520    Dennis Brutus was a poet and human rights activist whose 
       works centered on his sufferings and those of Black South 
       Africans. For fourteen years, Dennis taught English and 
       Afrikaans in South Africa. As the white minority 
       government increased restrictions on the black population,
       he became involved in a series of anti-apartheid related 
       activities, including efforts to end discrimination in 
       sports. The government subsequently banned him from 
       teaching, writing, publishing, attending social or 
       political meetings, and pursuing his studies. In 1963, his
       refusal to abide by the ban resulted in eighteen months of
       hard labor on Robben Island, alongside Nelson Mandela. 
       Forbidden to write or publish after his release, Brutus 
       left South Africa in 1966 for England and then the United 
       States, and is now recognized as one of the prominent 
       voices in the anti-apartheid movement. -- Amazon.
