This is a story written by Nelson Mandela and is mainly about the life of blacks in prison and the ways they are treated differently from other races. Their diet was different, their work was different, and the way they were treated was different. They had low quality meals and clothing, and they were forced to do the harder work without breaks. They were all treated in different ways according to their race. They wanted to make a change, but usually when they stood up for their rights they were severely punnished.
