| Description: |
This is a video clip of part one of the interview with Barbara Hogan conducted by Tymon Smith on 14.04.2007 at the Johannesburg Central Police Station (previously John Vorster Square) as part of the Sunday Times Heritage Project - a joint project between SAHA and the Sunday Times. Barbara Hogan joined the African National Congress (ANC) shortly after the 1976 uprisings. Her responsibilities in the ANC were to mobilise the white political left, participation in public political campaigning and supplying the ANC underground in Botswana with information about trade union and community activity in South Africa. Hogan was detained in 1981 for "furthering the aims of a banned organisation" and after being interrogated, ill-treated and held in solitary confinement for one year, was found guilty of high treason and sentenced to 10 years in jail. Part/s of this interview may have been included in "Between Life and Death: Stories from John Vorster Square" - a DVD produced as part of this project.
Included in SAHA online exhibition - 'Between Life and Death: Stories from John Vorster Square', 2012. |
