Reading Time: < 1 minute

“My Father Died for This” is a book by SABC journalist Lukhanyo Calata, the son of anti-apartheid activist, Forte Calata.

The book captures the life of Forte, the father he never knew, and the other three apartheid activists who later became known as the Cradock 4.

The murder of the four activists, whose bodies were found charred beyond recognition at the height of Apartheid sent shock waves through out the country, becoming a mystery that’s yet to be resolved.

The candidly written book has been co-authored with Lukhanyo’s wife, Abigail.

The couple is in studio with us.
