Festschrift: in honour of Enuga Sreenivasulu Reddy by Jairam Reddy and Selvan Naidoo

Besides his own activism, ES Reddy was a prolific scholar whose writing captured, among others, the historical influences of Indian passive resistance on our liberation struggle, and on democratic South Africa.

ES Reddy lobbied against apartheid on the world stage for over three decades and developed friendships with a number of leaders of the liberation Struggle, including OR Tambo and Dr Yusuf Dadoo.

He was an ardent admirer of former president Nelson Mandela and actively campaigned for his release from prison.

ES Reddy believed that speaking and acting against injustice was a normal duty and that we share a collective duty to strive towards a world free of oppression and discrimination; it is a struggle that continues today,

President Cyril Ramaphosa.
