Latest issue of Amandla! covers Marikana massacre
While a lot has been written on Marikana, the issue looks at worker organisation in the platinum industry and the tradition of rank-and-file organising which helps to explain the rebellion against labour bureaucratisation.
Contributions from Ronnie Kasrils, David Van Wyk, Gavin Capps and the magazine's team systemically analyses the growth of the platinum and coal industries and the way this is poisoning the body politic as well as the environment and mining communities.
Beyond the words of outrage, it features the powerful photography of Ilan Godfrey and Jeannette Unite's artworks that portray the real cost of mining on South African people.
