"I've just bought my brother Bheki Langa's book Tales Of The Grindstone. I'm looking forward to reading it, and then getting him to sign it on my next visit home (South Africa). The Langa family (including Judge Pius, Ben, and Mandla) were family to me. We were involved in the struggle together, and I used to sometimes sleep over at their home in KwaMashu during tough times (a story for another time...)."
