Description
Nelson Mandela called her his favourite opposition politician. Many say they would vote for her if she decided to run for president. She has consistently been voted South Africa’s favourite politician – after Mandela – in recent years. Although she represents a small party with a primarily radical black support base, her appeal eclipses that of her party, the Pan Africanist Congress. Among the letters of support in her files are those from opposition politicians and parliamentarians to messages of approval from old white grandmothers and radical young black trade unionists.
In this well-researched book and with full cooperation of Patricia de Lille, Charlene Smith presents the real person: a woman of passion, compassion and conviction, and a politician who exists to see justice and truth come before privileges of parliament.
