(Non-Collaboration): Robert Sobukwe introduced the principle of "non-collaboration" for African people in a liberation struggle, and PanAfricanism and Black Consciousness used this in the struggle against Apartheid. First, explain what this principle means and why it is important in relation to overcoming certain forms of oppression. Second, why did "non-racialist" philosophies of Ubuntu and African Socialism disagree with this principle? Finally, do you agree with this principle? In other words, are there situations when exclusive practices for a particular group of people are morally good? If so, give a real example.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sobukwe was deeply concerned about the black Africans and their freedom fight. He and his followers were often accused of being anti-white and thereby racist. The principle of non-collaboration was that only the black Africans are the real freedom fighters and the whites cannot justify their position in liberation movement as many were the oppressors

The Ubuntu and African Socialism disagree with this principle as they believed that all were part of the liberation people and there is no concept of racism in Africa

Agree with principle.

Mr Gandhi launched an anti-government movement against the British rule in subcontinent as he belied that the rulers only serve their own people and not the people whose land they have occupied
