Biko Paperback – 15 Oct. 1987

There were undertones of racism from nelson mandela in his speech before his internment though granted he was an oppressed people and projecting black conciousness. Stephen Biko hoped for a united and equal South Africa but what we have today is a south africa that appears to have replaced the white aggressor with a black aggressor particularly a unfactual land grabber similar to mozambique.Stephen Biko did not die for blacks he died for a free south africa through black conciousness. This book is book 2 from donald woods and his own dramatic escape to expose aparthied to the world. As Nelson and Stephen explain through their struggle they were looking to be equals not to replace white power with black power but the struggle to break the yoke through black conciousness was the equivalent of the reinvention of mankind. The israelis did it and now the africans have done it but at what cost. I know more white south africans are leaving south africa because of the black conciousness movement has become too political but nevertheless this book Biko by Donald Woods and made in to a film Cry Freedom is an important guide to democracy; justice and humanity. I don't know if Stephen Biko was given a postumous nobel peace prize but he should be awarded this prize My personal score for Biko is 10/10.
