Anti-apartheid revolutionary, politician and You cannot experience philanthropist; he was Madiba, son of this area, who was born and spent his formative years in the Eastern Cape. Africa’s Heartbeat Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela was born in Qunu, a small village near Mthata (Umtata) without taking a part of her with you in the former Transkei, (Eastern Cape) on 18 July 1918. He helped to establish the ANC Youth League and was imprisoned for 27 years on Robben Island, in Polsmoor Prison, for his ideals of a free and non-racial democratic South Africa. In 1991, he was elected as President of the African National Congress after he was released, and the ANC was unbanned. He, and the-then South African President, F. W. de Klerk, jointly received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993, recognizing their combined efforts towards reconciliation and peace in this country. On 10 May 1994, he became the first dem- ocratically-elected South African President, after a landslide victory in the April 1994 elections, and served until 1999. He retired from public life in June 1999 where he resided in Houghton, Johannes- burg with his wife, Graça Machel. They exchanged vows on his 80th birthday in 1998. In 2000, Dr. Mandela graciously consented that this Metropolitan Municipality be named after him. This international icon of peace and reconciliation personified the “spirit of freedom”. In 2009, Mandela’s birthday (18 July) was declared Mandela Day, an international day to promote global peace and celebrate the South African leader’s legacy.

  • Cradock Four
    Saif Pardawala 12/7/2012 TRC Cradock Four Amnesty Hearings Abstract: The Amnesty Hearing of the Truth and Reconciliation show the connection between the South African Apartheid state and the mysterious disappearances of four Cradock political activists. The testimonies of members of the security police highlight the lengths the apartheid state was willing to go to suppress opposition. The fall of Apartheid and the numerous examples of state mandated human rights abuses against its opponents raised a number of critical questions for South Africans at the time. Among the many issues to be addressed, was the need to create an institution for the restoration of the justice that had been denied to the many victims of apartheid’s crimes. Much like the numerous truth commissions established in Eastern Europe and Latin America after the formation of democracy in those regions, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission was founded with the aims of establishing a restorative, rather than punitive justice. The goal of the TRC was not to prosecute and impose punishment on the perpetrators of the state’s suppression of its opposition, but rather to bring closure to the many victims and their families in the form of full disclosure of the truth. The amnesty hearings undertaken by the TRC represent these aims, by offering full amnesty to those who came forward and confessed their crimes. In the case of Johan van Zyl, Eric Taylor, Gerhardus Lotz, Nicholas van Rensburg, Harold Snyman and Hermanus du Plessis; the amnesty hearings offer more than just a testimony of their crimes. The amnesty hearings of the murderers of a group of anti-apartheid activists known as the Cradock Four show the extent of violence the apartheid state was willing to use on its own citizens to quiet any opposition and maintain its authority.

  • Nelson Mandela
    Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela was a very important person in the South African anti-apartheid movement having spent twenty-seven years in prison for fighting against the government. He was also the first black South African President from 1994–1999. Apartheid (say: a-part-hite) was the separation of black and white people in South Africa. Early Life Nelson Mandela was named Rolihlahla Mandela when he was born in Mvezo (say: m-vay-zo), South Africa on 18th July 1918. He was given the name Nelson by his teacher at school. He did well at school and went to the University of Fort Hare. However, he was expelled because he joined a student protest. When he returned home, his family told him he they would arrange a marriage for him if he did not return to Fort Hare to finish his degree. Mandela ran away to the city of Johannesburg (say: Joe-han-ez-burg) where he managed to finish his degree through the University of South Africa and eventually became a lawyer. Politics and Prison From 1942, he was becoming more and more involved with politics and by 1944, he helped create the youth section of the African National Congress (ANC), a political party in South Africa. Later, in 1952, he was chosen as the National Volunteer-in-Chief of the Defiance Campaign which was a movement to fight against apartheid. The following years were full of fighting and arrests because of trying to stop apartheid. In 1962, he was arrested again and given a life sentence in 1964.

Nelson Mandela: The Official Exhibition Learning Resources HOW DID NELSON MANDELA, SOUTH AFRICA AND THE WIDER WORLD OPPOSE APARTHEID? How did Nelson Mandela, South Africa and the wider world oppose apartheid? Nelson Mandela was a leading figure in the Freedom Struggle – the fight against apartheid. His actions eventually led him to be imprisoned for 27 years. Mandela and his fellow prisoners continued to be subjected to apartheid’s oppressive regime while in prison, where the rules were even harsher for Black African prisoners than for White prisoners. Students can use their visit to Nelson Mandela: The Official Exhibition to collect examples of how Nelson Mandela and others resisted apartheid and fought for the human rights of Black South Africans in society and in prison. © Cloete Breytenbach / Daily Express / AP Images They can use the grid over the page to record their findings. Back at school they can use the London landmarks resource and their own research to find further examples of how London became the epicentre of the global campaign to ‘Free Nelson Mandela’ and end apartheid. 1 Nelson Mandela: The Official Exhibition Learning Resources HOW DID NELSON MANDELA, SOUTH AFRICA AND THE WIDER WORLD OPPOSE APARTHEID?
