Reviews

“In this clear-eyed book Jacob Dlamini explores the roots of anti-apartheid passion, showing how activists made their commitment into a matter of life and death. At once sweeping and intimate, this profound work of history allows us to look again at martyrdom: as a political purpose that shaped people’s vocations, as an orientation around which a movement cohered, as a tragedy that deprived families and communities of much-loved people. This little book is full of profound insight, and I hope that it will lend to its readers a new understanding of how much the struggle against apartheid cost.” Derek Peterson, University of Michigan
