Andrew Mlangeni (1925-2020)
Legendary South African anti-apartheid activist and the last surviving Rivonia trialist. Born in 1925, he joined the armed wing Umkhonto we Sizwe (“Spear of the Nation”) in 1963 after military training in China, becoming part of its high command. Arrested during the Rivonia raid alongside Nelson Mandela and other leaders, he was sentenced to life imprisonment and spent 26 years on Robben Island as prisoner number 467/64, in the cell next to Mandela (466/64). He defined himself as a “backroom boy,” a modest and self-effacing figure who worked tirelessly behind the scenes. After his release, he served as a member of parliament, president of the ANC’s integrity commission, and founder of the June and Andrew Mlangeni Foundation. Archbishop Desmond Tutu described him as “the last monument of a brave generation of South Africans who gave up their freedom, their careers, their family life and their health so that we could all be free.” His death in July 2020 at age 95 marked the end of an era in South Africa’s liberation history.[citation:3]
