Chapter 23

You have got to be kidding me! The first black president in South Africa was also in prison for 27 years!? Can you imagine if Obama was in prison before he decided to run for president? He would not even had a second look at by the people, he would have been out of the running before he could even have a chance to show himself. It is really amazing to me how a man locked up for 27 years could be the next president of his country. Other than this interesting and unique story, chapter 23 really focusses on the indepence in European and other countries. Throughout this independence, we are introduced to Gandhi and what his big role was- his fight for freedom and rights.
