  • MOTHER of the NATION: Saint and Sinner
    MOTHER OF THE NATION: Saint and Sinner By Isaac Otidi Amuke ‘‘They set up my father as the saint and set up my mother as the sinner,’’ Zindzi Mandela is quoted saying about her famous parents in Pascale Lamche’s film Winnie. Of all front-row ANC freedom fighters – men and women – Winnie Madikizela-Mandela was singled out as the only leader to appear before South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) in her personal capacity, where she was implored by Desmond Tutu o apologise to the country for whatever might have gone wrong under her watch. Tutu had argued then that her confession would be good for the country. The ANC employed the use of violence during the anti-apartheid struggle, including deploying bombs in strategic government installations, some of which exploded and killed the wrong targets. It was widely held – and as stated by ANC stalwart Ahmed Kathrada during a BBC HardTalk interview – that some bombings were carried out by unruly ANC cadres. These crimes were pegged not on individuals but on the ANC, which sent senior representatives to the TRC to either explain and defend its position or to apologise. The same collective leniency of being represented by the ANC was not extended to Madikizela-Mandela. The liberation sins attributed to her and those around her were placed squarely at her feet, prominent among them being the 1989 killing of 14-year-old Moeketsi “Stompie” Seipei, who was suspected of being a police informer. ‘‘The one person who kept the fire burning when everyone was petrified,’’ Madikizela-Mandela said of her essential if lonely and thankless role in the anti-apartheid struggle in Lamche’s film, a moment in which moment her eyes got watery.

Following the exchange period, we spent an additional month travelling throughout Namibia and South Africa getting to know the people and the apartheid situation in other parts of the country. We do not claim to be experts on South Africa. We did see the South Africa which tourists see and listened to those carefully screened South Africans whom the government presents to tourists as representative voices of their country. We also saw a South Africa very few tourists see and which, in fact, very few South African whites see. Most whites there never get into townships (black• "coloured" and Indian communities) and know people of color only as their servants. At my co~issioning by presbytery I was charged to learn what the conditions were in South Africa, what challenges the church of Jesus Christ was facing there, how it was responding to those challenges, and what the future looked like. I was also charged to bring back the story to our presbytery and to its churches. This diary/journal is part of my fulfillment of that charge.

  • L “Mandela United Football Club” E Altre Mascherate Africane – Di
    http://www.riscossacristiana.it/il-mandela-united-football-club-altre-mascherate- africane-di-roberto-dal-bosco/ Riscossa Cristiana - 10 dicembre 2013 l “Mandela United Football Club” e altre mascherate africane – di Roberto Dal Bosco Storia di un terrorista razzista, dei suoi colleghi, di crudeltà tribali, di legami internazionali, di interessi inconfessabili… di Roberto Dal Bosco Il necklacing, il modello di esecuzione per combustione tramite cui Vinnie Mandela intendeva «purificare la nazione». La regina-strega e le collane della morte Lo chiamavano così, aggiungendo il nome Mandela a quello della squadra più amata d’Inghilterra – perché, nonostante tutto, gli africani vanno pazzi per il calcio inglese. Ma anche se in teoria il Mandela United Football Club (MUFC) era una squadra, non giocava a pallone: era il gruppo deputato alla sicurezza di Vinnie Mandela, la seconda moglie di Nelson. In pratica, le SS della famiglia Mandela. Nel 1989 Vinnie ordinò al MUFC di rapire quattro bambini neri che erano ospitati a casa di un pastore protestante bianco, Paul Verryn. In presenza di Vinnie, i quattro furono picchiati sino a che non “confessarono” che erano stati abusati sessualmente dal reverendo. Al processo, molti anni dopo, Vinnie disse infatti che non li aveva rapiti, ma solo portati via temendo che il pastore fosse pedofilo. Peccato che uno dei quattro bimbi, il quattordicenne Stompe Moeketsi, fu trovato poi semisepolto con la gola squarciata: era, qualcuno aveva detto, un informatore. 1 Il dott. Abu-Baker Asvat, un medico di famiglia che visitò il bambino a casa di Vinnie, venne poi trovato ucciso da una pistolettata poco dopo.

  • Sub-Title: an Oral History of Methodist Ministers
    "Living as a Methodist minister in the late Twentieth Century." Sub-title: An oral history ofMethodist ministers ordained between 1980 and 1999, with particular reference to clergy serving in the Natal West District. By Delme Connett Linscott (Student~umber: 912412901) Supervisor: Philippe Denis Submitted in partial fulfillment ofthe requirement for the Degree of MASTER OF THEOLOGY In the School ofReligion and Theology University ofKwaZulu-Natal Pietermaritzburg 2006 Abstract Very little has been written on the lives ofMethodist ministers in Southern Africa. Even less has been written about ministers using oral history as the primary source ofinformation. This paper will seek to capture the stories ofsome Methodist ministers and then to reflect on their experiences ofministering in the late twentieth century. In order to maintain focus this paper will hone in on the clergy who were ordained in the Methodist Church ofSouthem Africa between 1980 and 1999. A considerable portion ofthe initial analysis has been taken from personal interviews with the ministers, focusing mainly on what they have encountered in their ministries. Most ofthe interviewees are currently serving in the Natal West District, however further valuable feedback has been received from ministers living in other communities around Southern Africa These thoughts and comments were gathered by means ofa questionnaire. This research is further complemented with information gathered by means ofa database. This database deals exclusively with all ministers ordained between 1980 and 1999. Making use ofsimple statistics and comparative figures, a number ofresults will be reflected upon. This paper will also examine what impact ministerial training has had on the formation ofthe ministers, as well as their thoughts on further training.

  • THE TRIAL of WINNIE MANDELA Paul Trewhela
    THE TRIAL OF WINNIE MANDELA Paul Trewhela A Change in Perceptions The prosaic spirit of the 1990s has torn the veil from the most glamourized iconography of the 1980s. In the trial of Winnie Mandela, the recent past of the African National Congress is displayed in a manner to write finis to many of the heroic myths of the period when her husband and his colleagues defied the apartheid regime in the Rivonia Trial, 27 years earlier. Then, the mystique of revolutionary violence was exalted as the antidote to the all-saturating violence of the state. Now, the balance-sheet of the past three decades of nationalist politics is drawn up, and payment must be made. This was recognized outside the courtroom before being recognized in it. The law imitated life. As the once putative First Lady of a future South Africa, Winnie Mandela was repudiated by members of her own organization before she was convicted by the white judiciary. In finding her guilty of the kidnap­ ping of four black youths and as accessory to their assault, the verdict of the court followed an implied act of censure by a major section of the ANC membership, which decided a week earlier by 400 votes to 196 against electing Mrs Mandela to the presidency of the ANC Women's League. This election result, an index to ANC affairs in the second year after its unbanning, was not merely a prophylactic against political contamination. It followed the open denunciation of Mrs Mandela by the most influential members and sup­ porters of the ANC within the country in February 1989, a year before its unbanning.

  • The Capacities of the People Versus a Predominant, Militarist, Ethno-Nationalist Elite: Democratisation in South Africa C
    Interface: a journal for and about social movements Article Volume 3(2): 311 - 358 (November 2011) Good, The capacities of the people The capacities of the people versus a predominant, militarist, ethno-nationalist elite: democratisation in South Africa c. 1973 - 97 Kenneth Good The international and domestic settings From around 1970 to 1990 popular democracy made notable advances in many parts of the world against entrenched dictatorships, both communist and anti- communist, from Poland and the GDR (aka Stasiland) through Portugal, Chile and the Philippines. In Poland, the Solidarity trade union achieved a membership of some ten million at its height; the Stasiland surveillance state was swept away, not just with the fall of the Berlin wall, but after a series of large demonstrations in the cities proved to the people that their rulers possessed neither efficacy nor legitimacy; in Lisbon, a “Carnation Revolution” led by the military fresh from contact with national liberation forces in Portugal’s African colonies, backed by communist and other popular tendencies at home, brought an end to a long-established, quasi-fascist dictatorship; and in the Phillipines, a successful mass uprising against the US-backed regime of Ferdinand Marcos, presented the modern idea of “people power” to the world. South Africa was part of this popular democratic upsurge too, as an advancing capitalist economy, produced new skilled black working classes possessed of the capacities to form trade unions and other community groups ready and able to push for democratisation beyond the electoral confines of the liberal / representative model. But these domestic popular aspirations had to compete for attention in the outside world with an externally based armed struggle led by the African National Congress (ANC) whose leaders were mostly in exile and in prison.

Where there is no passion the vision dies. God has given us the vision of “A Christ healed Africa for the healing of nations.” As members of the Methodist Family our challenge is to share more deeply God’s passion for healing and transformation. We believe the Holy Spirit is guiding us to continue the pilgrimage which has led us through Obedience 81 and the Journey to the New Land to the present day. We recognise the importance of the local church and rejoice in the many Circuits and Societies where life-giving mission is taking place. In trust and obedience we commit ourselves to the four imperatives for mission in our time: A deepened Spirituality as individuals and a Christian Community. Justice and Service in Church and Society. Evangelism and Church growth which build up the people of God. Empowerment and Development which give dignity and new purpose to those who have been deprived. We resolve to take intentional and sustained action to implement these imperatives in such areas as: The Healing Ministry. Deepening our understanding of African and other spiritualities.

The political and social instability in Zimbabwe has led to mass exodus of Zimbabweans in search of stability and a means to survive. Many of these Zimbabweans have sought opportunity and refuge in South Africa only to be met with hurdles that metastasized into xenophobia.
