Woods is formally against Biko's banning, but remains critical of his political views. Biko invites Woods to visit a black township to see the impoverished conditions and to witness the effect of the government-imposed restrictions, which make up the apartheid system.

As Woods comes to understand Biko's point of view, a friendship slowly develops between them.
