On April 23, 1996, Notrose Nobomvu Konile lifted her hand and swore
to tell the truth to the South African Truth and Reconciliation
Commission. She was the mother of Zabonke Konile, a young man
killed in what has become known as the Gugulethu Seven incident.
Antjie Krog, reporting as a journalist at the time, was struck by
the seeming incoherence of the testimony. In 2004, colleagues
Nosisi Mpolweni and Kopano Ratele joined Krog in a closer
investigation of Mrs. Konile's words. The resulting three-year
collaboration, drawing on different disciplinary and social
backgrounds, has produced a fascinating account that leaves no
detail of Mrs. Konile's narrative unexplored and poses questions
about the unacknowledged assumptions that underpin research in this
country. In addition, the book sheds light on the larger and highly
relevant issues of how black and white South Africans can build
bridges towards understanding one another across the cultural,
social, and economic divides that threaten the country's democracy.
