From the news article:
South African poet and writer Ismail Joubert (1902–2002) went by many legal names. There was his birth name, Mogamed Fu’ad Nasif, given by his Egyptian father and Turkish mother; his adoptive “Methodist” name, John Charlton; foster name Jozua Joubert (before he converted to Islam and took the name Ismail) and the one uMkhonto we Sizwe gave him: Tatamkhulu Afrika. It was the name he loved most.
