Answer :

Final answer:

Nelson Mandela's presidency marked the end of apartheid in South Africa, a system of racial segregation, due to the divestment movement pressure.


Explanation:

Nelson Mandela became the first Black president of South Africa in 1994, marking the end of apartheid and the beginning of a transition to a multiracial society. His presidency ended in 1999, setting the stage for significant changes in the country.

Apartheid was a system of racial segregation that separated the black majority from the white rulers in South Africa, depriving them of political and civil rights. Nelson Mandela's election brought an end to this discriminatory system.

The divestment movement played a crucial role in ending apartheid by pressuring South Africa economically and influencing reforms in the country, ultimately leading to Mandela's presidency and the dismantling of apartheid.
