South African Indians Are Slowly Coming To Terms With Their Indian Identity
Zainab Priya Dala has shared memories of her growing up in South Africa in the 1980s - a time of the State of Emergency.
In her recent book, “What Gandhi Didn’t See: Being Indian In South Africa”, author Zainab Priya Dala looks back from the vantage point of her own personal history – a fourth-generation South African-Indian of mixed lineage – and recalls that, as a child, she was hesitant about accepting her Indian identity, but contends that she has now come to terms with it.
