black majority and its allies were battling the powerful, wealthy, and

security forces murdered heroic figures like Steven Biko and tried to assassinate
Constitutional Court Justice Albie Sachs, blowing off one of his

transition to a multiracial democracy during the 1990s was therefore
miraculous, especially compared to the civil wars that have broken out
in other nations |
