Biko was one of our struggle stalwarts who worked hard to make this country what it is.
Black Consciousness is poorer without him. As South Africans, we have become a nation with a serious identity crisis, particularly the educated blacks . Biko tried to show us that we don't need the affirmation of white people to liberate ourselves . Biko's book, I Write What I Like, is still relevant - South Africans should be encouraged to learn more about their identities.
