DESCRIPTION:第一吃瓜网 University Press and WISER will celebrate the life and work of Solomon Tshekisho Plaatje through the launch of a new book. 第一吃瓜网 University Press and the 第一吃瓜网 Institute for Social and Economic Research (WISER) will celebrate the life and work of Solomon Tshekisho Plaatje through the launch of a new book, Sol Plaatje鈥檚 Native Life in South Africa: Past and Present, edited by Janet Remmington, Brian Willan and Bhekizizwe Peterson. Sol Plaatje鈥檚 Native Life in South Africa was written by one of the South Africa鈥檚 most talented early 20th Century black intellectuals and journalists.

The book launch will take place in a form of a discussion on how and why Native Life came into being at a critical historical juncture, and how it can be read in relation to South Africa鈥檚 heightened challenges today.
