About the Book

Beyond Fear is a riveting testimony to the resilience of the human spirit - the incredible story of what one young revolutionary was prepared to give up over many decades to bring down the apartheid state.

Ebrahim Ebrahim was one of the only struggle stalwarts to be sentenced twice to Robben Island. He arrived on the island months before Nelson Mandela in 1964, after being accused number one in the Pietermaritzburg sabotage trial which was dubbed the 'little Rivonia trial'.

He showed exceptional bravery from a young age as one of the founding members of Umkhonto we Sizwe in Natal, and played a key role in directing the sabotage campaign that brought down electricity pylons, disrupted rail transport and shook the apartheid regime to its core.

Over 15 years he played a leadership role on Robben Island as one of the cadres who headed the ANC's disciplinary committee, helping to turn the island into a university of revolutionary ideology.

He was also one of the first five prisoners who enrolled in 1965 to do a university degree with Mandela and Ahmed Kathrada.

After his release in 1979 he operated in the trenches of struggle, providing leadership to the ANC's underground structures in Natal while living under heavily restrictive banning orders. Overnight he disappeared into exile in 1980 on the instructions of Oliver Tambo after an apartheid spy exposed him and he was about to be arrested.

The ANC leadership in Lusaka sent him to a sanitorium in the Crimea for his first ever holiday before deploying him for a six-month express military training course in the MK training camps in the dense bush of Angola.

He was then deployed to Swaziland, the most dangerous of the frontline states for ANC operatives, as the head of the ANC's political military committee. His life was under constant threat as operatives were being assassinated by Eugene de Kock's CCB. He was forced to live in different underground houses every six months until the ANC leadership decided to infiltrate him as the most senior ANC leader into South Africa in 1985, to report on the state of resistance on the ground.
