Today we remember my father, Aggrey Klaaste, born 6 January 1940. He dedicated his life to ethical journalism and nation building, believing the media must not only expose injustice but help heal and unite society. His legacy continues to inspire.

"It's a terrible indictment on black journalists that we don't have books or literature, be it biographies or memoirs, in their names, despite repeated calls and promises. We should bury our heads in shame."
