Nelson Mandela
In class we are learning about Nelson Mandela.
Nelson Mandela is a man from South Africa, and he was the reason that we
have race relations day today. He fought against apartheid and segregation,
in his lifetime ( 18 July 1918, to 5 December 2013) he also won the Nobel
Peace Prize. He also was against white supremacy.
have race relations day today. He fought against apartheid and segregation,
in his lifetime ( 18 July 1918, to 5 December 2013) he also won the Nobel
Peace Prize. He also was against white supremacy.
Firstly, Nelson Mandela fought against apartheid and segregation. Apartheid
is when only white people in South Africa are superior and they have good
things, when the blacks are treated unfairly. Segregation means where one
group of people like the whites are separated from black people and are treated
differently. I think apartheid and segregation is wrong because everyone
should be treated equally.

Secondly, Nelson Mandela was against white supremacy. In South Africa
he did not think that it was fair that only the white people got all the good
things in life. Only the white people got big houses, electricity and proper
roads. Nelson Mandela also thought that the black people should not have
to live in tiny hovels and should be allowed proper roads or electricity.
He did not think it was fair that because of their skin colour, that the black
and the white people got different rights. We agree with Nelson Mandela
because we don’t think it is fair either.

Finally, Nelson Mandela won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993. He shared the
Nobel Peace Prize with Frederik Willem De Klerk. De Klerk was the president
of South Africa. They won the Peace Prize because of their work fighting
against apartheid and segregation. We think that they deserved the Nobel
Peace Prize because what they were doing was right.

In conclusion, Nelson Mandela is recognised today because he
fought against apartheid and segregation, he was against white supremacy,
and he won the Nobel peace prize. Nelson Mandela was very important for
the way he fought for equal rights and helped support black people to have
a better life. It affects us today because everyone no matter what their skin
colour is, they are entitled to have equal rights.
