A beautiful narration of triumphant of the forces of good over forces of evil, an unwavering personal sacrifice for others over a lengthy period of time.

A beautiful dream of equality and prosperity for all that ended with the ignorant and the greedy ascending to positions of power to capture the moments for self enrichment. Such is the sad story of the Republic of South Africa 🇿🇦. A Republic plagued by rampant government corruption, high crime rates, high economic disinvestments, grey listings by international financial institutions, high unemployment rates, dysfunctional public service institutions; the one we see today is definitely NOT the South Africa that Nelson Mandela would be proud of. Nelson Mandela, the legend who was ultimately betrayed by his own comrades. SAD 😥😔!

I truly love how well you've described Mr. Nelson Mandela like the way that you did. He's one of another well poised and well educated Black Leaders of our time that had too come through so much animosity himself as peaceful as he was. It's soo very sad to see that when it comes to "Black America" the odds seem to be stacked against us in trying to find out who we REALLY are as a people and as a culture who've fought and struggled through much terrain. And have also triumphed over many obstacles that were in our own paths.

Mr Nelson Mandela was only a pawn in their sick game. Nelson Mandela rainbow nation plan would have worked because during Mandel's time in office , people started to trust one another ,the magic was there ,it showed during the 2010 soccer game ,how we could have been ,but from Mbeki and afterwards everything is based on revenge on people who had nothing to do with the law making of the country ,something that does puzzles me still today ,why dit the apartheid government became MEC's in Mandela's cabinet 🤔if they were suppose to be the law makers of apartheid ,it never made sense to me.

Contrary to common believe he spent 18 of the 27 years in the prison on Robben Island. The last 8 or so years he was in Polsmore on the mainland where it was more like being under house arrest. He had a cook and frequently had family, friends and political colleagues who visited him for lunch where they were served wine. He met regularly with government ministers at their private homes, and they came to visit him when he was treated at a hospital near Cape Town.

This is African black people land and its being taken away by white people and all he wants is fair treatment for his black people as his people are forced to live in slums. Even Joe Biden in 80's condemn and denounce George Schultz then foreign minister in senator hearing say South Africa is black people's land and equal rights need to be treated to all black people in education and jobs. Yes violence is violence but if its original your land for hundreds of years and your land bein robbed away I don't see how people cannot react with violence. The best example is Boer rising up against the British in Boer war because all the Boer farmers afraid their land will be taking away by the British.

While it is popular to hang all the dogs on Zuma but one cannot close ones eyes that a lot of issues plagueing South Africa had its beginnings in Nelson Mandela's rule. He was just too indecisive and unwilling to act in order not to stir things up. Those issues continued to grow during Mbeki's time and fully 'blossomed' with Zuma's rule.

[@Scar_7.62]

In my opinion , it was Mbeki that set the path of ruin . Mandela clearly showed how to make SA successful . He's wisdom to reconcile and include all the races was brilliant and common sense at the same time . Something Mbeki failed to grasp . Instead he chose to alienate the minorities , and opted for a pan African black agenda . This snubbing of many many good loyal SAns has in my opinion led us into this awful place .

I’ll stick to the hope and dream in my mind, Mandela is the greatest president South Africa ever had and probably will have. Most disappointing for me at age 65 is that we as South Africa had too little of his time as leader, could have been so much further down the road of racial recovery at the time he too needed a peaceful retirement. I’d swap the years of disaster Botha any day to have had Mandela lead the country. I regret Mandela not having done enough to eliminate Zuma from political power during the arms debacle. Just such a pity my home country has fallen into failure for actions of the party he loved, ANC needs to follow the Nats into ruin so that SA can start to rebuild.

[@helenokeeffe1823]

Your comments are very enlightening! From my perspective as a non-African (Irish living in France) few countries have been lucky enough to have a leader as spectacularly humane and inspiring as Mandela. I think he would be incredibly proud today of his country's actions in trying to hold Israel to account for the injustices committed against the Palestinians. Let's hope his truth and reconciliation model is put to good use once Netanyahu withdraws from Gaza and the Palestinians receive the statehood and civil rights they have long been denied. I was especially fascinated to learn that Mandela was not so keen on Mbeki but favoured Matamela Cyril Ramaphosa... evidently he was always thinking ahead while prioritising not just his own country's but the world's well-being. Such an inspiration.

It's interesting to hear an 'outsider' account of Nelson Mandela and South Africa's recent history for a change. Mandela is certainly one of very few political figures of this country I would have been keen to meet. While I admittedly despise the corrupt remains of the ANC that rules us now...as with most revolutions in history, violent or not, the remedy became the new disease. Being born in 1995 though, I sadly can only have a second hand perspective of the early stages of our democracy - I don't even recall having an established race consciousness or perception of the fractious foundations of our society until the end of primary school and into high school. Despite being descended directly from British colonial and Afrikaner Boer roots, racial prejudices didn't really feature in my youth; as my mother and her siblings were born and raised in Jamaica, where they grew up playing and going to school with children of colour, that likely accounts for that sense of equality and a less...tense attitude towards race (An attitude which can get one into trouble in this subjectively politically correct age). But I dearly hope that South Africa can, independent of the influence of the major powers of the world stage, pull itself out of the present stagnation and emerge as something uniquely beautiful in the painful history of the world.

I agree with many of tge comments relative to the authenticity, depth & breath of this documentary. I stumbled upon this site looking for 1:02:22 for information relative to Mandela's reception by the US, in the early 90s. I read the Long Walk To Freedom in late 1994 in preparing to move to RSA for my job. It was an excellent source in helping me to understand So Africa apartheid... and realizing it was "US Jun Crow, segregation,.."! The documentary was well researched with what I lived and researched. Exceptionally well done and I hope you will build on this documentary with a Part 2, 3, ... delving mire into the many back stories. And other South Africans who fault for freedom.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 and Thank you

They failed to explain that Mandela was actually mixed race. He had a COLOURED grandmother of Griqua lineage , that included Dutch .

Nelson Mandela was a great leader, undoubtedly, and a great peace maker but he was also not a saint by any means. He and his group, even his wife, were involved in multiple episodes of human torture, unjustified killings, and his political handling of post-apartheid South Africa could have been done better in terms of economics (SA remains the most economically unequal country on Earth), industry and especially the AIDS crisis. And it sadly looks like his successors in the ANC party are not about or willing to improve things in the country as racial and ethnic unity have been plummeting post-apartheid.

South Africa was always a shit hole ever since the settlement of Europeans. Don’t blame Mandala.

[@SupremeBros2012]

It is a bit far fetched to heap all the issues South Africa is facing now on Mandela , South Africa’s problems are prehistoric and there are domino effects which also culminates in horrible leadership today Mandela was not involved in human torture unless you can point to any torture that he sanctioned I guess the moral of the story is , do not subjugate an entire population, take away their means of advancement and expect a country to remain stable Scars run deep

Good pronunciation of African names. But not so good with Afrikaans names. Malan has emphasis on second syllable. I was in high school when the Rivonia trial took place. The ANC was bombing police stations and railway stations. Mandela and his gang of ten were found to be in possession of at least hundreds of automatic rifles and tons of ammunition and military class of explosives and detonators. They used to blow down high voltage power lines. I remember that clearly. He was trained in eastern Europe which was firmly communist at that time. He admitted to most of the terrorism charges laid against him. He and his "comrades" as they called themselves. They narrowly missed the gallows. The senior Judge gave them life imprisonment instead. There used to be a book on KZbin written by one of the Rivonia trial judges, which lasted about 8 months. But it seems to have disappeared. It detailed how the Security Police tracked the Mandela gang down and caught them red handed at their hideout on a luxury farm at Rivonia, a suburb of Johannesburg. He deserved to go for Life imprisonment. People of all races died in their terrorist attacks. Erich age 75, now living in New Zealand.

It's so weird that SA had segregation through to the 1990s and are still reeling from being decades behind other countries who were already slow with ending segregation in the 1960s. SA seems to need more opportunities in general and less corruption, in that way when there's plenty then there's plenty for many vs the cut throat everyone out for themselves hard times that's happening currently. The slums are no way to live regardless of race or creed, yet so many ppl in the comments here still are butt hurt and bent over racism or rather haven't yet come to terms with it being the problem, regardless of which way it goes hatred is a cancer that destroys everything if allowed to fester and racism is a cancer that destroys and distorts your minds. I really worry about the future of SA, pls no race wars - our troops are still messed up from 9/11 wars. Sincerely, 🇨🇦

I don’t believe in colonization in modern times, however the times were much different in the past. I also don’t believe in placing our modern thoughts with an expectation of people understanding the same way historically. It’s sad that we haven’t truly accepted humans with different perspectives and experiences as equals. All races and religions separate themselves and group together in like thinking groups. My travels in many cultures and countries as well as religions gave me so many opportunities to learn about different cultures. Most people I’ve met have been amazing yet government and religious leaders seem to always be the problem. Yet here we are in 2023 still killing humans and destroying nations and humanity. We the people must stand out against tyranny rule and fight to be free regardless of color or religion. No one should be hungry or cold but we just won’t fix it. Individualism has to be absolutely protected for humanity to thrive in the future.
