My work is on race and politics in the United States and Southern Africa. 
I also write about South African and African issues for the Foreign Policy 
Association.

I am currently at work on a book on bus boycotts in the US and South 
Africa in the 1940s and 1950s and on another on South Africa in the 1980s.
