I'm sorry this is a short-answer forum designed for text specific questions. We are unable to provide student essays.

Kumalo, who was a partor, begins his journey as a member of a family in trouble. He visits Johannesburg in order to help his sister and then becomes consumed in a search for his son. Over the course of the novel, Stephen's determination to reunite his family finds him in a new position..... that of an activist for social justice.

Jarvis, unlike Khumalo, is faced with the task of understanding his son's murder. He is a wealthy man, who like Khumalo, joins the cause of social justice and has the money to promote it in his country.
