About this listen

One of the most comprehensive oral histories of apartheid, Mandela: An Audio History tells the story of the struggle against apartheid. It weaves together more than 50 first-person interviews with an unprecedented collection of archival sound: a rare recording of the 1964 trial that resulted in Mandela’s life sentence; a visit between Mandela and his family secretly taped by a prison guard; and pirate radio broadcasts from the African National Congress.

Most relevant
I’ve lived most of my life in the UK, but as a white person born in South Africa in the 90’s it’s been an incredible education to learn more of the history that has inherently formed part of my future. A palpable, nostalgic account of the most important and greatest fight for change South Africa has ever seen; led by the man who for that fight was willing to die.
