Abstract: |
This collection comprises of political cartoons that Zapiro (Jonathan Shapiro) produced when the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was established. It was published on a weekly basis for the “Mail and Guardian” and on a daily basis for the “Sowetan” and the “Cape Argus”. Zapiro lampoons in many cartoons the way "justice" was meted out during the course of the TRC as well as fundamental inadequacies he finds in its task of "truth-finding". |
