Description
Survival, writes Mamphela Ramphele, is a stronger force than the fear of offending others. Born black and female in apartheid-ruled South Africa, Ramphele went on to become one of the most distinguished women on the African continent--a prominent activist, medical doctor, anthropologist, teacher, university leader, as well as a mother to two sons. Across Boundaries chronicles Ramphele's inspiring journey, and reveals the staggering personal losses that coexisted with her astonishing political and professional achievements.
In addition to recounting the fascinating and often gripping events of her life, she describes the personal side of her experiences--her early struggles to maintain dignity and hope in a world that devalued both black people and women; her battles against despair, especially after the murder of her colleague and lover Steven Biko and the death of her third child in infancy; her mistakes and regrets, as well as her triumphs.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
