My Father Died for This: Unearthing trauma

The story of the Cradock Four comes alive in the literary journey of Lukhanyo and Abigail Calata, in the book, My Father Died for This. Exploring the apartheid killings of the Cradock Four in 1985, Joanne Joseph embarks on an intimate exploration of the personal cost to families like the Calatas, who lost their father and husband in extra-judicial killings. Drawing on the David Forbes documentary on the Cradock Four and interviews with other key players, this podcast sketches the human toll of the liberation struggle.
