An unauthorised biography of Lindiwe Mazibuko, the first black person to lead the parliamentary opposition in South Africa.

Owning The Future is a crucial overview of the Democratic Alliance ahead of the 2014 general elections and a tale of the remarkable campaign led by a young team of MPs to replace a member of the old guard.

Chapters include:

• Who is Lindiwe Mazibuko?
• “Cheeky Blacks”. What does the profile of Mazibuko – and how Julius Malema denigrated her - say about being young, black and powerful in South Africa today?
• “Dirty Laundry” For the first time in Opposition history, the intrigues surrounding an internal party election spilled over into local media.
• “Let’s talk money” Unpacking the DA's economic policies and how Mazibuko supports these.
