Book Synopsis From Exile to Exile by : Edmund Mxolisi Mankazana
Download or read book From Exile to Exile written by Edmund Mxolisi Mankazana and published by . This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An autobiography of a South African Black, this book tells of the life of a political activist, driven into exile, back to his homeland, and to return into exile again. It explores his formative experiences, and the traumatic impact of apartheid on a life. Yet, the phoenix rose from the ashes! Through the narrative, one follows his flight into exile, and its implications on his professional and family life. Still, he yearned to be involved in rebuiliding a nation oppressed for centuries. His story describes his homecoming to South Africa, post-apartheid, and his extensive work in Public Health through the Health Development Institute - a ground-breaking, multi-disciplinary venture that reached out to the "have-not"s. Born poor and schooled by missionaries, Mxolisi encountered interrogation by the South African Security Forces as a schoolboy. The hounding followed him through university, medical school and private practice, culminating in flight into exile when assassination was imminent. His return "home" was fruitful, but opened his eyes to unanticipated political hurdles and disappointment: Were his beloved people free in name only? This is a tale of one forced to flee, yet again: his journey "From Exile to Exile".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autobiography of an Unknown Man traces the author's life from his birth, childhood in England and Namibia, years at boarding school and university, his early successes, family life, two disastrous marriages, the success of his company created and developed in Namibia during the South West African Border War with Angola, the company's move to South Africa and its collapse after President P.W. Botha's 1985 "Rubicon" speech that nearly brought South Africa to its knees. The company's takeover by IGI Ltd., and IGI's decision to abandon the construction industry in 1990 and Chris's decision to leave South Africa for Hong Kong in search of a new beginning are all covered. The book traces the author's life working in the Far East, South East Asia and the Middle East and culminates in his retirement to Hua Hin in Thailand.

Book Synopsis A Life's Mosaic by : Phyllis Ntantala
Download or read book A Life's Mosaic written by Phyllis Ntantala and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Like Trotsky, I did not leave home with the proverbial one-and-six in my pocket. I come from a family of landed gentry . . . [and] could have chosen the path of comfort and safety, for even in apartheid South Africa, there is still that path for those who will collaborate. But I chose the path of struggle and uncertainty."--from the Preface Born into the small social elite of black South Africa, Phyllis Ntantala did not face the grinding poverty so familiar to other South African blacks. Instead, her struggle was that of a creative, articulate woman seeking fulfillment and justice in a land that tried to deny her both. The widow of Xhosa writer and historian A.C. Jordan and mother of African National Congress leader Z. Pallo Jordan, she and her family experienced a period of tremendous change in South Africa and also in the United States, where they moved during the 1960s. She discovers similarities in the two countries, including the arrogance of power. Anchored in history and culture, A Life's Mosaic sharply reveals the world and the people of South Africa. As the story of a political exile, it represents the dislocations that have caused universal suffering in the second half of the twentieth century. Phyllis Ntantala discusses the cruelty of racism, the cynicism of political solutions, and the hopes of those who live in both a world of exile and a world of dreams.
Book Synopsis Down Second Avenue by : Es'kia Mphahlele
Download or read book Down Second Avenue written by Es'kia Mphahlele and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Down second avenue is Es'kia Mphahlele's autobiography of his South African childhood and his struggle against discrimination. The memoir tells of Es'kia's childhood in Maupaneng, a small village outside Pietersburg, and Marabastad, a location in Pretoria. Here he showed academic promise. This resulted in a career as a teacher. After a number of years, though, he was barred from teaching because of his vocal opposition to the segregation and discrimination occurring in schools. Mphahlele then worked for Drum magazine in various capacities. The biography culminates in his exile from South Africa in 1957. Down second avenue is Mphahlele's personal account of his struggle for identity and dignity in the face of the growing discriminatory policies of the South African government. It is a compelling mix of humour and pathos.
