  2. Fun South African Fact: Vilakazi Street in Soweto has been home to two Nobel Peace Prize winners.

In 1984, Archbishop Desmond Tutu received the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition for his non-violent fight against the apartheid regime.

Nelson Mandela then went on to become South Africa’s first democratically elected president in 1994.
