We're so looking forward to the launch of Hlonipha Mokoena's new book, THE NIGHTWATCHMAN at Love Books, Melville, Johannesburg on Tuesday 9th September.
The discussion between Hlonipha and historian Khumisho Moguerane on the portrayal of African men in colonial South Africa and how the Black male body and their sartorial choices move through history, should be riveting.
