<br/><br/> Umkhonto weSizwe, Spear of the Nation, was arguably the last of the great liberation armies of the twentieth century--but it never got to "march triumphant into Pretoria." MK--as it was known--was the armed wing of the African National Congress, South Africa's liberation movement, that challenged the South African apartheid government.
