Abstract
Jonathan D Jansen argues that black intellectuals have been co-opted into government follies, failing to point the way forward to a truly non-racial society.
Description
In the Harold Wolpe Memorial Lecture Series at the Centre for Civil Society at the University of Natal, prof Jansen took a hard look at the plight, stature and the role of the black intellectual. This is an abridged version of his lecture.
