Amy Biehl was a native of my own Northern California Bay Area, who in 1993 traveled to South Africa as an activist to promote racial reconciliation in the wake of Nelson Mandela’s ascension. However, Biehl’s activism was short-lived as she was subsequently ambushed by an anti-white mob and stoned to death by a group of angry Africans for the crime of being white. Her killers were soon after granted amnesty by South Africa’s newly devised Truth and Reconciliation Commission.




My friend’s documentary, like most other mainstream recountings of Biehl’s life, sought to portray the young woman as a martyr of a new racially reconciled nation. Despite her brutal murder, Amy Biehl was presented as a necessary sacrifice, and her killer’s amnesty as an essential symbol of the proper “turn the other cheek attitude” required to build a new post-racial society, free from sectarian strife.

Even as a college freshman, I found this messaging dissonant with the facts as I understood them. Biehl’s murder was just the kind of bigoted violence that was anathema to a successful post-racial society. Her killers, far from misguided revolutionaries, seemed transparently interested in cathartically murdering non-blacks, regardless of the political situation. And it wasn’t even clear how Amy Biehl’s murder, much less the extreme lenience shown to her killers, was going to stop interracial violence or crime generally, in South Africa.

And slowly it occurred to me that the story of Mandela creating a bold post-racial society from the shadow of Apartheid might not be entirely true.

TMZ reports that Lee was shot "multiple times" while he was out taking his dog for a walk, and although he is in the ICU, he is "fully conscious and doing well" following the shooting, and "expected to make a full recovery."

In a statement to Fox News Digital, a rep for Lee said, "As confirmed by management, legendary rock guitarist Jake E.
