- Synopsis: "Richard Victor Selope Thema was one of the most influential black figures in South Africa in the twentieth century - yet he is largely forgotten today. Thema was a member of the ANC from 1912, serving for many years on its National Executive Committee. He was a founder of the All-African Convention, was elected to the Natives Representative Council, and was in constant demand as spokesperson and advocate for African rights. He was the first editor of Bantu World, which today is the Sowetan. In the twenty years that Thema was the editor, Bantu World became the leading voice of the black middle class in South Africa. An implacable enemy of segregation, he was an 'Africanist' before the term was popularised, and an intellectual forefather of both the Youth League and of the Pan-Africanists of the 1950s. This is his story, in his own words." -- Publisher's website.
