Nelson Mandela & Africa
Ché Guevara, Amilcar Cabral, Agostinho Neto and Samora Machel. These are just some of the well-known freedom fighters with whom Nelson Mandela secretly trained in 1962 in northern Africa. There, they learnt the art of guerrilla warfare to liberate their countries. When Mandela was released from jail about 30 years later, he first revisited the continent to thank his African allies for their support and solidarity. Miranda Strydom and Angie Kapelianis compiled this feature on Mandela and Africa. Credits: Miranda Strydom, Angie Kapelianis, Habs Habedi, Danny Booysen and the SABC Media Library © SABC 2020.
