Donald Trump’s life

Nelson Mandela Born in a small village named Mvezo in South Africa, Nelson Mandela was originally named Rolihlahla Mandela. He grew up listening to the stories of the valour of his ancestors during the wars of resistance.

Nelson Mandela
In the early 1940s, he chose to study law at the University of Witwatersrand where he got to know people from all races and backgrounds.
During these years, he went on to join the African National Congress (ANC) in which a group of young Africans aimed to start a mass grassroots movement to voice the concerns of rural peasants and working people.
ANC accepted his effective ways of petitioning like boycotts, strikes, non-cooperation, and civil disobedience.
What ensued ahead was a long journey of defiance against the oppressive South African regime and its apartheid policies.

Mandela spent almost 27 years in prison. He was arrested and detained continuously and emerged as a potent symbol of black resistance. He was released in 1990, and in 1993, Mandela received a Nobel Peace Prize for dismantling apartheid in South Africa. In 1994, he was elected as the first black President of South Africa in the country’s first-ever democratic elections
