This is a video of Nelson Mandela's first televised interview. Mandela was a huge figure in non-violent acts of protest against the apartheid in South Africa. He was later put in jail for 27 years until the apartheid was ended and he was elected the first black president of South Africa. This video is about how one hero can not do it alone, part of their fight is to spread their message, as Mandela did in this interview. I chose this because it gives insight into the first of Mandela's actions, when studying heroes it is important to know their start. From this artifact I learned that heroes continue their cause even after they are in hiding or under arrest, as Mandela did. It shows how their message will continue to prosper under the understanding of everyone that will listen.
