It has been 46 years since the tragic death of the Black Consciousness Movement leader, Steve Biko. One of the most prominent leaders in the anti-apartheid struggle, he died in police detention on September 12, 1977, and had been imprisoned on charges of terrorism. The South African Minister of Police announced that he died after a seven-day hunger strike. Riots ensued in the aftermath of this statement, and a few students were killed in the protests. Fifteen thousand people showed up to Biko’s funeral, including foreign dignitaries, African diplomats, and about 13 Western diplomats. The governments of Ghana and Lesotho released official statements of outrage. The South African police had underestimated the potential consequences of his death, and a global movement emerged, demanding justice for Biko. Former Robben Island prisoner, ex-president of Azapo and member of the Azanian Veterans League Dr Mosibudi Mangena joins Lerato Mbele for the conversation.
