Nelson Mandela is remembered worldwide as a symbol of freedom and reconciliation. Yet the end of apartheid and the rise of the ANC also ushered in a new era of political turmoil, economic decline, and violent crime that transformed South Africa. In this episode of Forgotten History, we examine Mandela’s rise from prisoner to president, the global campaign that elevated him to icon status, and the controversial legacy of the political revolution that followed. Was Mandela a liberator who ended injustice, or did the transition unleash forces that reshaped South Africa in ways few predicted? The story is more complex than the legend.
