When Nelson Mandela became South Africa's first Black president in 1994, Zelda la Grange was a 23-year-old Afrikaner typist raised to fear Black people. Born into apartheid privilege with a live-in Black domestic worker who wasn't allowed a bath, la Grange had voted against ending apartheid just two years earlier. Her father had warned her about Mandela's release from prison: "Now we're in trouble. The terrorist has been released." Like many white South Africans, her family stockpiled food before the 1994 election, expecting civil war and chaos. Yet within months, this same young woman would begin a remarkable journey of transformation, eventually becoming Mandela's most trusted assistant for nearly two decades. Their unlikely relationship-between a former apartheid supporter and the world's most famous political prisoner-became one of history's most powerful examples of reconciliation. Through intimate daily interactions, la Grange witnessed firsthand how Mandela's extraordinary capacity for forgiveness could transform not just a nation, but individual hearts-including her own.
