Explanation:

Hilary Kromberg Inglis' "The Light of Gandhi's Lamp" tells the author's experience and life during the Apartheid in South Africa. She also narrates how the social issues framed her upbringing and decisions about her approaches to life in later years.

Growing up during the Apartheid in South Africa, the narrator and author had first hand experience of how and what the Apartheid could do to anyone, including her own family. She had seen how the system separated her family, her uncle banned from the country while even her grandfather was refused/denied entry into the country. She had a first hand experience of separation all because of this issue, realizing the cruel nature of the racist laws that were issued. This made her come to the realization and belief that this Apartheid is not just a simple political and social issue but rather a form of war, a different type of war that has the same repercussions like any other wars.
