Nelson Mandela

“Courageous people do not fear forgiving”

Nel­son Man­dela (1918-2013) spent 27 years in pri­son because he did not agree with the abu­sive domi­na­tion of the whi­tes. Yet, he ended up beco­ming the first black pre­si­dent of South Africa and esta­blis­hed new laws so that blacks and whi­tes would have the same rights and obli­ga­ti­ons. When he was small, peo­ple called him Rolih­lahla, which means “he who shakes tree branc­hes”, a way of saying “trou­ble­maker”. Howe­ver, as an adult everyone recog­ni­sed him as brave and cou­ra­ge­ous, and an exam­ple for those who want jus­tice and fre­e­dom for all.
