The decades of brutality and oppression against the blacks in South Africa had produced many men of extraordinary wisdom, generosity and courage that like them no one must have heard and known again

Explanation:

• Nelson Mandela in his inaugural speech at the time of taking over as the South Africa's first ever black President, at the Pretoria's Union Building  amphitheatre  stated that - the policy of apartheid created a deep and lasting wound  in  his nation and his people.  He said that all of them would spend several years, lest  generations,  recuperating from that deep, intense hurt.
• However, the  decades of  brutality and oppression also had another impact, although unintended, that  it  produced  several  great black leaders such as  OliverTambos, the Chief Luthulis, the  RobertSobukwes  the Walter Sisulus,   the  Bram  Fischers,  and theYusuf  Dadoos, of his time - men of extraordinary wisdom, generosity and courage that like them no one must have heard and known again
• Nelson Mandela said that, possibly,  it requires  such profound depths  of  brutality and oppression to create characters of such great heights. He further stated that his country is rich  in gems and minerals that lie under its  soil,  however, he had always known  that  his nation's  greatest  wealth  were his  people, truer and finer than  the  purest  gems.
• It  is  from  these  greats comrades  in  their  struggle  that  Nelson Mandela had learned  the true meaning  of  courage.  Time and again, Mandela had witnessed women and men risk and sacrifice heir lives for  an  idea.  He  had  seen  men  stand  up  to torture and  attacks without  breaking,  showing resilience and strength which defies the imagination. Nelson Mandel learnt that for a brave man courage  was  not  the  absence  of  fear,  but conquering such fear
