african independence

this blog i will be talking about how the africans got their indepnednece from the white people from the european countries. First i am going to talk about england becuase they where one of the countries that many resources from africa that many countries where freed by their empire. also their was france spain and many others that had control over africa. So what happned was some countries didnt use violence and some countires just didnt know what todo and rampaged and then used non violence to get their independence. then africa little by little the countries where being given their independence so then african countries were freed but then they were so poor becuase they were left alone but with no help at all.

nelson mandela and the aparthied

This guy was a freedom hero who helped put people from slavery. he made most countries from africa from slavery he basicly was like the father and hero of africa he went to jail for many reasons when he came out he some lines saying that what was the point of being free from prison if really no one is really free out their in Africa or whereever their was slavery. this act or line that he made was very inspirational for the african people all over Africa. He said Africa was like a gold mine because of its great resources that were their. So it was not fair that all those riches were for other countries that controled parts of Africa so a lot of people voted for Nelson Mandela for president of south Africa. This was great for the African people because now all the countries were influenced by what Nelson Mandela went through and they all decided to get free and become independent countries.

"The Right Stuff"

The right stuff was about some people going to space. The americans and the russians where going to have a race to which nation can get to space first. even though eventually the russians did get to the moon first. In the mean time the americans were developing their space shuttle to get to the moon and to be safer. the americans then later on went to the moon and made one big step for man kind. They might of won the race to sapce but the americans got to the moon and gave the great step for mankind which is better than flying around and doing anything.
