  • Human Rights Violations in Apartheid South Africa
    southern africa PERSPECTIVE, No. 1/83 HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS IN APARTHEID SOUTH AFRICA In 1982, the South African Government bought space in the Wall Street Journal for 13 ads at $24,000 each. A similar series in the Washington Post cost between $5,200 and $7,200 an ad. All ads showed blacks and whites together in settings implying full equality, as lawyers, students, sportsmen. The ads are part of a sophisticated prop aganda effort which is pushing "the changing face of South Africa." What is not changing in South Africa is the white minority government's commit ment to apartheid. This brief survey of human rights violations demonstrates that what is changing is only the particular methods employed to continue the policy of apartheid. The overwhelming majority of South Africa's people are victims of a racist system which inflicts deprivation, fear and oppression. Those who protest face detention, torture, imprisonment and even death. The Africa Fund (associated with the American Committee on Africa) 198 Broadway 9 New York, NY 10038 POLITICAL CONTROL In South Africa the ruling parliament is elected solely by white voters. Blacks*, who outnumber whites by five to one, are completely disenfranchised. Under new constitutional proposals for a tri cameral parliament, those designated as Coloureds and Indians will be given separate institutions with the whites retaining the monopoly of power. The white chamber will have the largest number of members and will dominate the process of electing a president who will have wide-ranging executive power. The African majority remains totally excluded from this new structure.

  • The Anglo-Boer War, a Welsh Hospital in South Africa
    24/05/2015 9:00 AM http://samilitaryhistory.org/vol123sw.html The South African Military History Society Die Suid-Afrikaanse Krygshistoriese Vereniging Military History Journal Vol 12 No 3 - June 2002 THE ANGLO-BOER WAR A WELSH HOSPITAL IN SOUTH AFRICA SA Watt, Pietermaritzburg The Welsh Hospital was one of a number of private initiatives in the medical services that were accepted and used by the British Government during the Anglo Boer War (1899-1902). It was organised by Professor Alfred W Hughes, assisted by a committee elected from the men and women of Wales. Funds amounting to £12 000 were acquired by subscription from the citizens of Wales and Welshmen residing outside the country. According to a Report by the Central British Red Cross Committee on the Voluntary Organisations in the Aid of the Sick and Wounded during the South African War, the personnel originally comprised three senior surgeons, two assistant surgeons, eight medical students and dressers, ten nursing sisters, two maids, 48 orderlies, cooks, and stretcher bearers. The medal roll lists 44 staff (W A Morgan, 1975, p 12). With them was the matron, Marion Lloyd. One of the senior surgeons was Professor Thomas Jones, who was a professor of surgery at Owen's College, Manchester, England (Report by the CBRCC, 1902; British Medical Journal, p 250). The personnel and equipment under the command of Major T W Cockerill embarked from Southampton on the Canada, 14 April 1900. The passage and freight was provided by the government. The stores, subsequently sent out, were shipped at the expense of the organisers.

  • Death by Smallpox in 18Th and 19Th C. South Africa
    Anistoriton Journal, vol. 11 (2007) Essay Section Death by smallpox investigating the relationship between anaemia and viruses in 18th and 19th century South Africa Tanya R. Peckmann, Ph.D. Saint Mary's University, Canada The historical record combined with the presence of large numbers of individuals exhibiting skeletal responses to anaemia (porotic hyperostosis and cribra orbitalia; PH and CO) are the main reasons for investigating the presence of smallpox in three South African communities, Griqua, Khoe, and ‘Black’ African, during the 18th and 19th centuries. The smallpox virus (variola) raged throughout South Africa every twenty or thirty years during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and was responsible for the destruction of entire communities. It has an 80 to 90 per cent fatality rate among non-immune populations (Aufderheide & Rodríguez-Martín 1998; Young 1998) and all ages are susceptible. The variola virus can only survive in densely populated areas and therefore sedentary communities, such as those present in agricultural and pastoral based societies, are more susceptible to acquiring the disease. Smallpox may remodel bone in the form of osteomyelitis variolosa (‘smallpox arthritis’) (Aufderheide & Rodríguez-Martín 1998; Jackes 1983; Ortner & Putschar 1985) which causes the reduction of longitudinal bone growth (Jackes 1983). However, since smallpox only remodels bone in very few individuals and solely in children the only method for unconditionally determining the presence of the smallpox virus in a skeletal population is by performing DNA and PCR analyses. Survival from smallpox affords the individual natural immunity for the remainder of their life. The virus is undetectable in a smallpox survivor as they will possess the antibodies for the disease and therefore will have gained natural immunity for the remainder of his or her life.

  • South Africa: Afrikaans Film and the Imagined Boundaries of Afrikanerdom
    A new laager for a “new” South Africa: Afrikaans film and the imagined boundaries of Afrikanerdom Adriaan Stefanus Steyn Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Social Anthropology in the faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Dr Bernard Dubbeld Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology December 2016 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. December 2016 Copyright © 2016 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract The Afrikaans film industry came into existence in 1916, with the commercial release of De Voortrekkers (Shaw), and, after 1948, flourished under the guardianship of the National Party. South Africa’s democratic transition, however, seemed to announce the death of the Afrikaans film. In 1998, the industry entered a nine-year slump during which not a single Afrikaans film was released on the commercial circuit. Yet, in 2007, the industry was revived and has been expanding rapidly ever since. This study is an attempt to explain the Afrikaans film industry’s recent success and also to consider some of its consequences. To do this, I situate the Afrikaans film industry within a larger – and equally flourishing – Afrikaans culture industry.

  • Palaeontological Impact Assessment May Be Significantly Enhanced Through Field Assessment by a Professional Palaeontologist
    PALAEONTOLOGICAL SPECIALIST STUDY: COMBINED DESKTOP & FIELD-BASED ASSESSMENT Four proposed solar PV projects on Farm Visserspan No. 40 near Dealesville, Tokologo Local Municipality, Free State Province John E. Almond PhD (Cantab.) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010, RSA naturaviva@universe.co.za January 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Ventura Renewable Energy (Pty) Ltd is proposing to develop up to four solar PV facilities, each of up to 100 MW generation capacity, on the farm Visserspan No. 40, c. 10 km northwest of Dealesville and 68 km northwest of Bloemfontein, in the Tokologo Local Municipality, Free State Province. Substantial direct impacts on fresh, potentially-fossiliferous Tierberg Formation (Ecca Group, Karoo Supergroup) bedrocks during the construction phase of the proposed PV solar projects are considered unlikely. The mapped outcrop areas of the Tierberg Formation within the PV solar project areas are small while the mudocks here are likely to be weathered near-surface and mantled by thick superficial deposits such as calcrete. In this region, the near-surface Ecca Group bedrocks are very often extensively disrupted and veined by Quaternary calcrete as well as baked by dolerite intrusions, compromising their palaeontological sensitivity. Potentially fossiliferous Pleistocene alluvial or spring deposits were not encountered in the study area, while pan and associated dune sediments here lie largely – but not exclusively - outside the development footprint. The calcrete hardpans encountered within the study area are of low palaeontological sensitivity. The only fossil remains recorded during the field survey comprise a few small blocks of petrified fossil wood – reworked from Tierberg bedrocks - among surface gravels around the margins of a pan in the SE corner of Visserspan No.
