Even underground activists, during my high school days, the instructions that I got was more political instructions.  I was one of the people who was instrumental in the formation of the then Congress of South African Students which was launched in 1979.  By then we took a resolution that we had to form the youth structures so that those who dropped out of school or finished their matrics and could not proceed with their studies to varsity and so forth, can continue their political activity in the townships so that we were trying to close the gap that your active political life should not end at the school level, it should continue even after you had finished your school.  That was the main reason why we then decided to form the youth congresses in the townships throughout the country.
