Lesson: Nelson Mandela and Apartheid

Well from my understanding Apartheid is a very important policy of Racial segregation which was practiced in the Republic of South Africa which involved Political, Legal, And Economic discrimination against Black People, in other words it was the Segregation of Black and White people. Nelson Mandela was the chief cause of a great movement which stopped Apartheid he was a man who believed in non- violence like most great historians. Sadly however he was incarcerated for 27 years, but that did not stop him and in 1994 he was elected president over Africa. He was probably liked because he was a man of peace and for his progress in Africa he won the Noble Peace Prize.
