Kelebogile Motswatswa. In his autobiography Still Grazing, South African jazz extraordinaire Hugh Masekela’s recollection of a bygone monolith moved me in ways I can’t even begin to enunciate. What particularly struck a nerve were his reflections on the conditions during the Apartheid regime under which miners, in his hometown, Witbank, worked – and the homes to which they returned: no land, no family; they were forced to participate in a migrant labour system that caused the disintegration of many Black families. Reading Masekela’s book got me thinking: how can White South Africans tell me to get over Apartheid when it dehumanised my people in such unbelievable ways? The callousness and lack of empathy is bewildering, to say the least.
