 For hundreds of years, Africa with its treasure trove of natural resources was an enormous colonial reservation for European powers. In the aftermath of painful 20th-century independence struggles on the continent, South Africa with its racist government remained the last vestige of white minority rule. Nelson Mandela, a political prisoner for decades and the voice of the anti-apartheid movement, emerged from captivity to speak solemnly and eloquently about the liberation struggle. Students will discover that the moral authority Mandela commanded helped abolish apartheid and enabled him to become the first black president of South Africa. Part of the multivolume Greatest Speeches of the 20th Century: Voices in Time Series. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online. |
