Rewind: The spy who wanted to bring down apartheid Part 1
Sue Dobson was a white South African who risked her life as an ANC secret agent
Sue was a student when she was first recruited as a spy for the African National Congress liberation movement in the 1980s, and she knew that if she was caught she'd face prison, torture or death. Sue's mission would require her to infiltrate the pro-apartheid media establishment, but first she needed to learn spycraft and weapons handling. Her training would take place in Soviet Russia.
