Zindzi Mandela
Nelson Mandela’s youngest daughter, Zindzi (from his marriage to Winnie) was also an activist against apartheid and started when she was a teenager while her father was imprisoned. Watching her mother get dragged off to jail, Zindzi, at the age of 12, wrote a letter to the United Nations Special Committee Against Apartheid, seeking better security and conditions for her mother, and would often release statements for her father to the press while he was also imprisoned. Now 53, Zindzi is a familiar face out of Nelson Mandela’s many children, and was most recently seen helping to promote the film Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom.
