His message to the youth and students was simple and clear: Black is Beautiful! … And with that he inspired our youth to shed themselves of the sense of inferiority … assert yourself and be self-reliant! With that he ignited a passion in the youth and they walked tall … He understood that an enslaved people through their actions make freedom. He was focused on how to get our people into action, on how we could achieve freedom. He forged* a space in the midst of repression … He was arrested while he was busy going around the country consulting with a broad spectrum* of people, gathering in different pockets of resistance. He was quietly preparing a clandestine* meeting he was due to hold with Oliver Tambo, the president of the ANC … The very thought of a link- up between the ANC and the Black Consciousness Movement was unthinkable to the apartheid government … Steve Biko lives on in the galaxy of brave and courageous leaders who helped shape democratic South Africa … [Adapted from: Xolela Mangcu.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com NATIONAL SENIOR CERTIFICATE: HISTORY: PAPER II Page 4 of 8 QUESTION 3 CURRENT ISSUE IN THE MEDIA This is an extract from an article published in a popular South African online publication called The Daily Maverick on 9 January 2019. The article reports on the death and legacy of Dr Alex Boraine. Alex Boraine (1931–2018): South Africa mourns the passing of a truly decent man Good, kind, decent, insightful: these are the adjectives most frequently used to describe Alex Boraine, who passed away in Cape Town on 5 December at the age of 87. Boraine, the man credited with the concept of the Truth & Reconciliation Commission, devoted most of his adult life to the quest for meaningful democracy in South Africa. Alex Boraine's name and reputation became so tied to the Truth & Reconciliation Commission in South Africa that it is easy to forget that his work at the TRC was one of the later acts of a life committed to public service ... Boraine's opposition to apartheid took him into Parliament in 1974 … President Cyril Ramaphosa said in a statement on Thursday that Boraine remains 'widely respected for the role he played … in opposing the apartheid government and seeking ways to achieve a peaceful dismantling of the system of racial discrimination and oppression. … He had this ability to see the big picture, to see the society that could be, but also to then go around doing the day-to-day work to put plans into action.' Never was this skill-set more valuable than in launching and running the Truth & Reconciliation Commission, of which Boraine served as deputy chairperson. 'Alex was measured, reassuring, organised and efficient,' said Archbishop Desmond Tutu in a statement reflecting on Boraine's work for the TRC … I could not have managed the Commission without him.' … although the Commission has been criticised in recent years for being over- conciliatory* in its focus, its concept – with which Boraine is mostly credited – was 'incredibly progressive' for the time. 'The National Party wanted blanket amnesty [for those who testified],' … 'But the TRC's amnesty conditions were actually the strictest in the world of any post-conflict situation. Most people didn't get amnesty.' Boraine's work for the TRC was the time which his son describes as 'the busiest and most traumatic of his (father's) life'. It was a source of deep concern to Boraine that most of the perpetrators of apartheid atrocities were never prosecuted for their crimes after the TRC. In 2015, he described the 'failure or refusal of the authorities to pursue the cases from the past' as 'a betrayal of what victims of apartheid struggled and died for'.
