Abstract

Yossel Mashel "Joe" Slovo was among the most renowned leaders of the struggle against apartheid. A lifelong socialist and internationalist, he is widely credited with being one of the masterminds of South Africa's national reconciliation. He was described by close friend Nelson Mandela as a "Great African Patriot".
