South Africa: Sanef Statement On the Return of the Remains of Nat Nakasa

press release

The South African National Editors Forum is thrilled at the arrival tomorrow of the remains of Nat Nakasa back to his motherland, Africa.

Nat left on an exit permit to study journalism and improve himself at Harvard University in 1964. The apartheid regime refused to give him a passport and the exit permit did not allow for him to return when the Nieman Fellowship ended. He died tragically in 1965 at the age of 28.
