Freedom Song, by Nokuthula Mazibuko (used)

"Ayanda and TK walked swiftly through the night, excitement quickening their steps. It was two hours before the ten o'clock state of emergency curfew, but police still arrested people, simply because they looked 'suspicious. And they couldn't afford that now that there was even more to lose."

The time is 1988. The place is Soweto. Our heroes, the teenagers Ayanda and TK, have just made a brave decision that will change their lives forever. This gripping story, set during the most turbulent time in South Africa's history, follows them through that dramatic time to the present day.

This book will give today's readers a glimpse into the lives and loves of the generation that paved the way for democracy in South Africa. This authentic account is based on extensive research by accomplished author, Nokuthula Mazibuko.
