The work focusses on the different facets of colonial and post-colonial images of racial discrimination, exploitation, oppression, torture, dehumanization, and alienation, as well as the manner in which the dramatist explicates these horrible consequences in his work, Sizwe Bonzi Is Dead. It provides a critical viewpoint on the playwright’s portraiture of many characters, themes, and other concerns highlighted as symbolic representations of diverse aspects of colonialism.
According to the research, Athol Fugard’s Sizwe Bansi Is Dead is a literary endeavour to wage a literary war against European and Western imperialists who continue to make life difficult for minorities, colonized, and oppressed people, particularly in South Africa.
