The Chris Hani Memorandum & Morogoro Conference
Today's episode focuses on the historic Chris Hani Memo and the watershed conference that adopted the first Strategy and Tactics of the ANC: Morogoro Conference.
This is the first time AN officially adopted NDR as its theory of struggle.
We ask: What gave rise to the Memo? What did it contain?
How did it affect the ANC? Did its contents end up in Morogoro Conference Resolutions? Was the Strategy & Tactics a Communist capture of the ANC? And what happened to the central figures who wrote & influenced the memo?
Looking at these questions, we hold a round table discussion with veterans Mavuso Msimang and Ronnie Kasrils.
