Nelson Mandela and Apartheid

Apartheid was a Racial Segregation policy were non-whites were classified as Bantu(Black), Colored(mixed races), and Indians didn't share full rights of citizenship's with the whites. This system was during the year 1948 to 1994. It has only been around 13 yrs since it has been ceased to exist. The word Apartheid was developed in the late 1930s by the South Africans Bureau, which had called for policy "separate development of races." This system was first approved when the Afrikaner National Party came to power. Nelson Mandela was a hero because unlike other people that just did what the Apartheid told him to do, he was a fighter and a Warrior to free the horrible things that were happening in South Africa
