South African black nationalist leader.
Sobukwe insisted that South Africa be returned to its indigenous inhabitants ("Africa for the Africans"). Charging the
African National Congress with being contaminated by non-African influences, he founded the Pan-Africanist Congress in 1959 and became a leader in the
Pan-African movement. Arrested in 1960, he spent the rest of his life in prison or under house arrest.
