A Junior Library Guild Selection! On June 16, 1976, Hector
Pieterson, an ordinary boy, lost his life after getting caught up
in what was supposed to be a peaceful protest. Black South African
students were marching against a new law requiring that they be
taught half of their subjects in Afrikaans, the language of the
White government. The story's events unfold from the perspectives
of Hector, his sister, and the photographer who captured their
photo in the chaos. This book can serve as a pertinent tool for
adults discussing global history and race relations with children.
Its graphic novel style and mixed media art portray the vibrancy
and grit of Hector's daily life and untimely death. Heartbreaking
yet relevant, this powerful story gives voice to an ordinary boy
and sheds light on events that helped lead to the end of apartheid.
