About this book:
Winner of the Sunday Times Nonfiction Award 2022
Sunday, 9 November 1952. It should be remembered as a day of infamy but few know of a brutal massacre when police opened fire at an ANC Youth League event in Duncan Village in East London. In the cover-up that followed, the facts were almost lost to history. Bloody Sunday follows the trail of the remarkable Sister Aidan, who worked in the township, to piece together one of the most tragic days of the apartheid era.
