"Black Beauty" was banned in South Africa primarily due to its themes of animal rights and the critique of cruelty towards animals, which some authorities believed could incite social unrest or challenge prevailing attitudes about authority and hierarchy. The book's strong advocacy for the humane treatment of horses was seen as potentially subversive in a society grappling with broader issues of oppression and inequality. This censorship reflects historical tensions around literature that promotes social justice and ethical considerations.
