Abstract Examines how the ANC went from being a force of liberation to serving the economic interests of the elite few, arguing that South Africa's largest trade union's break from the ANC offers hope for changing South Africa's political terrain despite twenty years of state-corporate corruption, growing protests, rising income inequality, and ecological destruction.
