The statement that best reflects Hilary Kromberg Inlis's viewpoint in The Light of Gandhi's Lamp is the first one: black South Africans should be treated the same as white South Africans.
The author narrates a story where the main character's sister is in prison for fighting peacefully against the Apartheid and tells stories about her childhood where the reader can vividly understand how different white and black africans were treated.
She describes how unfair was that the maids were all black and how they were not allowed to stay in the "white area residences". Black people in Africa had to live in the countrysides and couldn't mix with common white people, from the government's point of view, they were second class people, they only existed in order to serve the white.
