Though starting out a bit polemic, seemingly a bit heavy handed with the socio-political history of South Africa before its independence, My Children! My Africa! ends on a truly moving note. Fugard's play leans hard on its 3 characters, one teacher and two students; teacher and one student, black, the other student white. The story brings attention to some essential questions: How do we teach? How do we decide what is taught? How does education enforce the status quo at the expense of overlooking achievements of so-called lesser/minority races? Is violence essential to change? Is slow change superior, or fast? Who decides? As a reader, you have to grapple with these complex issues, but you also delight in the story itself, which builds from abstract discussions to powerful violence in South Africa, as each character in succession wins your heart. When the play is all over, you almost can't believe how Fugard got us from the beginning to the end, it's so well put together.
