external chapter of the ANC from 195 8-91 and brought about the atrocities of the apartheid
regime into the attention of the international community.
"It is our responsibility to break down barriers of division and create a country where there will
be neither Whites nor Blacks, just South Africans, free and united in diversity."
He initiated campaigns for its diplomatic, cultural and economic isolation. He built the ANC
into a formidable mass liberation movement, regional anti-colonial resistance army, international
anti- apartheid movement and a highly sought after diplomatic political negotiating team.
