Abstract

This paper describes Lungisile Ntsebeza’s initial commitment and difficult path to academia: a commitment that began when he and his comrades were facing trial in the Transkei under the Suppression of Communism Act, and continued during his four-year term in prison and the years of banishment and persecution that followed. His academic career was made possible by standing up to and exposing the apartheid death squads that killed his cousin Batandwa Ndondo in 1985. The same commitment to human liberation characterised his celebrated academic career.
