Steve Biko: The Legacy of a Political Hero

The great Steve Biko: He sacrificed his life to make what South Africa is today.

The great Steve Biko: He sacrificed his life to make what South Africa is today.
 

In the political history of South Africa, many are those who fought against the evil apartheid, oppression, mass arrests, detention without trial, etc. 


Along the line with Nelson Mandela, Oliver Tambo, Chief Buthelezi, etc, in the struggle to emancipate blacks from hardships was Steve Bantu Biko, who died in detention before he could see the fall of apartheid years ago in South Africa.


Although Steve Biko is gone, his great achievement and his part in the struggle to free South Africa, under the previous white minority rule, will always be remembered.
