"Dukwane's Deliverance” is written by Neil Ramsorrun in 2010. The short story is a about Dukwane who just received a letter from Cambridge university clarifying that he has got in. With his endless happiness that he just have things become more dramatic when a group of youngsters all of sudden attacks him on his way home from work. He is now in the hospital with series of bad injuries and doctors telling him that he might not be able to walk again. Dukwane is a black boy with a big determination to be someone great or to be a part of something greater comparing himself to Barack. “Then you’d better get used to the taste of that. If Barack can do it, so can I.” (p.8 l.24). By comparing himself to Barack who is in fact a black person we get the perception of Dukwane being a black person. He also uses it as a sort of motivator because even though there are not many great black men there still are some who manage to get to the top. Before Dukwane begins to open and read the letter his mother tells him that it is not going to be the end of the world if he does not get in (p.8 l.14). Again a sign of Dukwane’s determination and how his own expectations of himself is bigger than his parents. When Dukwane is having a conversation with his father he sees him sitting in a certain way that apparently makes him sad. “They smiled at each other. As he looked at his father sat there, his button open and exposing his belly overhanging his trousers, he felt a sense of sadness, but also a determination to be more.” Maybe his own father reminds him of someone useless or the kind of people that gets cash benefits. He is also a good boy. He is not that kind of guy that gets angry or act unresponsively when their parents asks them to do something for them. Even though that his father is useless and does not do anything Dukwane is still nice towards him. He tells him not to worry about anything when his father tells him no to forget to pass by
