Description
‘On The Stage Of Time’ chronicles the extraordinary life of a schoolgirl who became steeped in the ANC struggle for freedom in the mid-70s. As a teenager, Sikose Mji became involved in the clandestine underground and mass mobilisation work of the then-illegal ANC which drew the attention of the Special Branch thus compelling her to leave South Africa to find refuge in the ANC community in exile.
After hopscotching African states she landed in New York which took her straight into international solidarity engagements with the international community traversing many countries and culminating in her training as a soldier of Umkhonto We Sizwe in Angola.
During this journey of family disruptions, inter-generational traumas and forced childhood separations, the schoolgirl matured to become a mother, studied to become a professional and thereafter worked as a diplomat representing her country internationally.
