Blog Entry #9 Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela was a large part of how our world has been made to this day. He has been an inspiration worldwide or everyone. He wanted change in the world because he felt that the world was unfair to certain races. He believed in equality and dedicated his life to it. Nelson Mandela started to make peaceful protests in South Africa. He started to have people backing him up because they also wanted change. These peaceful protests started to become violent and since Nelson was the leader he was sentenced to jail for 27 years. Upon release he did become violent as he could've because of the amount of people that were with him. He decided to be a true man and keep with the peace. He later became the President of South Africa. Unfortunately the world had a large loss because Nelson Passed away in 2013.

In my opinion Nelson Mandela is one of the most important people to have lived on this earth. He has caused so much change for the better and no one knows what it would be like if he did not step up. What really stood out to me is that he spent so much time in jail which he didn't deserve but upon his release he did not seek for revenge, only change. it is a shame and the world continues to mourn the death of such a great person.
