Contested pasts, forgotten voices: remembering and representing slavery in South Africa A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Hull by Samuel North 201010331 BA (Hull), MA (Sheffield) 1 Abstract The transition to democracy in South Africa after 1994 saw president Nelson Mandela proclaim South Africa a ‘rainbow nation’. This in theory signalled a new respect for diverse histories, which museums and other heritage projects were expected to reflect upon. Certain elements of the past have, however, remained marginalised as new state-funded museum projects have invested in the idea of a shared past. As a means of encouraging unity in a divided country, this new national history centres on the idea of a nation which united against apartheid, overcame it, and now enjoys a glorious present as a result. Slavery and colonialism are amongst the histories which have not been discussed openly. This thesis considers how slavery and its memory have functioned in relation to post-apartheid initiatives of transformation both in terms of museums and heritage projects, and broader society. Through use of qualitative interviews, it scopes the responses of museologists, policy makers, and heritage activists to the questions and demands posed by post-apartheid society. These questions are particularly pertinent currently given that new generations of activists are increasingly calling for ‘decolonisation’ as a means of reforming a society which they claim has not delivered the changes promised in the immediate post-1994 period. Such claims by necessity require discussion of the deeply-ingrained injustices which colonialism and slavery set in motion. Indeed, it is suggested that in post-apartheid South Africa it is problematic to commemorate historical slavery without reference to these often visible legacies. The thesis argues that the different concepts of historical slavery held by different groups results in contestations when the subject rememerges in public discourse. These contestations are variously shaped by the specific ways slavery has been marginalised over time in South Africa, and by the demands of the present. 2 Contents List of acronyms ................................................................................................................................ 4 A note on terminology ..................................................................................................................... 6 List of figures and maps .................................................................................................................... 7 Acknowledgements .......................................................................................................................... 9 Introduction .................................................................................................................................... 11 Literature Review .............................................................................................................. 25 Methodology: a word on positionality .............................................................................. 53 Chapter One: Remembering many atrocities: slavery, museums, and the South African metanarrative ................................................................................................................................. 65 Chapter Two: ‘Our communities are still enslaved’: heritage, slavery, and coloured identity in the Western Cape post-apartheid ...................................................................................................... 115 Chapter Three: Presenting the past, creating locality: Cape slavery in the local and community museum ....................................................................................................................................... 157 Chapter Four: Beauty is only skin deep: memorialising slavery in contemporary Cape Town .... 213 Chapter Five: Slavery sells?

It is however virtually impossible to write about contemporary South Africa without referring to the racial categories which were used to define everyday life by the apartheid state. Indeed, the labels black, white, and coloured remain common currency in the country today, together with the various sub-categories which were used to control people from colonial times until (theoretically) 1994. This thesis reproduces racial categories without quotation marks, using lower case spellings except for in situations where it would be grammatically incorrect to do so (see African, Indian). It acknowledges that the use of such terms can cover up some of the contestations and pain which they carry, and intends to evoke them in as academic a sense as is possible. Excluding the methods section where reflexivity is fundamental, this thesis is written in the third person. This is not to suggest that reflexivity is irrelevant in the rest of the thesis, but merely to highlight the necessity of associating oneself with one’s own work and train of thought when reflecting on practices adopted. 6 List of figures and maps Figure 1.1 ‘The Slave Lodge: past, present, future’, Slave Lodge, Cape Town, 2015.

    RUTGERS UNIVERSITY Honors Program in Non-American History: Race and Colonialism in Africa (21:510:396) Fall 2016 Class Time/Location: T/R 11:30 am-12:50 pm, Hill 106 Professor: Dr. Habtamu Tegegne Office: Conklin Hall, 329 Office Hours: By Appointment Email: [email protected] Course Description “Race and Colonialism” is a history of South Africa from the seventeenth through twentieth centuries emphasizing social, politicl, and economic change. It pays particular attention to colonial encounter, white political hegemony, land alienation, African nationalism, and democratization. Two major themes and concerns inform History 396—race and colonialism and the relations between the two. The course sees South African history as dominated by European colonial powers, by the capitalist economy, which originated in the West, and by racial ideology, which has its origin in Western cultural and intellectual traditions. It traces the impact of European colonial domination through the era of the formal racial regime of apartheid to the post-apartheid era, in which dominance is primarily economic and cultural. The course will explore how colonialism and the idea of race created institutions, which, in turn, affect the relationships between colonists and indigenous peoples, between classes and other social groups within south Africa, and between individuals. It treats colonialism and race, by and large, as economic and political phenomena with consequent social and cultural effects. The course views both colonialism and race as inherently dynamic and therefore emphasizes both change and development. History 396 equally sees South African history as characterized by African resistance to colonial and racial domination and by the interaction between African and European cultures.
  • Transforming the Iziko Bo-Kaap Museum Helene Vollgraaff 1

    Transforming the Iziko Bo-Kaap Museum Helene Vollgraaff 1

    Transforming the Iziko Bo-Kaap Museum Helene Vollgraaff 1 Introduction The Bo-Kaap Museum, managed by Iziko Museums of Cape Town 2, was established in 1978 as a house museum showing the lifestyle of a typical “Cape Malay” family of the 19 th century. The well-known University of Cape Town Orientalist, Dr. I.D. du Plessis, was the driving force behind the establishment of the museum. From the start, the Bo-Kaap Museum was heavily criticized for its Orientalist approach. In true I.D. du Plessis style, Cape Muslims were depicted as a separate cultural group with an exotic and charming lifestyle that seperated them from the rest of local society. The exhibitions and programmes of the museum tended to focus on Islam as an all-consuming identity and emphasized customs that distinguished Cape Muslims from other religious and cultural groups in Cape Town. The result was a skewed representation that did not do justice to the diversity within the Cape Muslim community and was silent about aspects of integration between the Muslim and broader Cape Town communities. 3 In 2003, Iziko Museums launched a project to redevelop the Bo-Kaap Museum as a social history museum with Islam at the Cape and the history of the Bo-Kaap as its main themes. This approach allowed the museum to challenge its own Orientalist roots and to introduce exhibitions dealing with contemporary issues. As an interim measure, Iziko developed a series of small temporary exhibitions and public programmes that together signaled Iziko Museum’s intent to change the content and style of the museum.

    An Exhibition of South African Ceramics at Iziko Museums Article by Esther Esymol

    Reflections on Fired – An Exhibition of South African Ceramics at Iziko Museums Article by Esther Esymol Abstract An exhibition dedicated to the history and development of South African ceramics, Fired, was on show at the Castle of Good Hope in Cape Town, South Africa, from 25th February 2012 until its temporary closure on 28th January 2015. Fired is due to reopen early 2016. The exhibition was created from the rich array of ceramics held in the permanent collections of Iziko Museums of South Africa. Iziko was formed in 1998 when various Cape Town based museums, having formerly functioned separately, were amalgamated into one organizational structure. Fired was created to celebrate the artistry of South African ceramists, showcasing works in clay created for domestic, ceremonial or decorative purposes, dating from the archaeological past to the present. This article reflects on the curatorial and design approaches to Fired, and the various themes which informed the exhibition. Reference is also made to the formation of the Iziko ceramics collections, and the ways in which Fired as an exhibition departed from ceramics displays previously presented in the museums that made up the Iziko group. Key words ceramics, studio pottery, production pottery, Community Economic Development (CED) potteries, museums Introduction Fired – an Exhibition of South African Ceramics celebrated South Africa’s rich and diverse legacy of ceramic making. The exhibition showcased a selection of about two hundred ceramic works, including some of the earliest indigenous pottery made in South Africa, going back some two thousand years, through to work produced by contemporary South African ceramists. The works were drawn mainly from the Social History Collections department of Iziko Museums of South Africa.1 Design and curatorial approaches Fired was exhibited within an evocative space in the Castle, with arched ceilings and columns and presented in two large elongated chambers (Fig.1).

    The Debate on the Mfecane That Erupted Following the Publication In

    A TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT? NINETEENTH-CENTURY CONTESTS FOR LAND IN SOUTH AFRICA‘S CALEDON VALLEY AND THE INVENTION OF THE MFECANE ABSTRACT: The unresolved debate on the mfecane in Southern African history has been marked by general acceptance of the proposition that large scale loss of life and disruption of settled society was experienced across the whole region. Attempts to quantify either the violence or mortality have been stymied by a lack of evidence. What apparently reliable evidence does exist describes small districts, most notably the Caledon Valley. In contrast to Julian Cobbing, who called the mfecane an alibi for colonial-sponsored violence, this article argues that much documentation of conflict in the Caledon region consisted of various ‗alibis‘ for African land seizures and claims in the 1840s and ‗50s. KEY WORDS: pre-colonial, mfecane, Lesotho, South Africa, nineteenth- century, warfare, land A hotly contested issue in the debate on South Africa‘s mfecane which enlivened the pages of this journal a decade ago was the charge that colonial historians invented the concept as part of a continuing campaign to absolve settler capitalism from responsibility for violent convulsions in South- 1 Eastern Africa in the first half of the nineteenth century.i This article takes a different tack by arguing that African struggles for land and power in the period 1833-54 played a decisive role in developing the mfecane concept. The self-serving narratives devised by African rivals and their missionary clients in and around the emerging kingdom of Lesotho set the pattern for future accounts and were responsible for introducing the word lifaqane into historical discourse long before the word mfecane first appeared in print.

C.Jackson a , L.Mofutsanyanaa,, N.Mlungwana a aSouth African Heritage Resources Agency, 111 Harrington Street Cape Town 8000, South Africa - [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Commission II, WG II/8 KEY WORDS: Digital Inventories, Heritage Management, South Africa, SAHRIS, Risk Analysis ABSTRACT: The management of heritage resources within the South African context is governed by the National Heritage Resources Act, act 25 of 1999 (NHRA). This legislation calls for an integrated system of heritage management that allows for the good governance of heritage across the three tiers of government. The South African Heritage Resources Agency (SAHRA), as the national body responsible for heritage management, is mandated to compile and maintain an inventory of the national estate. The South African Heritage Resources Information System (SAHRIS) was designed to facilitate this mandate as well as provide a management platform through which the three-tiers of governance can be integrated. This vision of integrated management is however predicated on the implementation of the three-tier system of heritage management, a system which to date has not been fully implemented, with financial and human resource constraints being present at all levels. In the absence of the full implementation of this system and the limited resources available to heritage authorities, we argue that a risk based approach to heritage management will allow under resourced heritage authorities in South Africa to prioritise management actions and ensure mitigations are in place for at risk heritage resources.
