To understand the life and development of a peace activist in South Africa, and a granddaughter of Mahatma Gandhi, one must understand the many contexts of both South African life and the Indian campaigns of nonviolence. South Africa today, even after several decades since liberation from racist apartheid, still has many problems. This chapter reviews both the original Gandhian practices which underscore ongoing work as well as the new generations of Gandhian nonviolence and peace practice which has developed in South Africa from the 1970s to the present era. It describes how work is different now, as people face very big challenges with the governments not always responsive. The development of a Bill of Rights entrenched in the modern constitution is discussed, as are the many instruments available to openly challenge the government if rights are infringed. The prejudicial, social, political and economic discrimination leading to extreme disparities among the different race groups required a very well-thought-out process towards change. The strategies employed to first bring some relief to those most oppressed and repressed are discussed, and their connection to educational policies is noted. The ways in which communities were taught to organise for themselves continue to have relevance to contemporary work.
