Self-Guided Visit
Self-Guided Visit GRADES 9-12 Mandela: Struggle for Freedom was developed by the Canadian Museum for Human Rights (Winnipeg, Canada) in partnership with the Apartheid Museum (Johannesburg, South Africa). Tour management services provided by Lord Cultural Resources. The original presentation of Mandela at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights (CMHR) was generously supported by The Asper Foundation, TD Bank Group, Travel Manitoba, and Air Canada. These events have been financially assisted by the Ontario Cultural Attractions Fund, a program of the Government of Ontario through the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport, administered by the Ontario Cultural Attractions Fund Corporation. TO Live acknowledges CMHR and their development team who created the educational resources. TO Live and CMHR give special thanks to Dolana Mogadime, Ph.D., CMHR Visiting Scholar, Associate Professor of Education and Joint Ph.D. Graduate Program Director at Brock University, as well as Honorary Professor, University of the Free State, South Africa, for her contributions to the development of the exhibition’s educational materials. CMHR acknowledges that the Brock University Human Rights Task Force Report, 2017 inspired their approach to this work. TO Live acknowledges that our venues are on the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. The City also acknowledges that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 signed with the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaties signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands. In the words of Nelson Mandela, “we greet you all in the name of peace, democracy and freedom for all.” This exhibition is designed as five zones that explore South Africa’s history from 1948 to the present: Apartheid, Defiance, Repression, Mobilization and Freedom.
