JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (AP) - Hilda Bernstein, an anti-apartheid activist and author whose husband was tried for treason alongside Nelson Mandela, has died. She was 91.
Bernstein died of heart failure at her home in Cape Town on Friday night, her son Keith said.
"The liberation movement mourns a tireless political activist whose lifelong commitment to the cause of the South African people will continue as an inspiration for generations to come," the ruling African National Congress said in a statement.
