Robert Sobukwe (1924-1978)

Robert Sobukwe

Founded the Pan Africanist Congress (PAC). Sobukwe was considered to be so dangerous by the apartheid government and it enacted laws to keep Sobukwe imprisoned. Sobukwe supported an African future for South Africa for Africans only. He did not support any model that had black Africans working with anyone other than black Africans. He left the African National Congress (ANC) and founded the PAC because he didn’t believe in the ANC’s values of working with white people. When Sobukwe was imprisoned he was kept in solitary confinement which drove him crazy. He was released from jail in 1969 and was allowed to live with his family under house arrest until he died.
