Different perspectives on the remarkable life of an anti-apartheid activist who was preciously a ‘key-leader’ of the tertiary based Catholic student movement in South Africa, Kallie Hanekom, are in this presented in this volume by family members and leading figures in the struggle against Apartheid. His brother Derek, a former ANC (African National Congress) Cabinet Minister, gives an insightful overview of his life. Kallie’s sons pay tribute to their brilliant and complex father. Fr Mike Lapsley SSM, an activist who lost his hands in a letter-bomb attack, presents a heartfelt tribute to a brother Christian. Fr Mike Deeb OP gives an appreciative account of working against the Apartheid regime with Kallie over many years, in groups inspired by the Theology of Liberation and the See- Judge-Act Method. Dr Mavuso Msimang, one of the great leaders of the ANC over many years, brings his extensive experience to bear on Kallie’s life within a movement which has changed drastically from revolutionary activism to a government in power. Richard Crowe presents an overview of his friendship with Kallie from student days to their elder years. Richard presents a new understanding of Africa as the first great spiritual culture in world history. Africa, as the cradle of all human spirituality and culture, foreshadowed and informed all succeeding world religions and their cultures. Kallie opposed the evils of Apartheid over many years. He was a builder of human connections that transcended all notions of race or class. This publication celebrates his unique gift for crossing ideological and racial barriers to connect with his fellow human beings in a non-judgemental and egalitarian way.
