BRAMPTON -
Brampton author Vijay Maharaj recently published a book called Injustice.
The work of nonfiction addresses the systemic disenfranchisement of minorities due to continued racism and colonialism in the modern world.
A survivor of the apartheid regime in South Africa, the author projects a new world order that is without prejudice for any color, country of origin, ethnicity or caste. He unlocks a formula for real change that will foster a sense of humanity and help nations grow as separate but friendly entities for world peace.
Injustice is available at Type Books locations in Toronto at 883 Queen St. W. and 394 Spadina Rd., as well as online at www.amazon.com or www.booksurge.com.
