All Animals Are Equal but Some Are More Equal Than Others
ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS George Orwell’s novel “Animal Farm” gave birth to the oft-repeated affirmation that equality is an admirable aspiration but that it is virtually unattainable. Some are more equal than others, it was implied. Equality before the law as enshrined in the South African constitution is rarely achieved when a political or racial component is involved. Under the ANC these aspects take on a trajectory of their own and justice is often the victim of the political clash of civilizations that is acted out every day in post-apartheid South Africa. For the past 27 years of ANC rule, hundreds of thousands of criminals have systematically plundered South Africa’s infrastructure with malice and purpose. No definitive action to curb this anarchy has emanated from government. We have been occasionally told that “several arrests have been made” and then we hear nothing more. Thousands if not millions of miscreants never reached the courts, let alone became the subject of a police docket. If a suspect actually did appear in court, there was little if any media flurry surrounding the person’s appearance. Many of these cases simply died on the altar of the government’s justice system’s bias, ineptitude and/or negligence. Compare this scenario to the recent rumpus at a Senekal, Free State court where a group of farmers gathered to express their rage and frustration at yet another gruesome farm murder. A young farm manager Brendin Horner (22) was attacked by a group of cattle thieves, beaten to a pulp, stabbed repeatedly and his body was tied to a fence pole. -

Window to the Soul of Africa… Journey of a Lifetime
Window to the Soul of Africa… Journey of a lifetime Pretoria to Cape Town Route Description The Blue Train’s most popular route is between Pretoria and Cape Town (in either direction) – a 1,600 kilometres (994 miles) journey through some of South Africa’s most diverse and spectacular scenery – a “window to the soul of Africa”. If heading southbound, the adventure starts in Pretoria which is a 30-mile drive away from Johannesburg’s O.R. Tambo International Airport. Pretoria is one of South Africa’s three capital cities (legislative capital) and is affectionately known as the “Jacaranda city” thanks to the beautiful streets lined with purple flowers between September and November. This is usually when local university students write exams and it’s a local belief that if a flower falls on your head it’s good luck. The union buildings, built in 1913, are South Africa’s official seat of power and it’s where all new presidents, including Nelson Mandela in 1994, are sworn into office. The 9m high bronze statue of Madiba in the gardens is the tallest statue of Mandela in the world and a very popular “selfie” spot. The statue of him opening his arms to embrace the Rainbow Nation was unveiled on the Day of Reconciliation (16 December), bringing the official 10-day mourning period of Mandela’s death to a close in 2013. Other tourist spots include the National Zoological Gardens, Church Square, Freedom Park Heritage Site and Museum, the Botanical gardens and many historical sites and museums. Blue Train guests tend to spend the night before travel in either Pretoria or Johannesburg but thanks to the new 2019 late afternoon departure time, a night is Gauteng is not essential, unless you wish to explore this buzzing city. -
Music and Militarisation During the Period of the South African Border War (1966-1989): Perspectives from Paratus
Music and Militarisation during the period of the South African Border War (1966-1989): Perspectives from Paratus Martha Susanna de Jongh Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Professor Stephanus Muller Co-supervisor: Professor Ian van der Waag December 2020 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (unless 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. Date: 29 July 2020 Copyright © 2020 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract In the absence of literature of the kind, this study addresses the role of music in militarising South African society during the time of the South African Border War (1966-1989). The War on the border between Namibia and Angola took place against the backdrop of the Cold War, during which the apartheid South African government believed that it had to protect the last remnants of Western civilization on the African continent against the communist onslaught. Civilians were made aware of this perceived threat through various civilian and military channels, which included the media, education and the private business sector. The involvement of these civilian sectors in the military resulted in the increasing militarisation of South African society through the blurring of boundaries between the civilian and the military. -
