Leadership & Legacy In History: Nelson Mandela |
Process Questions:
I chose this topic because it has a really good argument starting point. My topic is Nelson Mandela and his fight for equality in South America. My thesis statement is that Nelson Mandela was a strong man. He fought for many equality rights. He changed a lot and made more justice for South America. For example, some people might not think that Nelson Mandela was a good man and have their reasoning, but it is my job to disagree and argue to tell why he was a good man to me.
I researched/developed my topic by looking at a list of topics thought of by the national history day comittee. These were based on the theme. I chose my category to tell my fellow peers about the great work of Nelson Mandela to create my project I did a lot of research on the internet. I also used my own knowledge on what I already knew about him.
The theme is Leaders in Legacy. My project fits into this theme because Nelson Mandela was a leader. Not only was he a leader he left a legacy that nobody will ever forget. My project fits into this theme also because as leader he lead the people in South Africa to have freedom and more rights.
The historical importance is how now all of South Africa is free with all equal rights. My topic has changed history and life because now South Africa has rights just like the United States. It impacted history a lot. Nelson Mandela was a great man.
