Summary: Xuma arrives in Johannesburg innocent from a less complex way of life. Xuma experiences police brutality as an innocent bystander. The only place where Xuma can regard himself as a man is deep within the bowels of the mine, far removed from pass laws, racial prejudice, and a Johannesburg which always regards him, not as the strong man that he is, but as a boy.
