In an excellent addition to the Ohio Short Histories of Africa
series, Robert Trent Vinson recovers the important but largely
forgotten story of Albert Luthuli, Africa's first Nobel Peace Prize
winner and president of the African National Congress from 1952 to
1967. One of the most respected African leaders, Luthuli linked
South African antiapartheid politics with other movements, becoming
South Africa's leading advocate of Mahatma Gandhi's nonviolent
civil disobedience techniques. He also framed apartheid as a crime
against humanity and thus linked South African antiapartheid
struggles with international human rights campaigns. Unlike
previous studies, this book places Luthuli and the South African
antiapartheid struggle in new global contexts, and aspects of
Luthuli's leadership that were not previously publicly known:
Vinson is the first to use new archival evidence, numerous oral
interviews, and personal memoirs to reveal that Luthuli privately
supported sabotage as an additional strategy to end apartheid. This
multifaceted portrait will be indispensable to students of African
history and politics and nonviolence movements worldwide.
