A glimpse into the harrowing conditions Mandela endured during his imprisonment. #OtiMabuseMySouthAfrica #iPlayer
Oti ends her trip in Cape Town, home of her middle sister, Phemelo: the only one of the three Mabuse sisters not to be involved in dance and to have remained in South Africa. In Cape Town Oti visits Robben Island and reflects on what happened to Nelson Mandela and the political leaders of her country’s past. And she reflects on the dark history that, as one of the ‘Born Free’ generation, she never knew first hand.

South Africans survived unimaginable evil.
Mandela was released from prison in 1990 – that is 33 years ago. Since then how has South Africa fared? Systemic corruption within the ANC from top to bottom. The Zuma years were probably the worst – with the Guptas nearlty running the country. Electricity blackouts 12 hours a day in Johannesbueg and set to get worse in winter. I watched this documentary on my way back from South Africa 2 days ago and I would say it is biased or talking about the old past. Yes Mandela spent 18 years at Robben Island. But those days are long gone. In the documentary she says the country is 33 years old. What complete garbage. They started off with a strong economy in 1994- Eskom worked, as did Denel (arms manufacturer), water worked, Joburg city was city to be proud of (with the exception of the center) which had started to go down. It has got progressively worse. She then talks about Orania, a white Afikaans area which they want to keep excluvely white, and as a represetative of white racism. OK, then she goes back to her homeland which is completely black and cannot see the irony there. How many whites live in the black area? Would they be invited in? As South Africa has concentrated on BEE (Black economic empowerment) the country has got progressively worse. Instead if trying to lift the country up by its bootstraps, it all about BEE. As long as you are black you can succeed, but it has got worse. Why is that? What have the Zuma's and the Ramaphosa's done to country. Ramphosa hiding millilions of dollars in his couch, which was stolen and then not reported, while the ANC talked about Apartheid, Apartheid… ad nauseam. Time to move on and realise this is 2023. It is not 2000, 1976, or 1994, and time for the country and it leaders to give themselves a kick, and get back to reality and get the country working again.
He was Appointed commander and chief of the uMkhonto we Sizwe a Armed Terrorist group who he personally commanded Slaughtered scores of innocent black and white people even blowing up a school killing 33 children and 1 teacher and after being captured even though the government wanted to let him out if he Renounced violence just to stop people dying but instead he started asking for something silly along the lines of “we will if you agree to do the same” along with a last of other silly demands, he was a bad man, who changed later in life but is a life time of “doing good” enough to forgive the taking of even 1 child’s life? I don’t think so, now you need to ask “who had enough Influence and power to take a man from known Terrorist in prison to peaceful rights Activist to President”, good luck 🤞
Great leader
This is such a biased piece. Yes the conditions were bad, but in any prison they are, no matter what country. This short is made to make people think the prisoners were left in their cells 24/7. They didn't. If you know the story of Nelson Mandela and his fellow inmates in prison, they worked the mines, that is how his eyes became so sensitive and exercised in the yard, just like in so many prisons at that time in history. It is also not true that all the guards were white and rascist. James Gregory became Nelson Mandela's friend, maybe only one we know of but it disputes the comment that all were rascist. Another point made that Nelson Mandela would be proud today of the South Africa that has become since 1994. I do not believe that to be true. South Africa today is not the democracy he dreamed of, in fact they are far from it and I feel sorry for President Ramaphosa trying to lift the country out of the quagmire it is currently in.
Look how great SA is now that these prisons are closed
I have been here!
I’ve been fortunate to visit this site, and observe his cell up close. It is almost a spiritual experience to realize that this historical and courageous man was consigned to this tiny cell for 18 years.
I mean he was a terrorist
The dude had the same conditions for 12 years as mandela… pretty rude in my opinion to only talk about mandela in front of a prisoner
I have nothing against a total black south africa and I have nothing against a total german germany . the planet is meaningfully divided into cultures, races, mentalities. otherwise – civil wars, conflicts, degeneration. the magic word is Identity.
I can't worship this person anymore. Soon as I found out that his wife is responsible for "necklacing" her enemies. Necklacing is where they fill a rubber tire with gasoline. Put it around your enemies neck and light it on fire. It's one of thee worst ways to die. This was done to teenage boys and girls that snitched on her. Like very young children. That's not the work of a Gandi like figure. War is war. War crimes are war crimes. There are no "good war crimes". This should be taught to people/students. Education should be balanced, just and fair. Lies in education should never be tolerated to create heros.
Ooh is this a series?
Do Assange next.
Such terrible conditions and so inspiring video. I am from Russia, so I know there are a lot of political prisoners in my country (Navalny, Yashin etc.), they are heroes like Nelson Mandela was. I hope and even I know, in near future we will see the same videos from Pokrov and other prisons in Russia.
I want learn english ! How away to that
It's so sad he died here
Proud? He'd be horrified at the crime and corruption.
Nelson Mandela was One of the most Africa Legend and also a greatest Leader.💙 🌍🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
The U.S. series The Amazing Race has been on for 34 Seasons, it has traveled South Africa for 3 of them (Seasons 1, 2 & 7), & in Season 2 the teams actually got to visit this prison to retrieve a clue from Mandela's cell.
this was emotional
