In this single square mile hemmed in by White areas, residents
engaged in what is arguably the most multi-faceted, inventive, and
versatile strategy of resistance during the 1970s. Apartheid on a
Black Isle brings to the fore the definitive but underappreciated
role that Alexandra played in advancing human rights. Using their
manufactured space, Alexandrans revolutionized the South African
freedom struggle by fertilizing the underground movement, by
joining in solidarity with Soweto during the student uprising and
by finding unique ways to grieve. This book explores and introduces
ordinary Alexandrans whose narratives challenged preconceived
notions of resistance, identity, gender and space.
