Biography:
Nelson Mandela, featured in the "Celebrities" dataset, was a South African anti-apartheid revolutionary, political leader, and philanthropist.
He was born in 1918 in the Eastern Cape and became a key figure in the African National Congress (ANC), advocating for the end of racial segregation known as apartheid.
Due to his activism, Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years, from 1964 to 1990. His imprisonment became a symbol of injustice and inspired global campaigns for his release.
Following his release, Mandela played a crucial role in the transition to a multiracial democracy in South Africa. He served as President of South Africa from 1994 to 1999.
Mandela was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993, along with F.W. de Klerk, for their work in ending apartheid. He is widely revered for his commitment to equality, reconciliation, and human rights.
He died in 2013, leaving behind a legacy as one of the most influential figures of the 20th century.
