The Mandela Exhibition explains how this leader has been central to every stage of South Africa’s epic struggle against apartheid; from formulating a new approach in the 1940s to leading the mass struggles of the 1950s, and from the formation of the Umkhonto we Siswe (Spear of the Nation) in the early 1960s to his 27 years of incarceration. Nelson Mandela initiated and led negotiations in the 1990s, and served as the first president of a democratic South Africa. He built a new nation from the fragments of conflict.
This exhibition is organized in six themes, which show the different aspects of the life of this leader: character, comrade, leader, prisoner, negotiator and statesman.
PDF documents for each theme ( 2 to 3 MB each) are available for download from www.apartheidmuseum.org
