Nelson Mandela[edit]

The name of Nelson Mandela is missing in that list and he is the most significant Communist in South Africa! So it should be included. Sources:"At his arrest in August 1962, Nelson Mandela was not only a member of the then underground South African Communist Party, but was also a member of our Party’s Central Committee. To us as South African communists, Cde Mandela shall forever symbolise the monumental contribution of the SACP in our liberation struggle." http://www.sacp.org.za/main.php?ID=4154
