WHAT DO U KNOW ABOUT SOUTH AFRICA AND MANDELA?

[Zehra]

'Only the truth can put the past to rest.'-South African President Nelson Mandela.

I was deeply affected by history of South Africa.Not so many years before ,just for 96 years South Africa has been a self-ruling country!Even after it became a self ruling country in 1910,white people remained firmly in control.

Between 1948 and 1994 the nation was ruled under a system known as apartheid (keeping blacks and whites apart)seperate rights,seperate neighbourhoods...
No black person had the right to vote or take part in the government.In a nation of 32 million black people and 6 million whites,no black person had a voice!!!

South Africa held its first open election in 1994(before 12 years!)
Nelson Mandela...
Nelson Mandela ,the first black president of the country had spent 27 years in prison for fighting for black equality.


I would like to have friends from South Africa.No matter black or white...
