Letter from Larry and Michele to Phyllis Naidoo

Perhaps the only sad thing related to our somewhat unexpected departure is not seeing you before leaving. Your warmth, strength and great heart are so very scarce in our world.

Letter from Kristina Wickstrom to Phyllis Naidoo

About five years ago a man in R.S.A., Samson John Nene, was adopted by my group of _Amnesty International as a "prisoner of conscience". He was "banned" and had earlier spent ten years on Robben Island. He was arrested again in November 1975, alleged to be a member or supporter of ANC.

Letter from Kathy to Phyllis Naidoo

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and wonderful description of the wonderful 19 July event. It was such a wonderful description that I felt like we were right there! I just appreciate so much the time and effort that you took to give me your unique account of the happenings.

From the hospital, where I have been since 4/5/80. I become very emotional when I receive letters from loved ones and your loving letters of the 12thhas shattered me more than you realise. 

The Indian in South Africa - Pamphlet Collection

The first important fact is that only in recent times has the Indian community come to be regarded as a permanent part of the population of the Union. Prior to 1927 the Indian in South Africa was looked upon as an alien a sojourner in the land, and not destined to remain there.

How are you and all your friends? We hope that the injuries you received when you when you received the parcel bomb are healing and hope your eardrum is now better. We are enclosing a tea towel from a tiny seaside village in Norfolk.

I really would have come, but Ashika was coming so my mummy said Ashika just couldn’t stay all by herself. So I had to stay. I really do miss you so much. My passport expires next year I think.

Letter from John to Phyllis Naidoo

Greetings from Maputo! There has been much confusion here. The meeting starts on the 25th and Mathabata was asked to give me a message to that effect. It’s a pity he didn’t give you a message to pass on, as I can’t easily be away for 2 weeks with so much to do back home.

Letter from Jeannie to Phyllis Naidoo

Letter from Jean to Phyllis Naidoo

Letter from Huth to Phyllis Naidoo

We didn’t know either of his plans at that time. What people have to go through for freedom.  Phyllis it bothered me very much your view on Hungary. What does it all mean (cinemas, libraries, hospitals etc.), if the intellect of the country cannot speak out what they want. 

 

Letter from Jane to Phyllis Naidoo

Many thanks for your letter. Yes, I’d seen the papers and was so pleased for your brother and all the family. I haven't visited your Mother again but hope to do so before I leave.
