Henry Selby Msimang (1886-1982), one of the great South Africans of
the twentieth century, was a founding member of the African
National Congress in 1912, president of the pioneering Industrial
and Commercial Workers Union in the 1920s-1930s, general secretary
of the All African Convention in the 1930s, a member of the Natives
Representative Council and provincial secretary of the Natal ANC in
the 1940s and early 1950s, a prominent member of the Liberal Party
in the 1950s and 1960s, a founder and executive member of the
Inkatha Yenkululeko Yesizwe in the 1970s-and more. He was also a
prolific author, journalist, and public debater, and not least, a
man who was steady in his commitment to the struggle for freedom,
justice, and human rights. In this first comprehensive political
biography of Msimang, Sibongiseni Mkhize draws on a rich array of
unpublished sources to tell a multilayered story of pragmatism,
contradictions, and ideals. His book not only shines new light on
Msimang and his milieu, but also shows us the diversity among the
spectrum of political activists who were engaged in liberation
struggles.
