Joe Slovo was a South African politician, long-time leader of the South African Communist Party (SACP), and leading member of the African National Congress.

Both he and his first wife, Ruth First (who was assassinated by the apartheid security police in 1982) were “banned” or hounded by the government for much of their lives.

“He knew when to compromise. Yet he never compromised his principles. He was a militant. Yet a militant who knew how to plan, assess concrete situations and emerge with rational solutions to problems.” — Nelson Mandela
