(Balthazar Johannes) Vorster, Joe Slovo, Ruth First, Oliver Tambo, Walter Sisulu, Albertina Sisulu, Chief Albert Luthulli, Steven Biko, Kalushi Drake Koda, Desmond Tutu etc. It includes images and information from various websites including Encyclopaedia Britannica and South African History Online.
