Summary

The conclusion begins by sketching some key events in the Southern African Liberation Struggle, namely, the battle of Quito Cuanavale and the release of Nelson Mandela from prison. It then proceeds to discuss some of the implications of the latter through brief political biographies on Chris Hani and Winnie Madikizela-Mandela. After this engagement, a broad summary of the Black Consciousness Movement and its armed wing takes place followed by an examination of the broader implications of this work to the study of the African Liberation Movements. The conclusion closes by taking a brief look at contemporary South African politics and political activism and closes with a call for unity across the Black International.
