Soweto Story

<p class=ql-align-justify><em>Soweto Story</em> is the compelling tale of the trials and tribulations of the Khumalo family that took place during the terrible years of apartheid in South Africa before the release of Nelson Mandela in February 1990.

The family is originally from Cape Town South Africa but he grew up in what was then Western Transvaal now North West Province and also lived in Johannesburg for many years. I reluctantly left South Africa in 1984 for Australia after surviving a 12-hour interrogation in the notorious police station known as John Voster Square in Johannesburg. It was safer to leave. He writes about apartheid from personal experience. From the inside not by others who wrote about apartheid but never experienced it.</p><p><br></p>
