A Human Being Died That Night
by Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela
Eugene de Kock, commanding officer of apartheid death squads, is currently serving 212 years in prison for crimes against humanity. Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela, who grew up in a black South African township, is the only psychologist to have served on that country’s great national experiment in healing, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. As the book opens, in an act of inescapable, multilayered symbolism and of extraordinary psychological courage, Gobodo-Madikizela enters Pretoria’s maximum security prison to meet the man called "Dr. Death." Gobodo-Madikizela’s experience with and deep empathy for the victims of murderous violence, including those killed by de Kock, become clear in arresting scenes, set during the TRC hearings, in which perpetrators and their victims are both given voice. Her profound understanding of the language and memory of violence, and of the searingly complex issues surrounding apology and forgiveness after mass atrocity, will leave a mark on scholarship and our emotional lives. Gobodo-Madikizela’s journey with de Kock, during which she allows us to witness the extraordinary awakening of his remorse, brings us to one of the great questions of our time: What does it mean when we discover that the incarnation of evil is as frighteningly human as we are?
