Truth Justice Memory: South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Process [Introduction]

The TRC provided an opportunity for ordinary South Africans to take the centre stage, to share their stories of suffering and sacrifice. How can we, years later, use this legacy in the building of a generation of reconciling South Africans? This "first-of-its-kind" course aims to expose learners to the TRC event in a sensitive but forthright manner. Twelve DVD clips, each about 20 minutes in length, cover a series of important aspects of the TRC's work. The accompanying teacher's guide contains twelve corresponding chapters, complete with content summary, key questions, tasks for learners and teachers as well as additional sources.
