About this episode
From November 27, 2000: In what she considers an interview of a lifetime, Oprah talks with philanthropist, revolutionist and former president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela. In this memorable Oprah Showinterview, Nelson Mandela opens up about his struggles, including the 27 years he spent in prison and the impact that had on his family. He also explains what he believes it takes to be a peacemaker, and why he believes humility is one of the most important qualities to have. Then, celebrities and public figures including Denzel Washington, Stevie Wonder, Sarah Ferguson and Bill Gates share how the great leader influenced their lives. (Nelson Mandela passed away in 2013 at the age of 95 from a prolonged respiratory infection.)
