Description
Native Life in South Africa is one of South Africa?s great political books. First published in 1916, it was first and foremost a response to the Native?s Land Act of 1913 and was written by one of the most gifted and influential writers and journalists of his generation. Native Life in South Africa provides an account of the origins of this crucially important piece of legislation and a devastating description of its immediate effects. Plaatje spent many weeks traveling in the countryside and the most moving chapters in the book tell us what he saw. His book explores the wider political and historical context that produced policies of the kind embodied in the Land Act, and documents meticulously steps taken by South Africa?s rulers to exclude black South Africans from the exercise of political power.
