Cry for freedom in Ka-Lasha - E-book - ePub

The story of Njabulo and Thandi - a male and female, respectively - two courageous members of democratic formations based in the African African state of Ka-Lasha serves as a powerful testament to the ongoing struggle for democracy and human rights around the world. Their arrest and imprisonment on trumped-up charges of sedition for advocating democratic freedoms ignited a global outcry, as the international community condemned the Ka-Lasha regime's blatant disregard for human rights and its heavy-handed crackdown on political dissent. This short story explores the high price Njabulo and Thandi paid for standing up for their principles, as well as the growing international pressure that mounted on the Ka-Lasha government to heed the calls for reform and respect for fundamental liberties.
It also explores why undemocratic regimes resist calls for reforms.
