Description

Concentrating on parts of the exile history of the African National Congress (ANC) and the South West Africa People's Organization (SWAPO) that both organizations would prefer to forget, these first-hand accounts describe the human rights abuses in Quatro prison camp that led to the mutiny in Umkhonto weSizwe (MK) in Angola in 1984. The articles cover the SWAPO "spy drama" of the 1970s and 1980s; a death with possible ties to Jacob Zuma; and the responses of both the ANC and SWAPO to episodes of intolerance, repression, and excess.
