The Journey Of Nelson Mandela

During his fight, Mandela fled to Tanzania, which housed the headquarters of the ANC. Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years for defying the racist apartheid government, that led South Africa for decades. He emerged from prison in 1990 and became South Africa's first black president four years later, all the while promoting forgiveness. The end of an exceptional journey for the prisoner, who turned to pres,ident,and who transformed the nation. Mandela was laid to rest in his childhood village of Qunu. Nelson Mandela was our leader and our hero!  With military troop and traditional rituals, South Africa buried Nelson Mandela.
