The Inheritors: An Intimate Portrait of South Africa's Racial Reckoning Fairbanks Eve
Winner of the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award for NonfictionThis "elegant" and "unfailingly empathetic" narrative (The New York Times) follows three ordinary South Africans living through the most extraordinary reckoning with race and power any modern country has ever faced.Dipuo, who grew up in apartheid-era Johannesburg's largest Black township, conceived her only daughter, Malaika, on the mine dump that separated the Black city from the white one. For Malaika and her peers would be born to a historic destiny: to grow up and live in a Black-led society.All three--Dipuo, Christo, Malaika--and so many other South Christo, one of the last white men drafted to police that boundary, would come to realize--one night on the same mine dump--that everything he had been taught to believe was collapsing to make way for something unprecedented.
