A medical doctor and anthropologist by training, she first rose to prominence as a student, when she was a vocal member of the Black Consciousness Movement and associate of Steve Biko. She served as Deputy Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Town and as a Director at the World Bank in Washington DC before returning to South Africa as Director of Corp Capital. She started Letsema Circle, a community development initiative, and then the Citizen's Movement, before finally entering politics. Her Agang South Africa party was launched in 2013 and she continues to have a high profile as one of the most steadfastly independent and critical voices."--Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Ramphele, Mamphela. 650 0 $a Stateswomen $z South Africa $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women civil rights workers $z South Africa $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women college administrators $z South Africa $v Biography. 650 0 $a Blacks $z South Africa $x Politics and government. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826103236.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1CE068006B5611E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
