Richard Stengel, now the editor of "Time, "journeyed to South
Africa in the late 1980s to chronicle life under apartheid. He
ended up spending months in a small rural town where the white
authorities were attempting to forcibly remove a black township. He
tells this moving story through the lives of three families--one
white, one black, one Indian--over the course of a single day for
each of them. The private lives of each family reveal what it was
like to live in a society where everyone is judged by the color of
his or her skin. Stengel reveals the hopes and dreams of each of
these families, and their resilient optimism about the future. In a
new introduction, Stengel describes how some of those hopes even
came to pass with the eventual release of Nelson Mandela and the
election of the country's first truly democratic government.
