Review # 1 was written on 2019-08-02 00:00:00 Boris Somarriba Apartheid has left its stain. It's on every history book for present and future generations as a warning, so that it never happens again. This book provides us with a short history of apartheid, through some of the most important speeches of Desmond Tutu, a key figure in unlocking the door to freedom in South Africa. I have found no other possible rating but the five stars. Reading it from beginning to end, the reader will feel the descent into the sorrow that apartheid created in South Africa, and the hope and uplifting of spirits of oppressed South Africans to break it down and be free. "Black and white, together."

Review # 2 was written on 2020-07-29 00:00:00 Eduardo Gutierrez Wow. What an amazing look at racial reconciliation and the struggle for justice. Desmond Tutu is a world renowned man of God and worker of peace, and this book does an excellent job of using his speeches and writings to tell the story of South Africa’s struggle with apartheid. I found many of Tutu’s works to speak to current race issues today, and thoroughly enjoyed this book.
