Nelson Mandela and Apartheid

Africans were suffering the wrath of apartheid. Apartheid is the seperation between blacks and whites. Like pulling them apart. Blacks would work trying to fix a roof or folding clothes and get little cash, while whites do the same thing but because of the color of there skin, they get paid alot. Africans had enough. Thus, made the African National Congress and the United Democratic Front. There Mission was to opposed Apartheid and give all africans free rights. But the whites ressponded by killing one of there leaders, Steve Biko.
Yet the ANC and the UDF didnt quit. they comtinued there protest even with help from other African groups and Indian groups. Some Leaders were Captured imprisioned, and Exiled. One of them was Nelson Mandela. Nelson Mandela was sent to prison for life. Protest went all around til finally in 1990, Nelson Mendela after 27 years was set free. 5 years later, he was awarded the nobel peace Prize. He also became the President of South Africa. These events is what helped defeat the evils of Apartheid
