Being Black in the World
Being-Black-in-the-World, one of N. Chabani Manganyi’s firstpublications, was written in 1973 at a time of global socio-political change.The Black Consciousness movement had emerged in the mid-1960s and the Africancontinent was throwing off its colonial yoke. In South Africa, renewedresistance to the brutality of apartheid rule would detonate in the Sowetouprising led by black school children three years later. Publication of Being-Black-in-the-World was delayed untilthe young Manganyi had left the country to study at Yale University. Hispublishers feared that the apartheid censorship board and security forces wouldprohibit him from leaving the country, and perhaps even incarcerate him, forbeing a ‘radical revolutionary’. The book thus found a limited public circulationin South Africa and original copies were hard to come by. This new edition, incontrast to its previous suppression, is an invitation to the #FeesMustFallgeneration to engage freely with early decolonising thought by an eminent SouthAfrican intellectual.An astute social and political observer, Manganyi haswritten widely on subjects relating to ethno-psychiatry, autobiography, blackartists and race. In 2018 Manganyi’s memoir, Apartheid and the Making of aBlack Psychologist was awarded the prestigious ASSAf (The Academy of Science ofSouth Africa) Humanities Book Award.Each of these short essays can be read as self-containedreflections on what it meant to be black during the apartheid years. Manganyiis a master of understatement, and yet this does not stop him from makingincisive political criticisms of black subjugation under apartheid. While theessays are clearly situated in the material and social conditions of that time,they also have a timelessness that speaks to our contemporary concerns regardingblack subjectivity, affectivity and corporeality, the persistence of a racial(and racist) order and the need for a renewed decolonising project.The essays will reward close study for anyone trying to makesense of black subjectivity and the persistence of white insensitivity to blacksuffering. Ahead of their time, the ideas in this book are an exemplarydemonstration of what a thoroughgoing and rigorous decolonising critique shouldentail. The re-publication of this classic text isenriched by the inclusion of a foreword and annotation by respected scholarsGarth Stevens and Grahame Hayes respectively, and an afterword by publicintellectual Njabulo S. Ndebele.

Apartheid and the Making of a Black Psychologist
This intriguing memoir details in a quiet and restrained manner with what it meant to be a committed black intellectual activist during the apartheid years and beyond. Few autobiographies exploring the ‘life of the mind’ and the ‘history of ideas’ have come out of South Africa, and N Chabani Manganyi’s reflections on a life engaged with ideas, the psychological and philosophical workings of the mind and the act of writing are a refreshing addition to the genre of life writing. Starting with his rural upbringing in Mavambe, Limpopo, in the 1940s, Manganyi’s life story unfolds at a gentle pace, tracing the twists and turns of his journey from humble beginnings to Yale University in the USA. The author details his work as a clinical practitioner and researcher, as a biographer, as an expert witness in defence of opponents of the apartheid regime and, finally, as a leading educationist in Mandela’s Cabinet and in the South African academy.Apartheid and the Making of a Black Psychologist is a book about relationships and the fruits of intellectual and creative labour. Manganyi describes how he used his skills as a clinical psychologist to explore lives – both those of the subjects of his biographies and those of the accused for whom he testified in mitigation; his aim always to find a higher purpose and a higher self.

Noel Chabani Manganyi
This is fundamentally a book about race, antiblack racism, and the related problem of the alienation of human beings from one another, from their bodies, and from themselves, all within the context of apartheid and postapartheid South Africa.Mabogo More critically engages with the work of Noel Chabani Manganyi (1940–), a prolific author and South Africa's first Black clinical psychologist, to reflect on race in South Africa today. As he explores Manganyi's concerns about apartheid racism's production of alienation among Black people, More argues that this devastating alienation continues, to the detriment both of individual Black South Africans and their entire society.
