South Africa. His father was a chief of the Xhosa-speaking Tembu
tribe. Mandela gave up his rights to succeed his father and instead
prepared for a legal career. He attended the University College of
Fort Hare, studied law by correspondence at Witwatersrand
University, and received a law degree from the University of South
Africa in 1942. That year in Soweto, he and a friend opened the first
black law partnership in South Africa.
Mandela joined the ANC in 1941 and helped from the
organization's Youth League. In 1948, the South Africa government
established it's policy of apartheid. The ANC called for equality for all
races and began leading open resistance to the government charged
Mandela with treason and other serious crimes, but, he was found
. . .
Graca Machel, the widow of President Somora Machel of
Mozambique, were married. Another favorite is the traditionally
prepared meat of freshly slaughtered sheep and the delicacy
Amarhewn (fermented corn-meal. )
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, I believe Nelson Mandela was a very influential
person and accomplished a lot, despite his set backs. He sought to obtain political power for the
country's blacks in a peaceful way. To recap,
Mandela had his table set by being next in line to a chief and learned
leadership skills from that but decided to go into law to exercise
these skills. In
1992, Mandela announced that he and his wife had agreed to
separate. Seeing that he
basically brought peace and ceased attacks, you'd have to have good
quality skills to do that. All in all,
Mandela's life in the past and now is a good representation of what a
good leader should be.
Some of Mandela's personal tastes are breakfast of plain
porridge, with fresh fruit and milk. He was
arrested in 1962, convicted of sabotage and conspiracy, and
sentenced to life in prison, growing antiapartheid forces in South
Africa argued that he should be freed. In 1999, he retired as President of South Africa . Lastly, through it all, his
leadership style was unique. Mandela lead the African National
Congress in a great way, and risked a lot just for his people.
