Excerpt from Road From Sharpeville The south african scene, with its multiplicity of problems, is so heavily charged with emotion that it is not easy to bring to it that analytical calm which alone can help us emerge from the jungle of controversy, hate and fear. I am entirely opposed to the doctrine of extreme Afrikanerdom, of which Dr Verwoerd is the outstanding exponent; and I believe that, if unchecked, this doctrine will bring ruin to South Africa. Yet I am not prepared to concede that South Africa is a land where nature has deposited evil the way it has lodged the gold ore here. Though our situation is tragic, though evil stalks our land, it is still necessary to try to estimate those forces, historical, social and economic, which have brought about this state of affairs. To modify Burke's famous adage, a whole nation cannot lightly be indicted. And I shall adduce all the extenuating evidence, in an effort to draw a picture that is whole and rounded.

For years, it has been what is called a 'deteriorating situation'. Now all over South Africa the cities are battlegrounds. The members of the Smales family - liberal whites - are rescued from the terror by their servant, July, who leads them to refuge in his native village. What happens to the Smaleses and to July - the shifts in character and relationships - gives us an unforgettable look into the terrifying, tacit understandings and misunderstandings between blacks and whites.

Musical Echoes tells the life story of the South African jazz vocalist Sathima Bea Benjamin. Born in Cape Town in the 1930s, Benjamin came to know American jazz and popular music through the radio, movies, records, and live stage and dance band performances. She was especially moved by the voice of Billie Holiday. In 1962 she and Dollar Brand (Abdullah Ibrahim) left South Africa together for Europe, where they met and recorded with Duke Ellington. Benjamin and Ibrahim spent their lives on the move between Europe, the United States, and South Africa until 1977, when they left Africa for New York City and declared their support for the African National Congress. In New York, Benjamin established her own record company and recorded her music independently from Ibrahim. Musical Echoes reflects twenty years of archival research and conversation between this extraordinary jazz singer and the South African musicologist Carol Ann Muller. The narrative of Benjamin’s life and times is interspersed with Muller’s reflections on the vocalist’s story and its implications for jazz history.

The impact of colonial dispossession and the subsequent social and political ramifications places a unique burden on governments having to establish equitable means of addressing previous injustices. This book considers the efforts by both Canada and South Africa to reconcile the damage left by colonial expansion, in part, looking back with a critical eye, but also pointing the way towards a solution that will satisfy the common need for human dignity

When Emma Brockes was ten years old, her mother said 'One day I will tell you the story of my life and you will be amazed.' Growing up in a tranquil English village, Emma knew very little of her mother's life before her. She knew Paula had grown up in South Africa and had seven siblings. She had been told stories about deadly snakes and hailstones the size of golf balls. There was mention, once, of a trial. But most of the past was a mystery. When her mother dies of cancer, Emma - by then a successful journalist at the Guardian - is free to investigate the untold story. Her search begins in the Colindale library but then takes her to South Africa, to the extended family she has never met and their accounts of a childhood so different to her own.She encounters versions of the life her mother chose to leave behind - and realises what a gift her mother gave her. Part investigation, part travelogue, part elegy, She Left Me the Gun is a gripping, funny and clear-eyed account of a writer's search for her mother's story.

The new South Africa has established the Truth and Reconciliation Commission as a mechanism to ensure a collective coming to grips with the apartheid system. The South African transition, while widely billed as a miracle, has not yet received the same systematic treatment as political transitions elsewhere. This book, written by active participants in the new democracy and in the anti-apartheid movement that preceded it, presents for the first time the new country's view of its old self. It supplies a valuable road map of the key issues and debates of the transition.
