Nelson Mandela will be remembered for many things: fighting to end apartheid, spending 27 years in prison, and becoming the first black president of South Africa. When he passed away in December, the world lost a great leader and humanitarian.
In his 95 years, Mandela incited great change and was named a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. Before that, he was a young boy who enjoyed boxing and studied at the University College of Fort Hare.
