They're Burning the Churches is a meticulously written, moving account of the groundbreaking events that dramatically accelerated the downfall of apartheid. Noonans' clear and unbiased historical record clarifies many misconceptions regarding important events such as the Sharpeville Six Trial, the Delmas Treason Trial, the 1984 uprising that led to international sanctions against South Africa, the first-ever army invasions of the Vaal townships, and the still controversial Boipatong massacre that stopped the negotiations for a new south Africa for at least six months. Much of the material is completely new. Historians will relish it. But it's not only or mostly academic. Township people will see themselves in these pages. The peoples of Evaton, Sebokeng, Boipatong, Sharpeville, Bophelong and other urban areas such as Vereeniging and Vanderbijlpark. People who made it happen. The heroes of the piece. It is their tumultuous story. It also includes a section on the formerly despised councillors whom the author invites to share with the reader their past memories and present concerns. This surprising inclusion makes for compelling reading.
The pundits would have you believe that global warming will cause the end of the Earth, and they have a lot of firepower on their side. Should you be afraid of global warming? And if so, what is so threatening about it? Consider the answers to these questions and others, including: Why do global doomers support wildlife conservation if animals exhale carbon dioxide, which contributes to the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere? What place do electric cars have in fighting global warming if they will never be able to travel the distances that regular cars can? Even if you travel 300 miles on one charge, how do you get back at the end of a long trip? Can using ethanol really solve the problem, or does it create even greater woes? Written with a conservative bent, "Global Warming" will help you wade through the arguments of hypocrites so you can take a fresh look at global warming and what can be done to prevent its potential harmful effects.
The author's title is the true account of the traumatised memory of the people of at least five townships in the Vaal. They made it happen; they suffered the consequences; they are remembered. They're burning the churches is written in the downfall of apartheid. The authors' unbiased historical record regarding important events such as the Sharpeville Six trail, the Delmas Treason trial, the 1984 uprising that led to international sanctions against South Africa, the first-ever army invasions of the Vaal townships, and the still controversial Boipatong massacre that stopped the negotiations for a new South Africa for at least six months.
