Education:

I matriculated in South Africa with distinctions in Maths, Physics and English. After 1 year of university I was conscripted into the apartheid army from where I deserted, testified to the United Nations on its atrocities, and joined the African National Congress. Due to my full time political commitments I was not able to continue my studies. I have spent my entire career in intellectually demanding positions of post-graduate equivalence.
