Joseph Garang (died 28 July 1971) was a southern Sudanese politician in the 1960s. He was a member of the Sudanese Communist Party, and served as Minister of Southern Affairs in the Sudanese Government.

In July 1971, Garang and several others were executed after being convicted as conspirators in the short-lived coup that toppled the regime of President Gaafar Nimeiry.[1]
