The narrative explores the Boer campaign against Chief Malaboch in 1894, emphasizing the perspective of Rev. Colin Rae, who accompanied the troops as a chaplain. Rae's diary reveals the Malabochians' passive resistance to what they viewed as unjust encroachment on their rights. The account transitions to the decline of the Ndebele nation in Zimbabwe, detailing the devastating impact of the Gukurahundi massacres and the subsequent loss of cultural and economic autonomy. Rae's reflections and the historical context highlight the enduring struggles of marginalized communities.
