Jaki Seroke, the political struggle veteran was tortured and sentenced to twelve years in Robben Island. He was arrested at a roadblock near Koster while traveling with the commander of APLA. The Pan Africanist was in the underground movement of the PAC, criss-crossing the country as a courier between the exiles and the home front, and emerged above ground in later years as a delegate at the CODESA. This is a memoir of a foot soldier of the movement.
