The late 1960s and early 1970s was an era of progressive student movements with a lot of radical political activities at the University of Dar es Salaam popularly known as ‘The Hill’. I met Karim Hirji during these turbulent times, together with my late husband Ramadhan Meghji, the likes of Nizar Visram, Ramji, Issa Shivji, Henry Mapolu, Ramesh Chauhan, late Nazir Virji, George Hadjivayanis who later married my sister Salha Hamdani and other progressive students who were seen by some as ‘revolutionary and progressive’ but to some as ‘notorious’.
