"We know that all interracial groups in South Africa are relationships in which whites are superior, blacks inferior. So as a prelude, whites must be made to realize that they are only human, not superior. Same with blacks. They must be made to realize that they are also human, not inferior." ― #SteveBiko #BlackHistory

OneWorld: *Waarom je burgerrechtenactivist Steve Biko (1946-1977) moet kennen*
"Zondag zou hij 76 zijn geworden. Stephen Bantu (Steve) Biko was een van de eerste iconen van de anti-apartheidsstrijd in Zuid-Afrika. Hij verloor zelfs zijn leven in de strijd voor gelijkheid. Toch kennen veel Nederlanders hem niet. Wie was deze geestelijk vader van de Black Consciousness Movement?
Volgens Nelson Mandela was hij ‘de vonk die een veldbrand begon in Zuid-Afrika’. Goede vriend Donald Woods herinnert zich dat Steve (Stephen Bantu) Biko iedereen aan zijn kant wist te krijgen met zijn intelligentie en grote woordenschat. Deze zondag zou Biko 76 jaar zijn geworden, maar in 1977 verloor hij zijn leven voor de vrijheidsstrijd van Zuid-Afrika, waar hij zijn stempel op drukte. Wat zou iedereen over hem moeten weten? …"

Hay fechas que no es placentero recordar porque nos remiten a momentos difíciles más allá de donde ocurran. Lamentablemente la de hoy nos lleva a la Sudáfrica de 1977 cuando el entonces estado racista decidiera arrestar a #SteveBiko mientras volvía de un mitin político. Como consecuencia de una larga detención y los brutales interrogatorios sufrió una fuerte lesión en la cabeza. Después que un médico recomendara que lo lleven a un hospital, la policía decidió enviarlo innecesariamente a 1200 km de distancia en la parte trasera de una camioneta esposado y semiinconsciente. Fueron 12 horas de viaje, hasta que el cuerpo moribundo del activista llegaría a Pretoria donde fallecería el 12 de septiembre
