Timeline

1948

Rubin Phillip (born c. 1948) is bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Natal.

The great-grandchild of indentured labourers from Andhra Pradesh, Phillip is the first person of Indian heritage in South Africa to hold the position of Bishop of Natal.

He grew up in Clairwood, a suburb of Durban with a large concentration of people of Indian descent, in a non-religious household, but converted to Christianity.

1970

He was a noted anti-apartheid activist and spent three years under house arrest in the 1970s and was banned in 1973.

1972

Phillip was involved in the Black Consciousness Movement, was a close friend to Steve Biko and was the Deputy President of the South African Students' Organisation in 1972 when Steve Biko was President.

1973

He was banned - legally excluded from public life - in 1973.

2000

He was enthroned as bishop in February 2000.

He continues to take political positions and remains connected to grassroots struggles.

2008

In 2008, Phillip, working with the dockworkers' union, successfully obtained a court order preventing arms shipments destined for Zimbabwe from being transported through South Africa.

He is chair of the Zimbabwe Solidarity Forum in South Africa.

Phillip has been, and remains, a strong supporter of the shack dwellers' movement Abahlali baseMjondolo.

He has attended meetings, memorials, mass ecumenical prayers, marches and UnFreedom Day rallied hosted by Abahlali baseMjondolo and supported the organisation's successful battle to have the KZN Slums Act declared unconstitutional.

2009

In September 2009, he condemned the violent expulsion of Abahlali baseMjondolo from the Kennedy Road informal settlement blaming political interference and stating that "this militia has acted with the support of the local ANC structures".

He supported the movement through the case that followed the attack.

In 2009 Phillip was given the Bremen International Peace award on the grounds of his work in the struggle against apartheid and his ongoing work "to offer solidarity to the displaced people, victims of persecutions and detainees".

2010

He was critical of the 2010 Football World Cup saying that: "If we can successfully host a massive event like the World Cup, spending billions, then why can't we provide water, electricity and housing for a handful of shack dwellers?"

In August 2010 Phillip was given the Diakonia award in recognition of "his involvement with the anti apartheid movement as far back as the 1960s, through his advocacy and involvement in the Zimbabwe crisis to his solidarity with the shack dwellers movement, Abahlali baseMjondolo."

He dedicated the award to "shack dwellers, especially those from Kennedy Road and all those who have stood in solidarity with them."

2012

Phillip was very critical of the police massacre of striking mine workers at Marikana in 2012.

At the time he declared that "And so again, the truth of our country is in dead black bodies littering the ground. The truth of our time is that people asserting their rights and dignity have been brought down in a hail of bullets."

He has taken a strong stand against gender based violence.

2013

In 2013 he expressed solidarity with Abahlali baseMjondolo after the movement was subject to assassinations, a police killing, shootings and arrests.
