Description

A 1969 issue dedicated to the centenary of Mahatma Gandhi and his relevance to a "violent world." The editorial analyses the unexpected victory of the anti-apartheid Labour Party in the Coloured Persons' Representative Council elections, mocking the government's attempts to nominate losing candidates to maintain control. It also includes Edgar Brookes' analysis of the "sullen silence" of oppressed South Africans and Donald Molteno’s critique of the "B.O.S.S. Act" (Bureau of State Security).
