Book excerpt: These are Dr. John Garang's speeches during the war of liberation, starting from the inception of the SPLM/A in July 1983 to January 2005 when the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) was signed in 2005 to end the long running civil war in the Sudan. The 2005 CPA guaranteed the rights of South Sudanese to self-determination in a free and fair referendum, leading to the independence of South Sudan on July 9th, 2011, after more than 50 years of continuous war since 1955. These speeches are a living testimony to the long aspiration of the South Sudanese people as thought out, expressed and spoken by the late leader of the SPLM/A, Dr. John Garang de Mabioor, who passed away in a mysterious plane crash in July 2005, three weeks after becoming the first vice president of the Sudan in Khartoum, the first Southerner to assume that office since Sudan independence in 1956.
