In 2004, at the age of 19, Thembi Ngubane was given a tape recorder
to keep an audio diary of her life with AIDS. Over the course of a
year, Thembi recorded more than 50 hours of tape, which was edited
into a half-hour documentary for broadcast on NPR's All Things
Considered. Since that time, Thembi's story has reached millions of
listeners around the world.

Mandela: An Audio History
This five-part radio series documents the struggle against apartheid through rare sound recordings, the voice of Nelson Mandela himself, as well as those who fought with him, and against him.
The series weaves together an unprecedented collection of archival sound: a recording of the 1964 trial that resulted in Mandela's life sentence; a visit between Mandela and his family secretly taped by a prison guard; marching songs of guerilla soldiers; government propaganda films; and pirate radio broadcasts from the African National Conference (ANC).
The CD is hosted by Desmond Tutu with an introduction by Nelson Mandela.
