Black Consciousness and Progressive Movements Under Apartheid

Black Consciousness and Progressive Movements Under Apartheid

Description

Accounts of Black Consciousness have tended to place the discourse in a continuum of resistance to white minority rule, and to assess its significance in bringing about the downfall of apartheid. While these are valid historical narratives, they have occluded some of the deeper resonances and significances of both the movement and the body of ideas. This book takes its cue from Steve Biko’s own injunction to see the evolution of Black Consciousness alongside other political doctrines and movements of resistance in South Africa.
