Happy 92nd Birthday Nelson Mandela!

Today is Nelson Mandela‘s birthday. Born Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela in Mvezo, South Africa on 18th July 1918,  the former president was imprisoned for 27 years of his life for his position in the fight against South Africa’s apartheid system. In power between 10th May 1994 to 14th June 1999, the civil rights legend is heralded as a hero worldwide.

“A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination.”

– Nelson Mandela
