Answer 1

Mandela thought of independence as "new born liberty," since they the blacks had just attained their freedom, & it was like a "new born baby" . Just as a how a mother struggles to bring her child into the world, freedom too has been accomplished through pain, hardships, & difficulty.

Explanation:

• A "Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela", is an extract from Nelson Mandela's autobiography and includes details about " the inauguration ceremony", excerpts from his speech, his journey to independence, the struggle and the celebration of those who have been struggling for their freedoms.
• A brutal practise called apartheid was practised in South Africa. Apartheid refers to segregation on the grounds of race amongst individuals. It was one of the most violent cultures where people with dark skins were denied their constitutional rights.
• Nelson Mandela had gained his strength to fight the wrong from great nationalists who risked their life for independence and accepted ill-treatment, but never stopped fighting against it. He learnt that "courage" does not mean the lack of fear, but rather the ability to conquer fear.
• As South Africa's newly elected and first black President, Nelson Mandela needed to free South Africa from all discriminatory practises. He created the principles for a world free from oppression, inequality and injustice.
• Mandela referred apartheid regime as “an extraordinary human disaster” that was existent under the former government in South Africa. Ethnic people have been treated poorly and nobody wants that. He rejected the oppressive policies and won the democratic elections in order to become South Africa's first black president. He terms this honour "glorious human achievement."
