Looking back over a long and distinguished career, John Dugard describes the work he undertook in defence of human rights by opposing the system of apartheid in South West Africa/Namibia and South Africa and more recently in occupied Palestine, which enforces a system that closely mirrors apartheid in South Africa. He shows how law was used by progressive lawyers in Namibia and South Africa to strike at the heart of apartheid. The entrenchment of a system of discrimination and oppression in occupied Palestine is carefully examined in the context of apartheid, but he ends on a note of hope that the international community, acting through civil society and the institutions of international law, will ensure that a just solution is found to this seemingly intractable problem.

For Donald Tsolo Phae to most it was infuriating to be young and black in apartheid South Africa. Early on, Phae's father instilled the belief that South Africa's survival rested on the next generation's shoulders. With education, Phae and his cohorts could advance black equality. Believing oppression and suffering would stop, though, was optimistic. When Phae's friend Nyakane is beaten by Afrikaner police for rescuing a drowning white boy and administering CPR, Phae and his friends are fundamentally altered. Goal-directed discussions replace informal conversations. Meetings become organized and planned. Talks on incendiary bombs, firearms, and the black struggle for freedom overtake their light-hearted banter. Remedying apartheid in the early 1950s was unlikely, however. Phae thus committed himself to the anti-apartheid weapon with the highest likelihood of success education. Making his way to Pius XII University College, he is elected chairman of the local branch of the outlawed Pan African Congress. American politicians working in-country quickly take note, and Phae's future spirals toward activism. With cultural, historical, and political context, The Promise is an in-depth portrait of the barbarism fathered by apartheid and how both Phae and some good-hearted, God-fearing Americans devoted their lives to a democratic, non-racial South Africa.

THE SOUNDS OF SOUTH AFRICA-Confronting the end of Apartheid and the beginning of AIDS covers the years 1988 to 1992, when the country is in uncertain transition out of Apartheid and the author also personally experiences the AIDS crisis. Flashbacks reveal incidents in previous years, when Pieter becomes the author's life partner. The story includes Pieter's spiritual growth and its influence on the author. During his first visit to Pieter from New York in 1980, the author hopes to hear the sounds of African animals and birds. Later, other sounds occur. Gunfire erupts from the street below their apartment. In 1988, Pieter tests positive for HIV. They expect him to live several years and be saved by new drugs. Pieter is well, and he continues his job with South African Airways as Chief Steward. The author's contacts from New York in theatrical work result in interesting contracts. They are optimistic and deny a tragic future. They return to the author's apartment in New York for Christmas. Violence increases in South Africa. With the economy failing, they experience financial difficulties. The author goes back to work in New York for two months and learns more about the AIDS crisis. Pieter becomes seriously ill, but he survives. He is determined to continue working, although the airline refuses to let him fly and demotes him to an office job, with reduced salary. His case is the first to overturn that ruling. His full salary is restored. In 1990, the political situation gets worse. Nelson Mandela is released from prison. Violence escalates. Pieter experiences a bombing at the airport, and a car bomb explodes near the author's theatre. Their future is uncertain. Pieter becomes weaker. Three contracts give the author some financial stability. The contracts are completed and he devotes his time to caring for Pieter at home, which they both desire. With no assistance from Pieter's family, the author hires an aide to help him until Pieter's death. A final contract, friends, and a therapist help him cope. Pieter's estate, sale of the apartment and official documents are difficult because government offices are in chaos. Finally, the move back to New York City is completed, and the author is with good friends and in his apartment with their two cats from South Africa.

Challenging the stereotype that black people who lived under South African apartheid have no happy memories of the past, this examination into nostalgia carves out a path away from the archetypical musings. Even though apartheid itself had no virtue, the author, himself a young black man who spent his childhood under apartheid, insists that it was not a vast moral desert in the lives of those living in townships. In this deep meditation on the experiences of those who lived through apartheid, it points out that despite the poverty and crime, there was still art, literature, music, and morals that, when combined, determined the shape of black life during that era of repression.

Joe Garbas Legacy Selected Speeches and Lectures On National Governance, Confronting Apartheid and Foreign Policy Joseph Nanven Garba came to international attention in July 1975, as a member of Supreme Military Council in Nigerias new military government. Then a Colonel, the commander of the Brigade of Guards and a distinguished career officer, fate, which some call luck, thrust upon him the role of Commissioner (Minister) for External Affairs, after initially being slotted for the Transport portfolio. A diplomatic neophyte, Garba, who characterized himself as the most undiplomatic soldier there was, would learn the finer points and also the caprices of international diplomacy on the job. He did well, serving as Nigerias foreign minister, from 1975-1978 and consequently holding key diplomatic, academic and political positions - all which offered him the unfettered pulpit to speak assertively on national and international issues within his remit. When Garba spoke, people listened; for he was eloquent, had the personality and did not dodge heady issues. He had gone from an unknown quantity, whose appointment as Foreign Minister, had elicited from the Nigerian intelligentsia the terse reaction, Garba Who? to become a skillful and renowned diplomat and an assured voice of Nigeria. The thirty-two speeches and lectures in this volume represent just a fraction of the many he delivered. They are presented in remembrance and as a befitting legacy on the tenth anniversary of his passing.
