2. Reading about Mandela

SYMBOL OF FREEDOMNelson Mandela spent most of his life opposing the racist apartheid régime in South Africa. He was born with no rights because he was black, but at 71, he became President of the new South Africa.

Nelson Mandela was born in 1918. His father was a rural chief. At university, Mandela opposed the bad food and living conditions for black students - so the university asked him to leave.

Mandela became a lawyer and continued to oppose racial discrimination. He opposed violent action, but after police killed unarmed black protesters, he decided black people had to defend themselves. He became a leader of the African National Congress (ANC).

APARTHEID

In 1957, the Republic of South Africa introduced apartheid - a legal system of racial discrimination. Blacks and Whites were segregated. Blacks could not go to white schools, use white buses, marry white people or live in white areas. They could only have the

worst jobs. The ANC opposed apartheid, and Mandela and others organised acts of sabotage. In 1961, the government made the ANC illegal, so Mandela hid from the police.

Mandela was arrested in 1964 for trying to cause a revolution. He was condemned to life imprisonment. He was not sentenced to death because he had become a symbol in the fight for freedom. Twice the government offered Mandela his freedom if he left the country, but Mandela refused, so he spent 27 years in prison.

FREEDOMSouth Africa suffered many years of

violence. People all over the world protested against the white régime and refused to do business with South Africa. President F.W. de Klerk realised that apartheid could not continue. In 1990, he released Mandela. In 1991, apartheid was abolished.

In 1994, Nelson Mandela was elected President. He said : "In honouring those who fought to see this day arrive, we honour the best sons and daughters of all our people : Africans, Coloureds, Whites and Indians."

In 1999, he retired and younger man, Thabo Mbeki, became president. But Mandela is still the symbol of human dignity in the fight against discrimination.
