After he left Fort Hare University in 1941 • In 1944, He went to Johannesburg and start the African National Congress Youth League.( he soon was a leader) • Government saw him as a threat to their policy of apartheid. • In 1964, he was put in jail and that made him a less leader. (sentences to 27 years in prison). • “only free men can negotiate; prisoner cannot enter into contracts. Your freedom and mine cannot be separated.’’ (Nelson Mandela)
