Nelson Mandela Monologue - Speech
Only a small amount of people know that my real name is Rolihlahla. Mostly, I am recognised as Nelson Mandela. When I started school at age 7, my teacher changed my name to Nelson. We weren't allowed to keep our African names because of the British bias of our education. I didn't just lose a name, I lost a part of myself, of my identity. The whites either couldn't or refused to pronounce our real names.

Africa. Every single day, situations arose, where I had the power to put white men through what they put me through. I never did. Not once. I would just be using discrimination and prejudice all over again. Isn't that what I had been fighting against my entire life?
I am now 87 years old, and still fighting Prejudice and Discrimination, against blacks and whites, and I will continue to do so until the day I die.
