South Africa, as many close observers of its inner workings know, is a
place of contradiction. It has long been so. Given the country’s obvious racial
history, the contradiction is at some levels perfectly comprehensible. But it
is not without its puzzles. While the chasm between those with privilege
and those without it has a racial character, belying this situation and
giving it its less than legible obviousness are the continually confounding
ways in which a number of factors work prior to, behind, alongside of
and after ‘race’. They have the effect of calling us to pause each time we
explain what the problem of South Africa is all about. How one makes
sense of race is what drives Zimitri Erasmus’s Race Otherwise: Forging a
New Humanism for South Africa. She writes with a searing commitment to
being human. It is a text which continues in that distinctive South African
tradition of engaged non-racial and anti-racist scholarship.
