Mandela International Day
18 July
A film guide that looks at Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom (2013), a chronicle of Nelson Mandela's life journey from his childhood in a rural village through to his inauguration as president of South Africa.
This guide is useful for exploring topics including Citizenship, Politics, History and Literacy in addition to highlighting themes surroundinghistorical movements, historical figures, autobiographies, equality, community, love and relationships, campaigns and revolutions, crime and punishment, racism and prejudice, and African countries.
We have developed a large catalogue of educational resources since launching in 2013, and some references and terminology will inevitably have dated as society and language evolves. We are aware of this and will be updating resources when our production schedule allows.
