Justice Albie Sachs, who helped draft the Constitution, wrote of his friend Feni: β€œThe reason why we have a Constitution today is because we have the spirit of ubuntu, which was never destroyed, despite all the humiliation, hardships and injustice. Jazz musicians and Dumile captured this in their work before we even put it in the Constitution.”
