Activism through Music during the Apartheid Era and Beyond
documents the grassroots activism of Sharon Katz and the Peace
Train against the backdrop of enormous diversity and the volatile
social and political climate in South Africa in the early 1990s.
Among the intersections of race, healing and the "soft power" of
music, Katz offers a vision of the possibilities of national
identity and belonging as South Africans grappled with the
transition from apartheid to democracy. Through extensive fieldwork
across two countries (South Africa and the United States) and
drawing on personal experiences as a South African of color,
Ambigay Yudkoff reveals a compelling narrative of multigenerational
collaboration. This experience creates a sense of community
fostering relationships that develop through music, travel,
performances, and socialization. In South Africa and the United
States, and recently in Cuba and Mexico, the Peace Train's journey
in musical activism provides a vehicle for racial integration and
intercultural understanding.
