Please join Khulu Radebe and Jeff Kelly Lowenstein at the Johannesburg Holocaust & Genocide Centre for the launch of their book, Comrade King, which will include a conversation between Khulu Radebe will be in conversation with Jeff Kelly Lowenstein.
At age 50, and proving a prophet’s prediction correct, Khulu Radebe learned about his royal roots. He was informed that he was the ruler of the AmaHlubi people of the Embo Nation, a nation that stretches along the east coast of Africa. In chronicling his extraordinary life and times in this landmark autobiography, Radebe, in a humane and vivid way, chronicles the revolutionary path for freedom in South Africa. Alexandra Township in Johannesburg is a central character in this book and Radebe reveals an astonishing story of the post-1990 war between Inkatha and the ANC in Alex. Gripping, bold and original, Comrade King, is an unforgettable story. King Bhungane III, born Khulu Radebe, a former activist, Robben Island graduate, and Umkhonto we Sizwe member, now reigns as the King of the Embo Nation.
Jeff Kelly Lowenstein is an accomplished investigative journalist, author, and Executive Director of the Centre for Collaborative Investigative Journalism (CCI)).
