Book excerpt: The sixteenth of June 2001 is the 25th anniversary of the Soweto youth uprising, an event commemorated in this book as ordinary people recollect their experiences of those fateful days in their own words. From interviews with 26 people who were enrolled at schools across Soweto in 1976, interspersed with extracts from the report of the Cillie Commission, the events are reconstructed, giving a nuanced and revealing picture of the time. For some of the interviewees, participating in this book was the first opportunity they ever had of talking about what happened and how it has affected their lives since. historical photographs enhance the text and create a visual flash-back to a time when police vans, uniforms, fashions, vehicles, houses and Soweto streets looked very different to today. A short authoritative introduction by a respected historian provides context. This book aims to look back at the Soweto uprising through the eyes of ordinary youngsters who experienced it themselves. It makes our sad history come alive, in a gripping reconstruction which cannot but leave one touched.

Download or read book The Soweto Uprising written by Noor Nieftagodien and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2014-12-08 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Soweto uprising was a true turning point in South Africa’s history. Even to contemporaries, it seemed to mark the beginning of the end of apartheid. This compelling book examines both the underlying causes and the immediate factors that led to this watershed event. It looks at the crucial roles of Black Consciousness ideology and nascent school-based organizations in shaping the character and form of the revolt. What began as a peaceful and coordinated demonstration rapidly turned into a violent protest when police opened fire on students. This short history explains the uprising and its aftermath from the perspective of its main participants, the youth, by drawing on a rich body of oral histories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s 1976 in South Africa. In the black township of Soweto, Zanele works as a nightclub singer and is plotting against the apartheid government. Her best friend Thabo, schoolboy turned gang member, has troubles of his own--a deal gone wrong and some powerful enemies. Across the bridge, in the wealthy white suburbs, Jack plans to spend his last days in Johannesburg burning miles on his beat-up Mustang--until he meets Zanele. Working in her father's shop, Meena finds a packet of banned pamphlets. A series of chance meetings sets off a chain of events--a failed plot, a murdered teacher, a forbidden love and a growing student movement that sweeps across the country like a blazing fire. When Morning Comes is a part of the Duckbill Not Our War series. The NOW series deals with children growing up in times of conflict--powerless, vulnerable, and yet, against all odds, brave and hopeful of a better future.

Download or read book Nostalgic Waves from Soweto written by Sol Rachilo and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2009 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Packed with more than 70 of Rachilo's cutting-edge poems mainly about events that unfolded before the world and the country in 1976 and 1977, this collection is like a journey into the past, which many of us would want to forget. Nostalgic Waves from Soweto is quirky, poignant, sardonic, haunting and sometimes just coldly observant. The volume contains striking images of a Soweto known only to those who lived, loved and suffered there. Rose Francis, director of African Perspectives Publishing, which is publishing the volume, believes it will be an invaluable addition to the growing body of literature on Soweto in the 1970s and its multi- facetted but often unknown life and characters. "His poetry is a prism reflecting the life, characters, thoughts and hopes of the time, sometimes from unexpected perspectives," she says. "It is bound to evoke nostalgia in those who knew the Soweto of those days and introduce newcomers to unknown dimensions of this famous, and infamous, township""--Sowetan.
