WHAT DOES MANDELA MEAN IN PORTUGUESE?

Nelson Mandela

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela was a lawyer, rebel leader and president of South Africa from 1994 to 1999, considered to be the most important Black Africa leader, winner of the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize, and father of the modern South African nation, where he is usually referred to as Madiba or Tata. Born into a tribal nobility family in a small inland village where he was likely to occupy a leadership position, he turned down this fate at the age of twenty-three by moving to the capital, Johannesburg, and starting his political career. Moving from the rural countryside to a rebellious life in college, he became a young lawyer in the capital and leader of the nonviolent resistance of youth, ending up as a defendant in an infamous trial for treason. Outlaw, he became the world's most famous prisoner and finally the most awarded politician in life, responsible for refounding his country as a multiethnic society. Mandela spent 27 years in prison - initially on Robben Island and later on in the prisons of Pollsmoor and Victor Verster. After an international campaign, he was released in 1990, when civil war intensified in his country.
