I have nothing against Mandela and I think he's a personality to reckon with but at times I'm at odds when little is shared about Steve Biko! One of the many unsung heroes of Africa! As always, much respect to your content!
When I was in Zambia back in 1988,1989 and 1990 I heard news about the aparthied in South Africa everyday. Everyday I heard the true story from Radio Zambia while the news outlets in South Africa made up their report of it by deflating the number of deaths. Radio Zambia always told the truth reporting about it and I loved it!
Number of deaths? You are ignorant of the truth. The largest number of deaths during apartheid was during the infiting of the ANC and the IFP in the struggle to become the Kings of South Africa. Go and research the period of 1990 to 1994 and the term necklacing to see how black South Africans deal with black South Africans. Apartheid was wrong, but the aim was never to kill black South Africans.
And radio Zambia? Zambia supported and harboured the ANC terrorist groups, allowing them to travel to South Africa and Namibia to plant landmines and blow up malls and churches and then flee back to Zambia. You are foolish to think that Radio Zambia fed you the truth. In the same way that radio in South Africa was responsible for propaganda, radio Zambia was responsible for opposing propaganda.
Zambia accepted a lot of South African exiles . My aunt was one of them . I came to Zambia and went to the historic places where South African exiles used to live . I love Zambia 🇿🇲 ❤
I will never forget the exact words my grandmother said to me when describing Apartheid. "The Nazis basically made a comeback in South Africa" Her side of the family was originally from Germany, and growing up in the 30s made her fascinated with how democracies fail and oppressive regimes get put in place.
This is by far your best Videos, I dont say this just coz Im South African, but I love how you used Actual videos of the Apartheid Architects explaining what it, then adding commentary afterwards! I love the fact is that you have Real strong conclusions, and they realistic and unbiased! Appreciate your work!
Common citizens in the western world are ignorant of what Africa and Africans are being inflicted by their own governments. As an example, UK subjects hardly knew of the war wedged by their then government during the independance war in the US. Most of them are discovering those disturbing facts and truths via Google. Needless to explain that hadn't it been for the advent of the Internet, they would still be kept in the dark! Indeed, the world needs to be educated on hard truths and facts to dispel those propangadas which are only intended for manipulation.
"I wouldn't say inferior but a lesser state of development".... who is measuring this and upon which metrics? Sadly, a lot of folks still think this way in 2021. Great documentary.
Thank you so much NewAfrica. In Greece where I grew up and went to school, none of this is talked about, it is merely mentioned by some teachers. The books don't say anything about all this oppression. Thank you so much for this!
people feel leaving their country is the best way to get a secured job or business opportunities, but no because they still have many jobless people in that country they are running to
Brother please make a video of 20th to 21st century Ethiopian history. I'm a South African but I would just love to hear what happened during The emperors time and Mengistus time
Eight years of history classes in school, and we barely even touched on Sub-Saharan Africa. I've done a bit of reading on the subject myself over the years, but I've never seen it put in such a succinct and informative manner, especially from an African perspective. Thank you for making these videos.
Here in racist Australia we get little on African news! What I know is what I've read buying book from The Third World Bookshop here in Melbourne! I was lucky I had a mother who had told me as a youngster growing up about this wonderful man in Sth Africa named Nelson, Mandela n another Walter Sisulu both Giants of humanity! Where Black Africa has one another the Aus Aboriginals only have themselves but hasten to add a growing number of young white supporters n can only thank the likes of Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu for showing us the way? Thank hu so much for this video!

Looks like the ANC started on the Martin Luther King route, then went to the Malcolm X route and finally got things done. Prayer and non-violence don't work when your enemy doesn't even believe you should exist.
Your videos are like nothing else. Nobody else produces such well-research, stylish, humane videos on contemporary African history and politics. You havent uploaded in a while and you are sorely missed!
Amazing Video, great job. When Apartheid fell, whites left in droves. He had to be lenient for the sake of the economy. All the wealth was in white hands, introducing punitive measures would've capitulated the country. Also, Mandela had seen what happened to other African countries soon after gaining independence and so was faced with a tough decision, peace over radical transformation. Remember the black majority in the country also had different beliefs and ideologies amongst themselves, It is a miracle how South Africa was able to avoid internal conflict. Mandela played his part to the best of his abilities which is why I disagree with those that say he sold out. As South Africans, we've been dealt the toughest hand. Being part of a global, already past industrial age society makes it difficult for us to catch up in terms of creating real wealth. South Africans need real sustainable work, that's the only way out of this situation.
@@Greatanotherchannel South Africa always has riots. They're structural. The Durban riots were simply more intense and costly. I don't see how riots in any way contradict the comment above. They're nothing new.
Thank you for sharing this video. Nelson Mandela was a great man. I admire him so much for helping to free his people from their living nightmare. May he rest in peace.
Powerful. I like how u ended it saying SA is one of the unequal countries in the world with wealth being held by 10% of the population. I believe that Nelson Mandela has played his role and he will forever be remembered as an icon in history, tales of his bravery will be told. him and is generation has done their part in making a change, it’s time for our generation to make a change in the whole of Africa. This new generation (my gen) called gen Z and part of Gen M need to come to a realization that the west will forever manipulate us until we unity as one and fight for what is ours. Until then, the Africa nation will forever remain at the mercy of the west. We need great minds like Gaddafi, Mandela and ofcus, Patrice Lumumba.
The West's manipulation? Explain the Genocide in Rwanda, tribal fighting and massacres all over Africa for thousands of years, the Mfecane and the fact that there is still no peace in most African countries, 50 to 60 years after the west left. Africa will only change and prosper when it stops looking for others to blame for its problems and starts solving them by itself.
I dunno. From what I've seen in this video, he mainly managed to encourage the people to protest and later formed a militant organization to cause terror. The rest of his life was spent in prison. Apparently the drastic change in the South African leadership and the hugely historic events that came during 1989 to 1991 mainly influenced the end of apartheid.
@@outerspace7391 His impact was that he served as the spearhead for those protesting against apartheid, like MLK did in the US. The actions of Nelson Mandela and his unwillingness to "sell-out" to the South African apartheid authorities certainly affected foreign perceptions of apartheid South Africa which in turn led to it's inability to survive following the end of the Cold War. In many regards he was a spiritual leader for the fight against South Africa's apartheid and authoritarian tyranny. In regards to his support for MK, I'll say that I don't necessarily agree with Nelson's support for them but I can definitely see why he did. MK was a reaction to the apartheid government's far heavier use of force and terror on native Africans and "colored" people and I can see why MK would be formed and use the tactics it did against the apartheid government. The South African government was a much stronger established terrorist power with a vested interest in using it's power to terrorize, kill, and intimidate the much more numerous and disenfranchised native African people. I see using MK to fight them as a necessary evil that certainly overstepped it's boundaries but was justified in being used to fight the South African apartheid authorities. I hate violence but the South African authorities were willing to use every excuse and tool in their arsenal to terrorize the people of South Africa and as such, the African people needed a faction to fight them on the militant front. If you need me to explain my thoughts further I can, but that's how I view MK and Nelson Mandela (as an imperfect man, but a hero nonetheless).
Steven biko “The apartheid government doesn't keep you alive unless it's going to use you later.” couldn't agree more with biko because South African's are still in mental apartheid struggles.
@@ibrahimlamar6886 Cause of death: "fell from a police car" Things are pretty bad if writing "natural causes" becomes a less convincing excuse than saying outright that the police force is stupid as hell.
Change "the apartheid" to "all," and you will understand why a lot of western countries supported the Apartheid government, even though they were opposed morally to it or were opposed because then they can't say "go back to Africa" to Africans in their country.
This quote even applies to a certain degree to whites, since poor whites were forced into military service. Apartheid only really protected the upper class of whites. Yes poor whites were given more than blacks, but they were still below the elite whites. Racism is a lie told by the rich to keep the poor busy.
Today I stumbled upon your channel and binge watched a few of your videos. Very comprehensive content and lots of information I wouldn't be able to access without excessive research. Thank you very much for broadening my horizon in such a greatly elaborated way! Keep on doing what you're doing, it's great stuff!
My deepest of gratitude for making this video and this channel. My family moved out of South Africa when I was a kid, this channel, 2nacheki and a few others have become my window to African history and culture.
Thanks my brother a well researched documentary and very balanced not these western documentaries. I am a South African and I have been following your videos, they are the best keep up the good work. Looking forward to your other videos
thank you. this is by far my favorite history channel. you have helped me put things in context that I've been struggling with for so long. stay safe and take care of yourself
Absolutely love this! This is by far the best history channel on RUclips!!!! Furthermore it’s absolutely amazing to hear an African tell the African history, in an African narrative. Please do a take on Chris Hani from South Africa. His history will give a new take on democratic negotiations.
Thanks for this well done video. One part in this video that I really appreciated and that "opened" my eyes to the insurmountable task facing Mandela and co, was when you showed the footage of the Intellectual, Religious and Political argument that the Afrikaner National Party gave to justify this vile policy of Apartheid. Thanks for the educational content, looking forward to many more.
Such a difficult decision befell this man. Having to choose between greater wealth equality with the threat of being demonised by the West (potentially causing a fall in foreign investment and trade), or to allow wealth inequality, which while preventing condemnation and a national brain drain, left millions of his supporters in the lurch. Only time will tell if he made the right decision. Amandla Ngawethu! May he rest in peace.
how does forcefully nationalising and confiscating all the wealth of the white people create greater wealth equality if he did that South Africa would have ended up just like Zimbabwe or worse Nelson Mandela had flaws but he was a smart man who understood that he needed to compromise to ensure a prosperous future for all South Africans
There no need for widespread nationalization of all major industries in the economy. The government can function in a mixed economy that tolerates but regulates capitalism, but there's also state owned enterprises for production & sale of electricity, affordable Transport, farms and butcheries ,national parks and reserves ran by the state. The government alongside business can create employment and government can tax businesses and workers reasonably and use those funds to create efficient social services like quality basic & higher education, quality housing and healthcare etc to promote equality and right historical wrongs. The fundamental principle is that the state functions in a market economy for the satisfaction of basic needs like affordable and quality food, safety, housing etc and the private enterprises will satisfy our desires or wants like iPhones and PlayStations. It's simple but the politics and corruption can sometimes make it impossible. That's how some of the wealthiest and simultaneously happiest countries like Norway and Denmark do it. We try to do the same in SA but the toxic politics and corruption have our State owned enterprises failing and constantly being bailed out by taxpayers instead of turning a profit they'll use to eliminate inequality and improve the society the taxpayers live in
@Kiki Kiki Amazingly false, Saudi is a grotesque oligarchy with massive economic inequality, enormous poverty, and women who are essentially property, and Norway is extraordinarily libertarian in it's economic laws, accrued it's national endowment by spending significantly less than it makes, and has more billionaires per capita than the United States. You should probably watch this channel's documentary on why Botswana is Africa's greatest success. It would be absurd to juxtapose that example against it's peers and still believe the imaginary dichotomy of the appeasing the evil West vs alleviating poverty.
@Kiki Kiki There is a few falsehood with your statement, Norway is a NATO member and an EU member which is politically and ideologically aligned with the WEST. and for Saudi Arabia is a just a Vessel state for the UK Government and Queen Elizabeth. Please bring real examples of countries that nationalize their wealth and got away with it, e.g IRAN, Venezuela, Zimbabwe.
@@equilibrium1037 exactly my point those are hardly cases, he should mention IRAN, Venezuela, Zimbabwe even Libya etc many countries that tried to nationalize their national resources and what happens to them after.
Nicely done! You should make a video about Ethiopia and itd recent issues, but honestly, whatever the issue of the next video is going to be, I'll watch it!
Thank you so much for this informative video. I recently read a rather dry book on the history of South Africa. I found it to be a little too dense and academic for a general audience. This video, however, was informative for someone who wasn't already familiar with most aspects of South African history. Well done!
Thank you for this! I will not lie I did not know anything about this subject (apartheid) nor much at all about Nelson Mandela. I find this very educating and I want to learn more.
Great video. Mandela is very liberal-washed in the U.S. as a peace-loving moderate liberal, when he was in fact a socialist waging an armed struggle for liberation and the end of apartheid. I wish you would cover Thomas Sankara next. Thank you for the amazing content.
Mandela leaded an armed struggle and doing so is right in cases of oppression. The reason by why he is loved here is because he considered white South Africans as African as SA's black majority population.
Honestly stuff like this is so severely under taught and covered in media. These videos are really inspiring me to switch to study law and history and I thank you for all the time you put into these.
It is most interesting thing. I use to study wars until I read political and economic history most interesting thing for me. You really answer yourself why World and countries are like this you start connecting dots and it is very fascinating when you do it.
I think I’ve watched all your videos now, first of all damn amazing work. I think I’ve learned more about African history than all of hisghchool and 4 years of university in Canada. Second, I can’t believe how much amazing archival footage you always find, it really elevates the videos. Great stuff!
@NewAfrica, please keep these informative videos coming. As an African in the diaspora, this particular video brought tears to my eyes due to the knowledge of the atrocities faced by my South African brothers and sisters as well as, great joy to my heart in seeing us triumph over that great evil which was Apartheid. I pray that one day our people as a whole can achieve that great future which is our ordinance and that Mandela's legacy is not squandered by us his forerunners. Amandla Ngawethu!
A while back I had a random itch to know more about African geopolitics and History. I then found this channel and since then I have sat through most of your videos. Very informative, very well-done and, most importantly, very intellectually honest. I'm grateful for the material, subscribed for more in the future! If anyone knows of good videos on the older history of Africa (anywhere from stone age to the 1800s), that would also be appreciated.
@@southernafricanboy4148 Am I wrong? There are many parts of rural Africa still today where the people have no electricity or running water, live in huts, hunt with spears, etc. That's basically a Stone Age lifestyle. Not saying it's a bad thing.
As a Christian, it grieves my spirit to see how much religion has been and is still been used by some to oppress others. This is simply demonic and those people will someday give an account to the Creator who created us all in His image✝️
That's good old American Christianity..not Catholic Orthodox Judaism..Lds or Islam...but those Born Agains that throw their evil impulses onto jesus n refuse to change
Go to minute 7:27 which is a HUGE reassurance for me that there were those in the faith who saw contradictions in the marriage of apartheid and the church
I'm Pan African, and I don't like the outcome of South Africa. The Black majority still poor, and wealth inequality is still divided by race. However, Mandela is just one man. We should not put the burden fixing all South Africa problems on him. He did his part on history, and he did well. We, the post Mandela generation should continue the struggle for a better Africa. This time our struggle is not against the apartheid or colonialism, but against the extreme corruption, and the system that keep most Africans poor.
Very nice sentiment. Tragically yet ironically, the ANC has now become the oppressor. They’ve become intoxicated by power and refuse to make meaningful changes to the country for fear of losing that power. There are many things they could do to help lessen the current crisis: increase income taxes to get more from the still ridiculously disproportionally -wealthy whites (especially when the cost of living there is still fairly low right now) and use that extra income to invest more in electricity production, initiate reforms to help cut down on corruption, maybe create a federal system that could allow different regions of such a diverse country to better fulfill their specific needs. But they don’t. Because then they lose some of their power. If Mandela was still around today, he would be appalled by what has happened to the ANC. Once again, South Africans need to stand up against the ANC for a better future.
So many thanks for this works. African and Caribbean history are criminally undertaught and this channel is making strides to change it. It baffles me that people who were born/raised in a country that their people colonized really thought that they were superior and were here to "develop" non-whites. Absolutely crazy what is humans are capable of
Yes, you are correct. While he was in prison he and Winnie were responsible for the necklacing (burning alive) of hundreds of political opponents. Look it up. Dive deep because the media wants to cleanse anything negative about these murders. I was alive when this was going on and followed it. There is a whole different story being told now. He had the opportunity to become what he is touted to be today. I was saddened by my findings.
She was the queen of necklacing. None of the promises he talked about came true. SA currently has some of the highest crime/murder rates in the world. They were fighting communism not blacks. In fact it was mostly black on black killings. White farmers in SA have literally the highest death rate of any other occupation in the world
I really never understood history especially in school. Now just hitting 30 I find myself wanting to learn as much as possible and love your videos. However, it pains me to watch at times bc the anger and disgust I feel in my stomach and the way humans treat other humans and how anyone could be okay with treating others as if they weren't even a human. How do these people in charge get to these positions? Pure evil.
We Africans don’t have a history of oppressing people, it’s your people who are always oppressing dark people of the Earth. Our people need to be separated from your people for our own sake. That time will come

I would like to thank you for making these well researched and sited videos of Africa, its history and leaders. Being South African it is good to see such great reporting done. I have always seen Mandela as a role model, however I feel that many other activists such as Steve Biko, Chris Hani and Oliver Tambo and more receive little recognition for their momentous effort and sacrifice for a better future. I know they were never president but if you ever come back to another video on RSA, their history is something that would be great to see represented. And just a note that after Mandela's release, the 18 months prior to his presidency were some of the most violent, controversial and important, highlighting this period is important. In general, please continue making these videos as they really help explain the good and the bad of all our leaders and countries, which ultimately will help the future generation to learn and forge a better future.
I love this channel. African history in school here (Germany) is sadly mostly limited to "This country got colonized by X in the year 1XXX and got independence in 19XX". The only parts I know a little more about from school is the north coast, but even there it's only ancient history (Egypt and Rome). You really help me understand the layered and diverse history of this giant continent. Thank you!
@@chiyenyumba7135 Yeah, there is a reason: we have a complex history, Holy Roman Empire.. medival times, fought a lot of wars and you know... the holocaust. Then after WW2 our country got divided and followed by important events was unified again. We can't teach history 10 times a week.

Thank you so much NewAfrica. In Greece where I grew up and went to school, none of this is talked about, it is merely mentioned by some teachers. The books don't say anything about all this oppression. Thank you so much for this!
Yes because it is about Greek history. If schools were teaching global history then school would never end
The kleptocrats that control Greek education don't care about the quality of your education. No surprise there. Nigeria is also a kleptocracy.

Looks like the ANC started on the Martin Luther King route, then went to the Malcolm X route and finally got things done. Prayer and non-violence don't work when your enemy doesn't even believe you should exist.

Just found this channel, super informative and cleverly written!
Looking forward to the video and to hear your perspective and analysis of his life and legacy
Amazing Video, great job. When Apartheid fell, whites left in droves. He had to be lenient for the sake of the economy. All the wealth was in white hands, introducing punitive measures would've capitulated the country. Also, Mandela had seen what happened to other African countries soon after gaining independence and so was faced with a tough decision, peace over radical transformation. Remember the black majority in the country also had different beliefs and ideologies amongst themselves, It is a miracle how South Africa was able to avoid internal conflict. Mandela played his part to the best of his abilities which is why I disagree with those that say he sold out. As South Africans, we've been dealt the toughest hand. Being part of a global, already past industrial age society makes it difficult for us to catch up in terms of creating real wealth. South Africans need real sustainable work, that's the only way out of this situation.

Thank you for sharing this video. Nelson Mandela was a great man. I admire him so much for helping to free his people from their living nightmare.
May he rest in peace.
Powerful. I like how u ended it saying SA is one of the unequal countries in the world with wealth being held by 10% of the population. I believe that Nelson Mandela has played his role and he will forever be remembered as an icon in history, tales of his bravery will be told. him and is generation has done their part in making a change, it’s time for our generation to make a change in the whole of Africa. This new generation (my gen) called gen Z and part of Gen M need to come to a realization that the west will forever manipulate us until we unity as one and fight for what is ours. Until then, the Africa nation will forever remain at the mercy of the west. We need great minds like Gaddafi, Mandela and ofcus, Patrice Lumumba.
The West's manipulation? Explain the Genocide in Rwanda, tribal fighting and massacres all over Africa for thousands of years, the Mfecane and the fact that there is still no peace in most African countries, 50 to 60 years after the west left.
Africa will only change and prosper when it stops looking for others to blame for its problems and starts solving them by itself.
You prefer quality over quantity and that’s why I watch absolutely everything you post.
The man was certainly not perfect but he fought and defeated apartheid like a warrior and that deserves respect. A true son of Africa 🌍!
I dunno. From what I've seen in this video, he mainly managed to encourage the people to protest and later formed a militant organization to cause terror. The rest of his life was spent in prison. Apparently the drastic change in the South African leadership and the hugely historic events that came during 1989 to 1991 mainly influenced the end of apartheid.
@@outerspace7391 His impact was that he served as the spearhead for those protesting against apartheid, like MLK did in the US. The actions of Nelson Mandela and his unwillingness to "sell-out" to the South African apartheid authorities certainly affected foreign perceptions of apartheid South Africa which in turn led to it's inability to survive following the end of the Cold War. In many regards he was a spiritual leader for the fight against South Africa's apartheid and authoritarian tyranny. In regards to his support for MK, I'll say that I don't necessarily agree with Nelson's support for them but I can definitely see why he did. MK was a reaction to the apartheid government's far heavier use of force and terror on native Africans and "colored" people and I can see why MK would be formed and use the tactics it did against the apartheid government. The South African government was a much stronger established terrorist power with a vested interest in using it's power to terrorize, kill, and intimidate the much more numerous and disenfranchised native African people. I see using MK to fight them as a necessary evil that certainly overstepped it's boundaries but was justified in being used to fight the South African apartheid authorities. I hate violence but the South African authorities were willing to use every excuse and tool in their arsenal to terrorize the people of South Africa and as such, the African people needed a faction to fight them on the militant front. If you need me to explain my thoughts further I can, but that's how I view MK and Nelson Mandela (as an imperfect man, but a hero nonetheless).
@@ethans.1905 Explain why MK is still a thing then.
@@viceroy___ It's my understanding that they were folded into the SA military as part of P&R. Are they back?
And now look at South Africa
Steven biko “The apartheid government doesn't keep you alive unless it's going to use you later.” couldn't agree more with biko because South African's are still in mental apartheid struggles.
My brother you must understand if they had killed Mandela the whole of SA SA would have erupted
They would have killed him in prison, and claims he died natural deaths.
@@ibrahimlamar6886 Cause of death: "fell from a police car"
Things are pretty bad if writing "natural causes" becomes a less convincing excuse than saying outright that the police force is stupid as hell.
Change "the apartheid" to "all," and you will understand why a lot of western countries supported the Apartheid government, even though they were opposed morally to it or were opposed because then they can't say "go back to Africa" to Africans in their country.
This quote even applies to a certain degree to whites, since poor whites were forced into military service. Apartheid only really protected the upper class of whites. Yes poor whites were given more than blacks, but they were still below the elite whites. Racism is a lie told by the rich to keep the poor busy.

Thanks for this well done video. One part in this video that I really appreciated and that "opened" my eyes to the insurmountable task facing Mandela and co, was when you showed the footage of the Intellectual, Religious and Political argument that the Afrikaner National Party gave to justify this vile policy of Apartheid. Thanks for the educational content, looking forward to many more.
This is the best Documentary I have seen on Nelson Mandela!
Such a difficult decision befell this man. Having to choose between greater wealth equality with the threat of being demonised by the West (potentially causing a fall in foreign investment and trade), or to allow wealth inequality, which while preventing condemnation and a national brain drain, left millions of his supporters in the lurch. Only time will tell if he made the right decision.
Amandla Ngawethu! May he rest in peace.
how does forcefully nationalising and confiscating all the wealth of the white people create greater wealth equality if he did that South Africa would have ended up just like Zimbabwe or worse Nelson Mandela had flaws but he was a smart man who understood that he needed to compromise to ensure a prosperous future for all South Africans
There no need for widespread nationalization of all major industries in the economy. The government can function in a mixed economy that tolerates but regulates capitalism, but there's also state owned enterprises for production & sale of electricity, affordable Transport, farms and butcheries ,national parks and reserves ran by the state. The government alongside business can create employment and government can tax businesses and workers reasonably and use those funds to create efficient social services like quality basic & higher education, quality housing and healthcare etc to promote equality and right historical wrongs. The fundamental principle is that the state functions in a market economy for the satisfaction of basic needs like affordable and quality food, safety, housing etc and the private enterprises will satisfy our desires or wants like iPhones and PlayStations. It's simple but the politics and corruption can sometimes make it impossible. That's how some of the wealthiest and simultaneously happiest countries like Norway and Denmark do it. We try to do the same in SA but the toxic politics and corruption have our State owned enterprises failing and constantly being bailed out by taxpayers instead of turning a profit they'll use to eliminate inequality and improve the society the taxpayers live in
@Kiki Kiki Amazingly false, Saudi is a grotesque oligarchy with massive economic inequality, enormous poverty, and women who are essentially property, and Norway is extraordinarily libertarian in it's economic laws, accrued it's national endowment by spending significantly less than it makes, and has more billionaires per capita than the United States.
You should probably watch this channel's documentary on why Botswana is Africa's greatest success. It would be absurd to juxtapose that example against it's peers and still believe the imaginary dichotomy of the appeasing the evil West vs alleviating poverty.
@Kiki Kiki There is a few falsehood with your statement, Norway is a NATO member and an EU member which is politically and ideologically aligned with the WEST. and for Saudi Arabia is a just a Vessel state for the UK Government and Queen Elizabeth. Please bring real examples of countries that nationalize their wealth and got away with it, e.g IRAN, Venezuela, Zimbabwe.
@@equilibrium1037 exactly my point those are hardly cases, he should mention IRAN, Venezuela, Zimbabwe even Libya etc many countries that tried to nationalize their national resources and what happens to them after.

Been a while, glad to see you again!
Thank you so much for this informative video. I recently read a rather dry book on the history of South Africa. I found it to be a little too dense and academic for a general audience. This video, however, was informative for someone who wasn't already familiar with most aspects of South African history. Well done!
This is much more detailed than what I was taught in college .damn
Thank you for this! I will not lie I did not know anything about this subject (apartheid) nor much at all about Nelson Mandela. I find this very educating and I want to learn more.
Great video.
Mandela is very liberal-washed in the U.S. as a peace-loving moderate liberal, when he was in fact a socialist waging an armed struggle for liberation and the end of apartheid.
I wish you would cover Thomas Sankara next. Thank you for the amazing content.
@GOOD yes. Doesn’t mean Mandela wasn’t
Yh I want one on Sankara too🥰🥰
Mandela leaded an armed struggle and doing so is right in cases of oppression. The reason by why he is loved here is because he considered white South Africans as African as SA's black majority population.
One of the best clapbacks ever against in the beginning
I think Mandela did his part in breaking apartheid. Now South Africa's next quest is to fight for economic emancipation.
Keep up the quality work as usual, education in our history is the highest of priorities
Honestly stuff like this is so severely under taught and covered in media. These videos are really inspiring me to switch to study law and history and I thank you for all the time you put into these.
It is most interesting thing. I use to study wars until I read political and economic history most interesting thing for me. You really answer yourself why World and countries are like this you start connecting dots and it is very fascinating when you do it.
I think I’ve watched all your videos now, first of all damn amazing work. I think I’ve learned more about African history than all of hisghchool and 4 years of university in Canada. Second, I can’t believe how much amazing archival footage you always find, it really elevates the videos. Great stuff!
why would Canadian highschools or Universities (unless you specifically do African studies) teach about African history? What would be the relevance?
@NewAfrica, please keep these informative videos coming. As an African in the diaspora, this particular video brought tears to my eyes due to the knowledge of the atrocities faced by my South African brothers and sisters as well as, great joy to my heart in seeing us triumph over that great evil which was Apartheid. I pray that one day our people as a whole can achieve that great future which is our ordinance and that Mandela's legacy is not squandered by us his forerunners. Amandla Ngawethu!

Thank you for giving me Africa's true history!
I'm Pan African, and I don't like the outcome of South Africa. The Black majority still poor, and wealth inequality is still divided by race. However, Mandela is just one man. We should not put the burden fixing all South Africa problems on him. He did his part on history, and he did well. We, the post Mandela generation should continue the struggle for a better Africa. This time our struggle is not against the apartheid or colonialism, but against the extreme corruption, and the system that keep most Africans poor.
I'm South African, what can we do my fellow African brethren do remedy the situation we find ourselves in
Very nice sentiment. Tragically yet ironically, the ANC has now become the oppressor. They’ve become intoxicated by power and refuse to make meaningful changes to the country for fear of losing that power. There are many things they could do to help lessen the current crisis: increase income taxes to get more from the still ridiculously disproportionally -wealthy whites (especially when the cost of living there is still fairly low right now) and use that extra income to invest more in electricity production, initiate reforms to help cut down on corruption, maybe create a federal system that could allow different regions of such a diverse country to better fulfill their specific needs. But they don’t. Because then they lose some of their power. If Mandela was still around today, he would be appalled by what has happened to the ANC. Once again, South Africans need to stand up against the ANC for a better future.
This video should be preserved for generations to come. It should serve as a reminder and the mirror of how we value each into the future.
This is amazing! A job well done

Don't forget about Winnie Mandela's continued fight even while Nelson was imprisoned.💚💚💚
Yes, you are correct. While he was in prison he and Winnie were responsible for the necklacing (burning alive) of hundreds of political opponents. Look it up. Dive deep because the media wants to cleanse anything negative about these murders. I was alive when this was going on and followed it. There is a whole different story being told now. He had the opportunity to become what he is touted to be today. I was saddened by my findings.
And the murders Winnie and her gang committed. Nelson divorced her after she killed a 12 year old kid. Let’s not forget that
She was the queen of necklacing.
None of the promises he talked about came true. SA currently has some of the highest crime/murder rates in the world.
They were fighting communism not blacks. In fact it was mostly black on black killings.
White farmers in SA have literally the highest death rate of any other occupation in the world
I really never understood history especially in school. Now just hitting 30 I find myself wanting to learn as much as possible and love your videos.

I would like to thank you for making these well researched and sited videos of Africa, its history and leaders. Being South African it is good to see such great reporting done.
I have always seen Mandela as a role model, however I feel that many other activists such as Steve Biko, Chris Hani and Oliver Tambo and more receive little recognition for their momentous effort and sacrifice for a better future. I know they were never president but if you ever come back to another video on RSA, their history is something that would be great to see represented.
And just a note that after Mandela's release, the 18 months prior to his presidency were some of the most violent, controversial and important, highlighting this period is important.
In general, please continue making these videos as they really help explain the good and the bad of all our leaders and countries, which ultimately will help the future generation to learn and forge a better future.
Its about time!!! I love you guys
This is a greatest African story ever told... Every south African should watch this. Its just a must!

You really help me understand the layered and diverse history of this giant continent. Thank you!

@@chiyenyumba7135 Yeah, there is a reason: we have a complex history, Holy Roman Empire.. medival times, fought a lot of wars and you know... the holocaust. Then after WW2 our country got divided and followed by important events was unified again. We can't teach history 10 times a week.
