Introduction 

Long Walk to Freedom is the autobiography of former South African President Nelson Mandela, one of the most profoundly influential people of the 20th century. Published in 1994, Long Walk to Freedom tracks Mandela’s life from his early years through to the experiences of spending 27 years in prison on Robben Island under the apartheid government. The last chapters of the book cover Mandela’s political ascension after being released from prison and how, despite him tackling the country’s segregated society, the symptoms of apartheid South Africa remained. More recently, Long Walk to Freedom has been adapted into a film, with Idris Elba playing Nelson Mandela. 

About Nelson Mandela
Nelson Mandela was a South African anti-apartheid activist and political leader. After spending 27 years in prison for encouraging anti-apartheid views, Mandela became South African president. He became the country’s first black head of state and won the Nobel Peace Prize for his push for an anti-apartheid South Africa. Widely recognized as one of the most influential people of the 20th century and an icon of democracy and social justice, Mandela has received over 250 honors. He is deeply respected in South Africa today, and described as the “Father of the Nation”.

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.” - Nelson Mandela
