I will continue fighting for freedom until the end of my days.” - Nelson Mandela. Nelson Mandela showed us that sometimes just one person standing up for freedom can change the world.

The poems Africa and Flying Man by Rabindranath Tagore show the negative effects of man-made destruction. The destruction is the way they have mistreated the people of Africa, as well as changing the way nature used to be, from the peaceful harmonious nature to inventing more modernised technologies, making man seem more arrogant. The focus of the two poems is how man has destroyed the earth with their actions, and the poet does this by using imagery and figurative language. In Africa, Tagore…

In my opinion, the speech ‘I Have A Dream’ by Martin Luther King Jr. was a better speech in many ways than ‘Glory And Hope’ by Nelson Mandela. The similarities between both the speeches were many too. Both the speeches have many metaphors in them like ‘A promissory note, a bad check’ in MLK’s speech and ‘As intimately attached to the soil of this beautiful country as are the famous jacaranda trees of Pretoria and the mimosa trees of the bushveld.’ in Mandela’s speech. The metaphors that are…

The South Africa government or the Apartheid did not want the black majority in South Africa to have any power of justice. If the Apartheid gave the black majority power, then the British people could lose their advantages, more likely the white people could lose their advantages.

Thus, Mandela received the Nobel Prize for Peace (Britannica, 2016). 27 years as a strong-willed prisoner (Shriberg and Shriberg, 2011, p. ) improved his personal development of forgiveness for his rivals, formed his strength and established supplementary leadership skills like…

“The Hajji” demonstrates a great deal of inner conflict which can only be understood in a wider social and political context by looking at aspects such as racial separation and the role of the individual and their community. This can be seen by looking at Hassen’s behaviour towards his brother because of Apartheid. The story is set in South Africa; however, the characters are of Indian heritage which shows how racial injustices are linked to the issues of Apartheid. During Apartheid the Group…

Kaffir Boy Apartheid in South Africa refers to the time where blacks were stripped of their rights from 1948 to 1994. The minority whites in South Africa called for discrimination against non-whites and supremacy amongst themselves. Moreover, acts such as the Prohibition of Mixed Marriage Act, Population Registration Act, and others established a social order based on race. Mark Mathabane wrote Kaffir Boy as an autobiography. The title is a representation of the dehumanization that blacks…
