He has been the Anglican Archbishop of South Africa for over 2 decades. He helped bring an end to apartheid, by bringing both sides together. He has also led the fight against AIDS and other progressive issues. He is a progressive voice within the Anglican Church in Africa at a time when most of the Anglican churches in Africa are head by extreme right-wing bishops. Because of his exemplary leadership in South Africa, the Anglicans there are the only church in all of Africa that shares much in common with the American, Canadian, and English Church. Desmond Tutu has also been recognized for winning the Nobel Peace Prize.
