Notes

1 A. Mager and G. Minkley, ‘Reaping the Whirlwind: The East London Riots of 1952’, in P. Bonner, P. Delius and D. Posel (eds), Apartheid’s Genesis: 1935-1962 (Johannesburg, Ravan Press, 1993), pp. 229–51.

2 Quoted in L.J. Bank, Home Spaces, Street Styles: Contesting Power and Identity in a South African City (Johannesburg, Wits University Press, 2011), p. 219.

The massacre is discussed in some detail by L. Bank and B. Carton in ‘Forgetting Apartheid: History, Culture and the Body of a Nun’, Africa, 86, 3 (2016), pp. 480–5. Breier, however, is willing to credit Card for introducing these events to the historical record.
