UN News – Mr. Mandela addressed the Assembly in October 1994, he received a hero’s welcome. History was unfolding as he took his place on the dais in the white leather chair reserved for Heads of State and Government. Cheers erupted as he approached the podium. A collective standing ovation rose across the Assembly Hall.Indeed, the previous year, the lawyer and civil rights leader had received the Nobel Peace Prize for his costly battle in ending apartheid, a system of legalised segregation, modelled after the United States’s “separate but equal” Jim Crow race laws for Blacks, that was strictly enforced by South Africa’s white-only government from 1948 to 1994.
