This is a transcript of an interview with Wolfie Kodesh conducted by Julie Frederikse for her book 'The Unbreakable Thread: non-racialism in South Africa', published by Ravan Press, 1990. Wolfie Kodesh worked full-time for the Non-European Railway Workers Union. He was first banned in 1953, and in 1960 was one of the first to be jailed under the 90-day detention law. He accepted the government's offer of an exit permit and spent the next ten years in Lusaka and Luanda as head of the ANC's logistics unit, until ill health prompted him to go to London, where he worked in the ANC office.
