Caption from poster__ The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall 46664 Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela (born July 18, 1918) was the first President of South Africa to be elected in fully-representative democratic elections. Before his presidency, Mandela was a prominent anti-apartheid activist and leader of the African National Congress (ANC), and was imprisoned on a conviction for sabotage after he went underground and began the ANC's armed struggle. He was released from prison after serving 27 years of his sentence. Following his release from prison in 1990, his switch to a policy of reconciliation and negotiation helped lead the transition to multi-racial democracy in South Africa. Since the end of apartheid, he has been widely praised, even among white South Africans and former opponents.
