More DescriptionOne area not covered in our educational institutions is the history of the struggle as led by the African National Congress. The Journey of Hope engages with this while also filling in important gaps relating to how the ANC conducted itself underground and what it achieved which made it 'a government-in-waiting'.Aubrey MatloleThe Journey of Hope is peppered with tales of diverse experiences in the life of this humble, gentle and committed South African patriot. One of these is Motswaledi's experiences at the University of Zululand where he first learned to infuse his 'good-boy Christian upbringing' with the radical student politics of the post-1976 era.Sandile NgidiThe author is a storyteller.Cathy Eberle - editorCongratulations on a brilliant book. I believe all South Africans should read it. Well done.Warren Veenman - author of the bestseller "Unleash Your Full Potential".Throughout my life's journey, I have always been sustained by my resilience, perseverance, and hard work, but, more than that, I was sustained by my philosophical belief in the inherent good of humanity and life. That is why, after all the pain and suffering, I still see all South Africans as members of my extended family regardless of what happened in the past. I never allowed despondency to rule my life. Instead, I was always positive that one day the human spirit of solidarity and brotherhood would triumph over the forces of evil. I encourage young people in my country not to lose hope in the face of adversity. Do not sit and sulk when things are bad. Work hard and stay positive, and one day you will be on your feet again.Jacob Motswaledi - the author
