Fatima Meer by Fatima Meer

At just 17, Fatima Meer threw herself into resisting racism, her first public act of defiance in a long and pioneering political life. Despite assassination attempts, she persevered on the courageous path she had chosen. In this intimate memoir, Fatima Meer shares her story of growing up and of love, joy, longing and loss. As Meer open-heartedly reflects on her regrets as well as her triumphs, an enchanting tale emerges of a rebellious, revolutionary woman who never shied away from the truth.
Fatima Meer (1928-2010) was a fearless sociologist and writer who campaigned against injustice. She was a courageous, selfless and an independent-minded activist, who was never afraid to speak out. She even campaigned against injustice within the post-1994 democratic South Africa. Meer was married to fellow political campaigner Ismail Meer.
