Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom History through Film

Historical Themes Impact of Imperialism Apartheid Civil Disobedience Militant Protest South African Culture Portrayal of Great World Leader

Civil Disobedience Henry David Thoreau and Susan B. Anthony both practiced this Intentionally breaking unjust laws to prove a point MUST BE NON-VIOLENT and MUST BE WILLING TO ACCEPT THE CONSEQUENCES

You may well ask: "Why direct action? Why sit ins, marches and so forth? Isn't negotiation a better path?" You are quite right in calling for negotiation. Indeed, this is the very purpose of direct action. Nonviolent direct action seeks to create such a crisis and foster such a tension that a community which has constantly refused to negotiate is forced to confront the issue. It seeks so to dramatize the issue that it can no longer be ignored.”

Apartheid Legal segregation enforced by the National Party in South Africa between 1948 and 1994 Blacks deprived of citizenship Government segregated education, medical care, and provided black people with inferior services

How was this enforced? Prohibition of Mixed Marriage Act of 1949 Immorality Act of 1950 Population Registration Act of 1950: Whites, Blacks, Indians, Asians all had I.D. Cards 1950 Group Areas Act

Nelson Mandela Member of African National Congress-Against Apartheid Engaged in non-violent protest and later more radical Imprisoned from 1964-1990 Became first black President in South Africa 1994 with the end of Apartheid in this nation
