This is a book of deep reflections on a personal and social level. The reflections touch on Social relations, Gender relations and Race relations from a personal perspective. The responsibilities of society in the personal development of its members is highlighted and held to the same accountability as that of the family unit.

 

Thus, the underlying theme of the book is Individual, Family and Community. The reflections are written and perfectly arranged to show the impact of a negative history on one individual; how that history affects their own family in turn causing damage to the children; which in turn affects the whole community as families are the building blocks of communities. Now with the history of abuse, hate and anger that many of the heads of families today where raised under during Apartheid, what could the impact of this be on the Black community today? Poems like "Kas'Lam, "Our Love Culture” and many others paint that picture for the reader.

 

THE BOOK IS DIVIDED INTO FOUR SECTIONS:

The Black Family and Community

The Black Heart and All its Darkness

Black Thoughts and Other Emotions

Black Progress
