South Africans that suffered and sacrificed so much to bring peace to their land. The Era of the apartheid came to an end in April 27,1994. Nelson Mandela is a great influence to lots of people these day and we should honor him this Black History Month.
What did Nelson Mandela do?
Nelson accomplishment was to stop apartheids, which he did. He sacrificed himself by being put in prison for lots of years. Mandela argued for many if his people. He did change the world and I think that everyone should honor him for his great accomplishments. Yes, Nelson is still alive with the age of 92. We should think about lots of people who made a difference in our world such a Nelson. Because of lots of people we live in a better world.
