This lecture will certainly check out– and commemorate– the job of attorneys that have actually gone across the normal lines and helped political adjustment. It will take a look at the life of South African supporter Bram Fischer, that safeguarded Nelson Mandela at the Rivonia trial, as well as was himself prosecuted for sabotage and punished to life behind bars.
