President Bok sent a letter of protest to the South African ambassador following the arrest of Percy P. Qoboza, a former Nieman Fellow and editor of The World, South Africa's largest black-language newspaper until it was banned last year. Bok called Qoboza's incarceration, which was part of a crackdown on black activists within that country, "a travesty of justice under normal civilized conditions;" he did not, however, recommend that the Corporation take any action to back up what he said was only a personal protest. "It's a very complex issue," Bok explained.
