Sixteen teenagers grew up in New Crossroads, Cape Town, in the 1990s. A decade later they find themselves in markedly different circumstances. Bulelwa is a self-confident young woman with a good career, Bulelani is completing a tertiary education. But Phalo has been killed in a gang fight and most of the others are unemployed. What has made the difference?
As someone who herself rose above straitened beginnings to achieve great success, Mamphela Ramphele has a passionate interest in our young people, the risks they face and the strategies they choose to overcome them. In this book she allows the youth to speak for themselves - what emerges is the raw truth about being young and black in urban South Africa.
Soft cover, good condition.
