1. After 27 years of prision, Nelson Mandela was still the leader of the anti-apartheid movement, he wanted to end the racial oppression but with peace and democracy. His first public words after leaving prision were "Comrades and fellow South Africans, I greet you all in the name of peace, democracy and freedom,"

2. Nelson Mandela was ready to move on, in fact he had a reunion with the president of South Africa one night before leaving prision, which started a series of negotiations that ended the apartheid and resulted in Mandela being president in 1994.
