The man was a freedom fighter, he fought to end apartheid. The way black people were treated in SA was shocking and thats why he fought to get things changed.

In 1962 he was arrested, convicted of conspiracy to overthrow the government.

After his release he eventually became SAs FIRST black president. He spent his whole life trying to get the country to allow equal voting for black and white people.

That to me is a man who tried for years to change things and ultimatly acheived it.
