Description
"This book investigates the lives of migrant black African men who work on the South African gold mines, from their own point of view and, as much as possible, in their own words. Dunbar Moodie examines the operation of local power structures and resistance, changes in production techniques, the limits and successes of unionization, and the nature of ethnic conflicts in different periods and on different terrains of struggle"--Back cover
