How does Mandela describe the systems of government in his country
(i) in the first decade, and
(ii) in the final decade, of the twentieth century?


(i) In the first decade, the white-skinned people of South Africa practised racism that gave rise to a system of racial domination against the dark-skinned people living there. The system formed the basis of one of the harshest, most inhumane societies the world had ever known.

(ii) In the last decade of the twentieth century, the previous system had been overturned forever and replaced by one that recognized the rights and freedoms of all peoples, regardless of the colour of their skin.
