[From the introduction by de Klerk] Growing up in the Eastern Cape [South Africa], being one of the bafana [young men], in a way opened my eyes to looking at things differently. I could speak their language before my own, and life on the beautiful farm was a real Eden. As a young man, I soon realized the wrong image that most people had of the black male. I knew that I had to do something to change this, and hopefully this book will contribute. Seller Inventory # 000412
