Sequel to Long Walk to Freedom - Revision 6 - Chapter 1 Page 6

That almost every country in the world in due course shunned South Africa, and apartheid condemned as a crime against humanity, was a measure of the success of their historic campaign. Those who lived in exile criss-crossed the five continents to brief heads of state and governments on our situation, attending world and regional gatherings, flooding the world with material that exposed the inhumanity of apartheid. It was this worldwide campaign, which made the ANC and its leaders inside and outside the country, one of the most well known liberation movements of the world. The fighters of Umkhonto we Sizwe (M.K.) displayed exceptional courage and infiltrated the country, attacked government installations, clashed now and again with the apartheid forces, and in several engagements put them to flight. Other freedom fighters worked inside the country either above or underground, urging the masses to rise and resist all forms of oppression and exploitation.
