A tribute to Peter Sexford Magubane, the courageous photographer who chronicled South Africa's struggle for freedom from apartheid and who died this week.
Magubane’s images of Sharpeville were published in Life magazine and played a key role in bringing the brutality of the apartheid state to global notice.
