As a news photographer, Ranjith Kally's life work offers a first-hand, on-the-ground perspective of a country in upheaval and a changing society. This thoughtfully curated collection of images, from pivotal historic moments and landmark political events to social documentaries and extraordinary portraits, highlights the unique contribution he has made to the lives of current South Africans intent on honouring their past. As such, the striking and unforgettable black and white photographs contained in Memory Against Forgetting will forever bear testimony to the struggle for dignity and freedom on which our country was built.
