Sun Apr 1, 2018 9:10 am (PDT) . Posted by: "Elmien Wood" Dit is nou ʼn belangrike gesprek hierdie! Dr. Jan Visagie het op ʼn keer gesê dat al wat hy kan waarborg van sy navorsing is dat daar foute in is. Die genealoog wat ek die seker die meeste respekteer, Alet Swanepoel, maak seker die meeste foute – want haar databasis is die grootste. Sy is ʼn baie, baie noukeurige navorsing wat baie bronne raadpleeg. Wat ek voorstel is dat daar een kopie van die ―Olifant‖ gedruk word en dat veranderinge daarop aangebring word. Dit is waarom ek SAG so waardevol vind. Ek kan in potlood aantekeninge in die kantlyn maak. As ek later uitvind dat die ―verbeteringe‖ foutief was, kan ek dit uitvee. Of liewer deurstreep en neerskryf dat die voorgestelde veranderinge nie reg is nie. Mens kan seker die verbeteringe elektronies aanbring met iets soos ―track and trace‖, maar is dit die moeite werd om die tegniek te leer? Die antwoord is seker, ja, as mens dit na al die uithoeke van die land wil stuur. Wat belangrik is, is om te aanvaar dat daar verbeteringe sal wees en ʼn manier vind om tred te hou daarmee. Klein foutjies soos die verkeerde spelling kan sommer dadelik op die meesterkopie aangebring word. Ek wil tog nie foute uitwys as iemand daardeur te na gekom sal voel nie – dit is regtig nie kritiek nie, met so ʼn merkwaardige projek soos die ―Olifant‖ is dit te wagte. Die gesprek tot dusver volg hieronder. Groete Elmien Ek kry elke nou en dan ‘n fout op die DVD van die 1985-kieserslys.

  • Nelson Mandela (Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela (Nacido Rolihlahla Dalibhunga Mandela))
    Nelson Mandela (Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela (nacido Rolihlahla Dalibhunga Mandela)) Sudáfrica, Presidente de la República Duración del mandato: 10 de Mayo de 1994 - de de Nacimiento: Mvezo, Umtata, provincia del Cabo Oriental , 18 de Julio de 1918 Defunción: Johannesburgo, provincia de Gauteng, 05 de Diciembre de 2013</p> Partido político: ANC Profesión : Abogado ResumenNo ha existido en la política de nuestro tiempo una figura más popular, admirada y universalmente respetada que el sudafricano Nelson Mandela, icono de la lucha contra el apartheid, al que derrotó, antiguo líder del Congreso Nacional Africano, primer presidente negro de su país y Premio Nobel de la Paz. Su liberación en 1990 tras 27 años de cautiverio dio inicio, trabajando estrechamente con el presidente reformista Frederik de Klerk, a una complicada pero finalmente exitosa transición desde la dictadura segregacionista blanca hasta la democracia multirracial, que alumbraron unas elecciones libres ganadas por el ANC, un Gobierno de unidad y una nueva Constitución. Pese al rencor acumulado tras tantos años de represión y a los estallidos de violencia que jalonaron el delicado proceso, Mandela, paradigma de integridad, nunca se cansó de instar a la paz civil y a la reconciliación de los sudafricanos. Su obsesión fue conseguir y preservar la unidad de la "nación arco iris".Durante su mandato presidencial, entre 1994 y 1999, Mandela, con su extraordinario carisma, su rechazo a las medidas radicales y su elevado sentido de la responsabilidad, fijó los pilares políticos y económicos de la nueva Sudáfrica, y medió en los conflictos del continente, pero dejó sin resolver graves déficits sociales. Tras jubilarse de la política y pese a su avanzada edad, el mitificado dirigente, llamado Madiba por sus paisanos, continuó activo en una serie de causas humanitarias hasta que su paulatino apagamiento físico le apartó de la vida pública, aunque no de los pensamientos y los corazones de su agradecido pueblo.

  • Read About the Zenani Mandela Campaign
    FOR EVERY LIFE Zenani “Zenani, my only daughter, celebrated her thirteenth birthday on 9th June 2010. Just two days later, returning home from the FIFA World Cup Kick Off Concert in Soweto, she was killed in a car crash. Her unfortunate and untimely passing was a tragedy shared by millions across the globe. On the same day that I lost Zenani, a thousand other families also lost a child on the world’s roads. This disaster continues to rob us of 1000 young people every single day. Now, in the name of Zenani, we are launching this campaign to raise awareness of this appalling toll of death and injury, and to urge support for the UN’s Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020. Other parents must not go through the pain that I am suffering and will continue to suffer. Now is the time for positive action. Every life we save will be a precious 1000 young people under the age of 25 die every day victory”. on the world’s roads. Unlike Zenani Mandela, most are not born into a famous family. But, just like Zenani, they Zoleka Mandela are much loved and greatly missed by their families. Why do so many children die on the roads? We all want the best for children. Providing better maternal health, vaccinations against disease for under- 5s, clean water and early years care are international priorities. Primary education for all is a major goal. Yet as children reach their second decade of life, interest and investment in their well-being seems to fall away.

Her autobiography takes us from life as a youngster growing up in Fietas, Johannesburg, through marriage, life as a ‘girl reporter’ for first The Golden City Post, then Drum magazine, and on through apartheid and her resistance to it. Written in her inimitable style, thumbing a nose always at convention, it gives a unique insight into one of the only women writers at Drum – and one who could drink just as hard as Can Themba or Nat Nakasa. 978-1-4314-2937-0 | Trade Paperback | World Rights | 235x155mm | 264pp | October 2019 MEMOIR & BIOGRAPHY 3 Winging It On tour with the Boks LIAM DEL CARME Winging It: On tour with the Boks is an insider’s view of life on tour with the national rugby team, the Springboks, from sports writer Liam Del Carme.

  • By Lynda Gichanda Spencer
    - by Lynda Gichanda Spencer Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof Meg Samuelson Co-supervisor: Prof Elleke Boehmer April 2014 i Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this thesis is my original work and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it at any other university for a degree. Signature: Date: Copyright© 2014 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract The thesis examines how women writers from Uganda and South Africa simultaneously offer a critique of nationalist narratives and articulate a gendered nationalism. My focus will be on the new imaginings of women in and of the nation that are being produced through the narratives of emerging women writers in post-repressive nation-states. I explore the linkages in post-conflict writing by focusing on the literary representations of women and womanhood, while taking into account some of the differences in how these writers write women in these two post-repressive regimes. I read the narratives from these two countries together because, in the last fifty years, both Uganda and South Africa have been through prolonged periods of political repression and instability followed by negotiated transitions to new political dispensations. I use the phrase post-repressive to refer to the post-civil war era after 1986 in Uganda and the post-apartheid period subsequent to the 1994 first democratic elections in South Africa.
