Join us for an intimate conversation with Thulani Mabaso, who will speak on his experiences in the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa and his imprisonment at Robben Island.  Mabaso was imprisoned in 1984 for sabotage and was a contemporary of Nelson Mandela, Patrick Chamusso, and other important figures jailed during the struggles against apartheid.  Originally from Vryheid in Kwa Zulu Natal, South Africa, Mabaso currently resides in the township of Khayaletsha in Cape Town, and tells his story on a regular basis as a tour guide at the Robben Island Prison Museum.

More information on our South African collections is available here.
