		Huddleston's observations are especially important, since he arrived in South Africa as the ANC Youth League was forming and became a key ally to the anti-apartheid cause until his recall in 1956, by his monastic Superior.
		Additionally, Huddleston's recall from Sophiatown in 1956, his nervous breakdown in 1974 (fearful of public charges of child abuse), his agonizing over returning to South Africa, and the difficulties of his infirmity all exacerbated an already prickly temperament.
		As for the importance of Huddleston's contribution to the broader anti-apartheid movement through his work with AAM and IDAF, Denniston acknowledges that the onus is on future historians to research both AAM and IDAF further (p.

	HUDDLESTON, Trevor, South Africa/Tanganyika/Mauritius, Anglican
		Archbishop Trevor Huddleston, one of the founders of the antiapartheid movement, is a clergyman who served as a missionary in Tanganyika, Mauritius, and South Africa.
		In 1960, Huddleston was elected bishop of Masasi, Tanganyika, a rural diocese that was a totally new environment for him.
		Alan PATON described Huddleston as "one burning to serve the world," a prophetic critic of social evil, yet with "an absence of all prudery and censoriousness." Tall, spare, and frail, with a penetrating gaze, Huddleston comes across as intensely personal.

		Trevor was one of the great figures of the second half of the twentieth century.
		Trevor made Christianity relevant to a generation who (like all younger generations) were thinking it had lost its relevance.
		Trevor's friends loved him, even though he treated them badly on occasion when he was tired or ill. He was a most amusing companion and enjoyed talking about books, music, life, history and the wickedness of the English establishment, of which he was so much a part.

		After Huddleston asked the leader of the then Johannesburg "Native" Municipal Brass Band, Uncle Sauda to teach him the rudiments of trumpet playing, Hugh quickly proceeded to master the instrument after having been inspired by the film "Young man with a horn" in which Kirk Douglas portrayed the great American Jazz trumpeter, Bix Beiderbecke.
