Publisher Description: One Man's Lifelong Quest to Bring Justice and Equality to a Nation at Great Personal Cost and Sacrifice
Equality can be so difficult to achieve. In the apartheid era of South Africa, one man became aware of racial segregation at an early age. He began his journey to achieve the rule of democracy and justice for black people. He spent 27 years in prison but did not comprise his vision of a free and just South Africa. In the end, he won and became the president of his country. This is the story of Nelson Mandela. The son of a tribal chief, he had an elite upbringing and attended the best schools as a child. A desire to avoid an arranged marriage made him flee to Johannesburg where he experienced laws that oppressed the black people. He came up against insurmountable odds in defiance of these laws and the authorities that made them. He was repeatedly side-lined and persecuted but refused to give up. When he won, he ran a just country that stood for equality for all of its citizens. In 1993, he won the Nobel Peace Prize. Learn about the man, and what it really took for him to realize his dream. Here's a preview of what you'll discover in this book:

He spent the better part of his life in prison, but that did not break him. Nor did he accept the offers of freedom by the authorities should he compromise. He refused. He finally achieved victory. This book will take you into what shaped the man, why the idea of equality meant so much to him, and how he attained it. So, scroll up and click the "Buy now with 1-click" and get your copy |
