Mohamed Adhikari lectures in the Department of Historical Studies, University of Cape Town. His books include "Let Us Live for Our Children": The Teachers' League of South Africa, 1913–1940, and he coedited South Africa's Resistance Press: Alternative Voices in the Last Generation under Apartheid (Ohio, 2000).

"Marginality placed severe limitations on possibilities for social and political action. It put the Coloured community at the mercy of a ruling establishment that was generally unsympathetic and that usually acted in prejudicial, and sometimes even malicious, ways." "The book is one of the few that examines in detail various aspects of Coloured people's history, including the disconcerting and discomfiting aspects of Coloured identity rarely discussed in other texts.… A well-written and strongly argued book with original, stimulating and thought-provoking ideas." "Adhikari succeeds in offering one of the most accessible frameworks for organizing the history behind Coloured identity to date. He does so without reducing the complexity that is the sine qua non of this category."
