Herbert Chitepo

Herbert Wiltshire Pfumaindini Chitepo (15 June 1923 – 18 March 1975) was a Zimbabwean lawyer, politician, and nationalist leader who led the Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU) until his assassination in 1975. Although his assailant remains unidentified, the Rhodesian author Peter Stiff says that a former soldier of the British Special Air Service (SAS), Hugh Hind, was responsible. Chitepo was the first black citizen of Rhodesia to become a barrister.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Chitepo Quotes I could go into the whole theories of discrimination in legislation, in residency, in economic opportunities, in education.
