Nadine Gordimer's iconic anti-apartheid novel "Burger's Daughter" was published #OTD in 1979. Officially banned in South Africa on July 5, 1979, the ban was lifted in October 1979. Gordimer won the #Nobel Prize in Literature in 1991. #litsky #booksky #apartheid
A composite image features a portrait of South African author and anti-apartheid activist Nadine Gordimer (1923–2014) alongside an inset photo of her novel Burger's Daughter. Gordimer is captured from the chest up, looking toward the upper right with a subtle, reflective smile. Her chin-length gray hair is softly swept back, and she wears a burnt-orange jacket over a dark top, paired with a patterned, earth-toned paisley scarf. The background is a soft-focus outdoor setting. To the right, a vertical rectangular inset displays the cover of the 1979 first edition of Burger's Daughter, a book famously banned by the South African apartheid regime. The cover is deep blue, with her name in bold gold lettering, the title in white, and a faint silhouette of two profiles overlapping. The composition bridges the author with her historical work, evoking an intellectual, resilient mood that reflects her 1991 Nobel Prize in Literature achievement.

"The genocide in Gaza has thus become a mirror in which the world sees itself." "Decolonization is not only about borders; it is about dismantling imperial capitalism, militarism, and the global hierarchies that sustain them." #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #Apartheid #Genocide
The Gaza genocide radicalized the world — and there's no going back

The Gaza genocide radicalized the world — and there's no going back

People can't unsee a live-streamed annihilation defended under the banner of liberal democracy. They know the Israeli apartheid regime can no longer exist.

South African writer & anti-apartheid activist Nadine Gordimer died #OTD in 2014. She won the 1991 Nobel Prize in #Literature for "magnificent epic writing" that was of "very great benefit to humanity," specifically for her powerful literary work & activism against #apartheid in S. Africa. #LitSky
A black-and-white photograph of the South African writer and political activist Nadine Gordimer (1923–2014), winner of the 1991 Nobel Prize in Literature, renowned for her powerful anti-apartheid works. Positioned centrally, the older Gordimer is angled slightly right, reaching toward a blurry bunch of flowers. She wears a collared shirt beneath a buttoned jacket, a sweater knotted over her shoulders, an earring, and carries a dark shoulder bag. Her expression is focused and contemplative. Framing her are two young Black girls: one on the left in profile wearing a textured knit top, and one on the right in a spaghetti-strap dress looking directly at Gordimer. A crowded, diverse background of onlookers adds historical weight, suggesting a public rally or community gathering. The tight composition, candid expressions, and soft natural lighting create an intimate yet politically charged mood, embodying Gordimer's deep, lifelong engagement with her country's social struggles.

During the Transatlantic Slave Trade, powerful African tribes sold their African conquests to European enslavers in exchange for beads, alcohol, and cloth. Is the cost of doing business with Elon Musk worth the price of selling Africans, yet again? #elonmusk #southafrica #apartheid
