"The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind
of the oppressed." Like all of Steve Biko's writings, those words
testify to the passion, courage, and keen insight that made him one
of the most powerful figures in South Africa's struggle against
apartheid. They also reflect his conviction that black people in
South Africa could not be liberated until they united to break
their chains of servitude, a key tenet of the Black Consciousness
movement that he helped found.
"I Write What I Like" contains a selection of Biko's writings from
1969, when he became the president of the South African Students'
Organization, to 1972, when he was prohibited from publishing. The
collection also includes a preface by Archbishop Desmond Tutu; an
introduction by Malusi and Thoko Mpumlwana, who were both involved
with Biko in the Black Consciousness movement; a memoir of Biko by
Father Aelred Stubbs, his longtime pastor and friend; and a new
foreword by Professor Lewis Gordon.
Biko's writings will inspire and educate anyone concerned with
issues of racism, postcolonialism, and black nationalism.
