8 SEMPER July 19,1978 SOUTH AFRICA: On The Road To Civil War The Real Meaning of Apartheid

At first I assumed that many Africans preferred to eat on the pavement because of the warm climate, or because it was more casual, or because the cafe was crowded. It was only on my second day in Johannesburg, eating lunch with two Whites, that I learned that Blacks cannot by law eat inside such a cafe in the city it is a "White" cafe. Mind you, the owner doesn't miss out on the cash-the Hacks can buy there, just not eat inside. This is the honor of apartheid: you cannot escape it once you visit South Africa. I thought I knew a lot about it, especially as I had just read Don Woods'book about the murder of Steve Biko by the Security Police. However, I was constantly surprised at the extent and degree of separation between races, at the exploitation of Africans, Asians, and "Coloureds", and perhaps to an even greater extent at the effort to deny the existence of the "non-Whites" even though they represent 85% ofthe population.

A good example of the latter point one item with any reference to the fact was broadcasting. In my hotel the radio that more than 20 million black Africans had 5 channels.
