May 1959 - Political Tough-Talker - Robert Mangaliso
May 1959 - Political Tough-Talker - Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe, new Africanist leader. Young, intellectual, uncompromising, he has risen above the heads of the veterans to become leader of the Pan-Africanist Congress, the voice of South Africa's bristling, black nationalism. The name Mangaliso means wonderful'. After the split with the African National Congress he organised on behalf of the Africanists. Then all of a sudden, he was catapulted into the headlines with his election as the first president of the new Pan-Africanist Congress whose cry is Africa for the Africans.
