Inhoud:

On the morning of May 24, 1921, a force of eight hundred white policemen and soldiers confronted an African prophet, Enoch Mgijima, and some three thousand of his followers. In the event that has come to be known as the Bulhoek massacre, police killed nearly two hundred of these âIsraelitesâ. In The Finger of God, Robert Edgar reveals how and why the Bulhoek massacre occurred.
