27 years of being locked up will drive a person insane. It's amazing that he kept his resolve.
... resolve and sanity.
He could have been released 27 years earlier if he renounced violence. But he didn't. And he had an easy life in prison unlike IRA freedom fighters.
@@irishboer7124 IVE NEVER, experienced ANYTHING GOOD about being incarcerated, in the long/short times when I was. BUT, I'm not SOUTH AFRICAN, but FORTUNATELY IM a AFRICAN/AMERICAN, who was WELL INFORMED about the APARTIED that INFLICTED HARSH PENALTIES on REAL SOUTH AFRICANS, Indicative of AMERICAN JIM CROW policies...(in the latter half of the 20th century at that). MANDELA was also a NATURAL BOXER, which probably HAD ALOT to do with his CHARACTER on a whole. It's very difficult to be NON -VIOLENT, when an opposing RACIST regime is pretty much throwing the first PUNCH just because THEY FELT LIKE IT.

He was a man of great resolve, but that's only part of why he survived prison and lead SA to a greater future. By his own admission, the level of restraint, and seemingly low level of bitterness he exhibited was something he was forced to learn while imprisoned. He, imo quite intelligently, realized that some degree of restraint was necessary in order for his resolve and determination to mean anything.
Mandela truly is an inspiration to all who loathe oppression and desire freedom and justice. He was truly a Great.
Today marks exactly 9 years since his passing. Feels like yesterday. Man I loved this man so so much I remember when I was very young I would take his pictures from the drum magazine and keep them in my flip file. He is one of the biggest inspirations in my life. Definitely the best of a very few people who walked this earth. What a man. I love and miss you so much. You'll forever be in our hearts. I will do my utmost best to have a golden heart like yours. Rest in perfect peace and power. Tata Madiba.🕊♥️✨

He was none of these things. He murdered innocent people to get power and his tribe the Xhosa were not indigenous to SA his ANC have violently murdered over 250000 people since they took power as young as 6 months wrapped in news paper solvent poured over them and set on fire alive. He was never poor violence was his game anyone who did not agree were necklaced tyres put over them and set on fire Whiney started that. Food stores bombed, churches bombed, schools burned, buses and trains bombed and they told the people AIDS was not a disease and turned down the drugs that could save them, wasn’t until his son died from it that they admitted it was a disease. Children were being raped and murdered because the people were told it was a cure for AIDS once it was recognised as a disease and he did nothing to educate his people that this was nonsense. I was there and had 3 family murdered and know of others so forgive me He was no hero. He was a terrorist.
I never get tired of listenning to Mr. Mandela. 30 years could've boken him but he was bigger than those that emprisonned him. He maintained his self worth, his morals and values through thick and thin. He kept his humility as a political prisonner as well as the president of South Africa. He did his part in life as a beautiful soul . How is each one of us doing with our lives so far?
Well said and beautifully written thank you for saying this👏👏👏
He sold out his people to the western powers, and he did nothing to procure justice after years of apartheid.
@@capoislamort100 your like a stupid and ignorant person who doesn't know the facts ...and circumstances that led to the South African 🇿🇦 negotiated settlement... please do your research and gather your fact before you spew such ignorance in this platform..
Very intelligent man.🧔
Très bonne question
RIP Mandela, from Prisoner to President,your contributions,struggles and memory will live on. You have fought the good fight.
Amen. I pray he will hear the Words: Well done my good and faithful servant
RIP

Mr. Nelson Mendela's speech always inspires me. I personally have accepted some of the principles.
I am sad that there is still so much violence and hatred in South Africa. But despite all that I still love my country, and I still have hope for a better future
I believe south Africa will be great again even if it takes a long time

To the staff at Timeline World history, thank you Nelson Mandela led South Africa 🇿🇦 through a turbulent time.
That speaker talks as if all problems in South Africa were Mandela's to change. No country can be changed within a short time by only one man. It takes time and work and as we see today Mandela made a huge change in his country. But there are still problems and it will need more time and great man like Mandela to bring more change.
1990 to 2021. 30 years has gone by, can we say anything has changed in who holds the power of this nation?
Who owns the mines of the gold, diamond and other precious metals in South Africa?
@@donward2674 Actually, a lot has changed. More and more it's the African people who own the mines, due to the SA governments Mining Charters.
"The previous 2002 Mining Charter stipulated that 26% of mine ownership in South Africa must be held by black people, which was achieved by 2014 with coal mining now seeing the largest percentage of black ownership at 47.2%, whereas diamond mining is lowest at the minimum 26%." Mining Technology 21 Aug 2017 (Last Updated March 6th, 2018 14.03)
The 2017 Charter had higher mandated minimums. Important to note, however, that just because 30% is 'black' owned, doesn't mean the other 70% is 'white' owned. The mining industry is global, and the hungriest nation in the world for resources is China.
Changed in a bad way its a mess whites are suffering
Can you change

Nelson Mandela will live in our hearts and minds for eternity. What a wonderful soul he was🙏🏾🙏🏾
I commend mama Winnie for her courage and strength. The media tried by all means necessary to break her but failed.
Powerful Man, You are the strength of South Africa and Africa. Rest in peace Nelson Mandela, your Legacy will live with us for ever.
I don't think communists will rest in peace.
White peoples were supposed to goback to UK so he was not good man
Strength of South Africa not Africa

@@tshepotau5754 OK.
This is a.great documentary first and foremost and secondly Wannie Mandela is one of those rare gems bro... Every great man has one of those type of women that helped elevate him
In spite of Mr Mandela smile the hurt and pain is still in his eyes.
Lurline Thompsom, I see wisdom, determination and triumph in his eyes not pain. I see the a resolve, “never again”.
How u know that
Facts
Somewhere right now in SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦 you’d more than likely find a lil kid with a similar smile markings his misgivings about conditions and the aftermath of the atrocities
The pain cannot leave, which makes me respect him even more. He went against natural instincts i.e sacrifice love. Love people who hate u. Most people undermine this part of him because they only want to see a hero
Thank you sooooo much Timeline.
An honour.
Thank you again
Pamela
Thank you 🙏 again TimeLine.
As a former member of the ANC and an anti apattheid activist, I am ashamed of the ANC government.
They’re corrupt. They’re all Mandela’s buddies. People are blind outside of SA. they just soup up this regurgitated fantasy that totes Mandela as a saint. It’s just wrong and their is ample evidence and numbers and people to prove it without a doubt. ANC is a complete failure.

Mr. Tutu is so correct. We miss you, hero.
Truth about it is he kept real to his truths even after his life was stolen from him.
wow! thx for posting
Thank you very Much Nelson Mandela Because you also said that Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
Mandela was a fantastic man and leader. He saved South Africa from a civil war!
He was an amazing man! I wish he were younger when became president of SA he did not have enough time to do what he wanted!
But if you look at the ANC today they have done nothing of witch they promised.
I hope one day that SA is going to become as it should be!
I love South Africa and I am proud to be a South African!
He did not saved it from CW he just postponed it ...
What exactly did Mandela do for South Africa, please inform the world?
Civil war is raging in South Africa right now.
Respect man
Getting rid of corruption would be a good start.
I'm happy he kept going he didn't give up❤
Making me cry, my fiance died during this time.
chokinonashes61 am really sorry my love
So very sorry dear 😢😭
Sorry to learn of your personal loss. "Mungu ailaze roho yake mahali pema peponi, Amina." Kiswahili language meaning, may God rest his soul in eternal peace.
Though you left this world but I Kim can never stop remembering your name.May you rest in peace Ps. Mandala
Mandela said that courage is not an absent of fear but the triumph over it. He applied the same thing in his freedom struggle of his own land. I studied this installation of first African democratic government in my tenth standard.
It was my first time coming to South Africa The Nelson Mandela's homeland October 2011 and who I vision? Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu. I love South African People Oh Yes and two little children sang a South African Anthem to me and my drummer and we love it and we gave them some English money and they were so happy that we have to tell them please bring it home before somebody will steal it from them. Rest In Peace Nelson xx
When he said " your children will go to school for free", I shed a tear for the Fees Must victims🇿🇦
I don't think he meant tertiary education. Even the first world richest countries when it comes to university education citizens have to pay. But there's other funding methods to help those that come from poor backgrounds
@@Stirlingshirecastle Well in Germany Schooling if free up to University and parents get children grants untill children finish their studies. By the way the children grants in Germany are for all parents doctors and lawyers too, not just the poor yet they don't pay for education. That is probably why their children can take gap year after university and travel the world, because if parents are well paid they save their grants for them.
@@nomxhosapekani7966 even here in Scotland is free but you've to pay it back when you start working with the exception of nursing. They won't deny you to go to university because you don't have money. They'll pay everything for you including your monthly income support but you have to pay a certain amount back. In 🇩🇪 is it totally free whereby even if you're working they don't expect you to pay anything?
@@Stirlingshirecastle Thanks for echoing my comment. I live in Germany, hence I spoke about the system.
Mandela was one of the greatest leader in our time. The world can learn a lot from this human being.
'great' in terms of what?
@@lindokuhlehlatshwayo9215 Great in terms of leadership. He showed South Africa a direction that could hold the country together during the transition. That was true leadership. There were tensions in South Africa. Tension between blacks and whites. Tensions between blacks and blacks. It takes leadership to achieve a common ground in the midst of such tensions.
@@georgeodhiambo598Mandela considered all people as equal hence called SA, "THE RAINBOW NATION"as Mr Mandela knew that it wasnt just blacks that was part of the struggle but people of all colours but immediately after this GREAT MAN, the wolves started to move in and breaking that RAINBOW NATION DREAM to pieces overnight by only considering blacks as the only ones who deserve to be not just in SA but on the AFRICAN CONTINENT.Today they follow a dream about AFRICA WITHOUT BORDERS, but failes to brings stability in our own sovereign R.S.A, whereas MR MANDELA got this country almost overnight together as one and to top it all up,with his apartheid enemy OF THE PAST.SO IN MY VIEW MR MANDELA WAS A MAN NOT TO RELIVED THE PAST BUT TO MAKE OUR COUNTRY STRONG FOR TODAY AND A BETTER FUTURE.REST IN PEACE MR MADIBA🙏🏻
Brought tears to my heart
Anyone know what they're singing during the intro?
Remarkable Man. Will never see anyone like him again.
Few people would dedicate the life for the sake of a cause. Such a brave man, even sacrificing the own life, and more the family members. I admire also the resilience of not only Mandela, but his family. Nobody will ever understand what that meant, but them. He was a man with such a personality that inspired many and, I hope will still inspire the real good leaders of the new millennium.
how do you know
It needs courage to do what he did...and I regognize there are many more of such curageous people on this planet
It is our people's songs that touch my soul
Such a honorable human being the respect Mr Mandela exhumes he has the respect of the world and through all the world I don't think many a man President of any other country has been so honored like Mr Mandela
and now ANC is destroying all of SA, so much for Madellla's dream
comment made 1 year ago. and it only got worse

What do u mean 😕

Anyone who has had the privilege of shaking hands with Nelson Mandela would attest that the experience is so profound that they'd wish to preserve that moment indefinitely as if the touch of his hand left an everlasting imprint on their soul. My hero
hello guys good afternoon everyone keepsafe GOD bless Us Mandela I respect that IAM salute sir
"Why were we stupid for so long?" 🤧
Every human beings are beautiful and precious.
I keep looking for very specific details on what Mandela accomplished exactly while President ? Where should I look ?
Google probably.
Here’s a list:
1. Made a inspiring speech.
2. Made some more inspiring speeches.
3. ANC took over, white culture and land attacked. Some have been there longer than any American has in America. 🥱
Open your stupid eyes
thanks Fazir
Your life has been a light to the world
One of my favourite Heroes ❤
Mandela changed world politics a true HERO
From boxing to president of a country this guy is good.
For me this was the beginning of a dream. It will remain my dream, a South Africa for all. My African Dream. Coincidentally I was born the year he wad sentenced to life for a dream and vision he believed in.
I think Mandela was a great man GOD SENT to SA RIP my brother
所以曼德拉把南非从天堂带入了地狱？南非现在还有什么？想想30年前有什么？不要被西方人伪善的嘴脸骗了。
Wow Tata was so passionate about uMbutho amaqabane awuhlaba awuhlikiza umbutho...it is sad..
Its wrong to test somebody as a leader. You can counteract them if they violate. You can suspend them, vote them out as such if they are incompetent. Its pure judging, racism/ bigotry when this is done. The necessary qualifications and experience if any should be sufficient.
So. How’s South Africa doing now? 🧐
It just amazes me how so many people can blindly follow someone and view them as this great hero. It’s almost as bad as Stalin, Mao and Castro followers. It’s just captivating to see people with such strong opinions about Mandela being good and yet have never been to South Africa or know the actual people and the actual numbers. The actual situation on the ground. when you do this you find out how bad corruption has got their. ANC is a complete failure.
Finally a comment of truth. They dont mention that he was locked up for being a terrorist or the fact that he ordered the killings of many white south african women and children not do they mention he refused to renouce violence which would have had him freed years ago. They also dont mention Shellhouse Massacre. wonder if these idiots will even google the atrocities.....#communismSucks
I am a South African. I don’t think that Nelson Mandela was a failure, I think that the ANC is. I think that Mandela’s legacy should primarily be judged by his pre Apartheid years.
Beautiful opening song
Mandela was like angel I love you Mandela and you are a forgettable you will always be in our hearts you opened door's
in my opinion, Nelson Mandela was one of the world's greatest leaders and he was one of those people who, no matter how much suffering he went through, he never went against his ideals of equality for all. He is sorely missed. I sympathize with the Anti-Apartheid Movement and I am infuriated that Apartheid was even introduced. It is, in the words of Alan Paton, "in essence, a rejection of man".
South Africa is still suffering under the boot of racist tyrants.
Hes the greatest
@@andyc9902 The greatest hypocrite.
Wish he was little meaner....
And woman?
I get gooose bumps every time i hear him talking and seeing his people winning against th white oppression, even though I'm not an Afrikaan, I give all my respect to him and to his people, rest in peace Madiba.

Great talk from Mandela visioned leader
Africa we have great men but we never see unless they live us before we know how great they are talking about Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Pres.Nelson Mandela and and Dr. PLO Lumuba, but still have Lumuba with us let appreciate him listen to his speech and Africa will be great.
Just Wonderful That He Turned South Africa Around To Showing All Beauty. 😃
Only for the ANC to betray all the work he has done and divide us even more
played football when he was there against the prison team..mandela and his buddys were not allowed to watch the football game. the pitch/ field was surrounded by a sodin high fence..lol

This is painful my heart is bleeding
My little brother was born the day Nelson Mandela was released from prison. 11th of February 1990. It is somewhat of an honor for my brother. Also just like Mandela my brother spent many years in prison. But indeed for different less honorable reasons. He is free after 10 years in prison. He can’t imagine 27 years in prison while being innocent.
He wasn't innocent. He was a mass murderer
@@jeffslote9671 and
No he wasn't that's a lie, Mandela did get involved in sabotage but he never killed anyone and was no murderer, besides if your people were suffering human rights abuses and oppression, you might have joined the armed struggle against the regime which was indeed very brutal.
morgan freeman is such a good actor omgggg
The high hopes people had about the new South Africa, it's so sad that the opposite turned out to be the case. The people's hopes were shattered, matters worse his successors plummeted the South African economy even further through corruption. It's so unfortunate, the many years of struggle went to waste, people lost their lives so that a few blacks and their friends can lead a life of opulence
Indeed you will be remembered forever
It sure was ‘ A Long Road to Freedom ‘. RIP Nelson Mandela 🙏
Waafrika tuko pamoja milele daima!
Good man
To be an effective leader one must make great sacrifices
In 2022 Is there FULL equality in South Africa 🇿🇦
Of course significant gains largely based upon his extraordinary tireless efforts and as many have noted, sacrifices along with many others OFTEN OVERLOOKED
The tragedy of SA since 1994 is the fact that the West demanded the new ANC government accept the huge Apartheid foreign debt to end foreign economic sanctions. Under international law they really did not have to since it was what is called odious debt, that is: debt acquired by an undemocratic regime for purposes not to the benefit of the people and that the lenders knew it. SA should have repudiated it, and made individual barter trade arrangements with its abundant natural resources with many states in the third world and avoid the international banking system.
