To assist in gaining some knowledge of the real conditions in RSA, I would like to write privately to any gentlemen living there. The vision presented in class today was that the country which everyone pinned such hopes for multi-racialism and progressive democratic government ten years ago is slipping into a Mugabe/Zimbabwean dictatorship. The infrastructure is said to be crumbling, the courts and newpapers are said to be under increasing "supervision" and the place is basically coming apart. Eldon maintains this is yet another example of the inferiority of the black race and their inability to govern themselves, even when presented with a functioning and industrialized country. Was the country really better off under apartheid? I have to debate this in two weeks from the side of the current government. I have to get my heart into this if I'm going to do a good job.
You know, I really try hard not to be prejudiced, but the films and reports we saw today were pretty damning towards the black leadership. Africa is a cesspool, on that Eldon and I agree, but I thought at least RSA could become an example, and instead it seems to be sinking to the level of Zimbabwe. Remember "White" Rhodesia? Contrast it with "Black" Zimbabwe. Eldon says... well, never mind.
Serious stuff only, okay? whitewaterkid at gmail dot com
