She died just a few metres away from Sindiwe Magona's house. One of the boys held responsible for the killing was her neighbour's son. \u003ci\u003eMother To Mother\u003c\/i\u003e takes the form of an epistle to Amy Biehl's mother.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSindiwe Magona imagines how easily it might have been her own son caught up in the violence of that day.
