THERE are some people you meet in life who leave a lasting impression - not because of their fame, but because of the spirit they carry.

- DR IQBAL SURVÉ

Louis Moholo and his wife Mpumi were such people.

Gentle, principled, and full of life, they were more than musical legends. They were fellow South Africans in exile, friends of the Struggle, and vessels of a sound that carried our country's deepest hopes and truths.

In January 1989, Amnesty International invited me to deliver one of the keynote addresses at a global conference of Doctors Against Torture, held at UNESCO in Paris. This was in recognition of the work I was doing at the time with detainees and political prisoners in South Africa.
