On June 14th, 1964, Nelson Mandela was sentenced to life imprisonment in South Africa. Mandela was a prominent anti-apartheid activist and leader of the African National Congress (ANC). He was convicted of sabotage and attempting to overthrow the apartheid government.
During his trial, Mandela delivered a powerful speech in which he declared, "I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die."
Mandela spent 27 years in prison before being released in 1990. He went on to negotiate an end to apartheid and become the first black President of South Africa in 1994. Mandela's leadership and vision for a free and equal society have inspired people around the world.
