    August 26, 1995 August 26, 1995 GANDHI, MANDELA AND THE AFRIKANERS I have followed with great interest, admiration, indeed excitement, the courageous efforts of President Nelson Mandela for a reconciliation between the Afrikaners and the African people. He has shown that his determination to build a "rainbow nation" is above transient partisan interests and calculations. I was privileged on my recent visit to South Africa to meet General Constand Viljoen, Mrs. Melanie Verwoerd and several other Afrikaners in the Government and universities. I was impressed that Mr. Mandela has been able to reach the hearts of many Afrikaners with his broad vision. That to me was one of the most encouraging developments in South Africa, now confronted with problems and challenges. Nelson Mandela's gestures of friendship and respect to Afrikaners remind me of the spirit of reconciliation preached and practised by Mahatma Gandhi in South Africa and later in India. In my work at the United Nations against apartheid for more than two decades, I was inspired by Gandhi. I did as much as anyone in my position could do to isolate the apartheid government in South Africa and assist the liberation movements. But eschewing any hatred of the Afrikaners, I counted among my friends not only Afrikaners who detested apartheid but several officials and supporters of the National Party. I was encouraged by U Thant, the Secretary- General who appointed me Principal Secretary of the Special Committee against Apartheid in 1963, and my approach was appreciated by the liberation movement and the African States with whom I was closely associated.

  • Leadership in a Time of Transition: an Analogy Between Post-Exilic Judah/Yehud and Post- Apartheid South Africa1
    128 O’Kennedy, “Leadership in a Time,” OTE 30/1 (2017): 128-150 Leadership in a Time of Transition: An Analogy between Post-exilic Judah/Yehud and Post- Apartheid South Africa1 DANIEL F. O’KENNEDY (STELLENBOSCH UNIVERSITY) ABSTRACT There are certain analogies between the post-exilic community in Judah (or Persian Yehud and post-apartheid South Africa. Accord- ing to the OT two prominent leaders took responsibility for the rebuilding of post-exilic Judah/Yehud: the governor Zerubbabel and the high priest Joshua (cf. Ezra, Nehemiah, Haggai and Zechariah). Two prominent leaders made a major contribution in post-apartheid South Africa: president Nelson Mandela as political leader and archbishop Desmond Tutu as religious leader. This article will make a comparison between these two different communities and their leaders. The article will briefly discuss the respective leaders and will focus on the following analogies: both communities had an influential political leader and a religious leader; the diarchic model of leadership lasted only a few years in Judah/Yehud and in South Africa; the concept of forgiveness played a significant role in both communities (cf. Zech 3 and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission); there was a temple building process in Judah/Yehud and a process of nation building in South Africa. KEYWORDS: Leadership; Joshua; Zerubbabel; Nelson Mandela; Desmond Tutu. A INTRODUCTION Nelson Mandela wrote the following note in 1998: Men and women, all over the world, right down the centuries, come and go. Some leave nothing behind, not even their names. It would seem that they never existed at all.2 * Article submitted: 4/11/2016; peer-reviewed: 28/11/2016; accepted: 24/01/2017.

  • Moulana Faried Esack. Testimony Before the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, East London, 18 November 1999
    Moulana Faried Esack. Testimony before the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, East London, 18 November 1999. disclaimer MOULANA DR FARIED ESACK: In the name of God the gracious, the dispenser of grace. Mr Chairman, the question of representation is not an easy one. Who do I represent? I do not believe that I as a Muslim theologian can represent the Muslim community, neither do I put it to you, can any of the "representatives" here represent their communities. Which Dutch Reform Church representative can speak for Hendrik Verwoerd and for Melanie Verwoerd? Or for Willie Lubbe and for Gerrie Lubbe? Or for Eugene Terreblanche and Sampie Terreblanche? Or for Willie Breytenbach and Breyten Breytenbach? Which Jewish Rabbi can speak for Sol Kerzner and David Bruce. And I dare say, which Muslim theologian could speak for Mohammed Bham, that human rights activist and for Ibrahim Bham, the person who is supposed to have been here and who now heads Radio Islam, the radio that denies women a voice on their stations because men get turned on by the voices of women? And so, I can only speak for myself and I speak for those Muslims who felt that they had to South Africanise their Islam and by that, to develop an empathy with the people of our land and to identify with their suffering and to give their everything to alleviate the pain and the injustice that visited our land. As the for the past, Mr Chairman, the past apartheid, the injustices are only in some ways about 1948 the Nationalist Party, the Bureau of State Security, Bantu Education, Homelands, etc, etc, but it is also about Christian triumphalism.

  • INTRODUCTION an Afrikaner's Long Walk to Reconciliation Leon Wessels
    1 INTRODUCTION An Afrikaner’s long walk to reconciliation Leon Wessels has been through changes since he rode behind Verwoerd in 1964, writes Kevin Ritchie A young man sits atop a white horse, looking resolutely into the camera. The caption tells us he’s part of an honour guard during the erstwhile National Party’s 50th anniversary celebrations in de Wildt, a small town in the old western Transvaal, in 1964. The rider is waiting to escort the then prime minister of apartheid South Africa Hendrik Verwoerd. The caption tells us that the rider would ultimately become the first NP cabinet minister to apologise publicly for apartheid to a democratic South Africa. The rider is Leon Wessels, a co-author of South Africa’s much-lauded Constitution and a two-term commissioner at South Africa’s Human Rights Commission. The picture was taken almost 43 years ago by David Goldblatt, today an internationally acclaimed photographer, then a Jewish South African shopkeeper from a mining village west of Johannesburg with what would become a burning passion for documentary photography. The image, one of 100 photographs of a cross section of Afrikaners taken throughout the 1960’s was first published in 1975 as a book entitled Some Afrikaners Photographed. The book immediately became a cause célèbre, reviled by the Afrikaner establishment and gingerly treated by the English media with even The Sunday Times refusing to run a review of it, because it challenged the official Afrikaner view of racial superiority and divine ordination. This week a new addition, Some Afrikaners Revisited, was released 32 years after the first one and 13 years into South Africa’s democracy.

    Unimagined Communities: Post-Apartheid Nation-Building, Memory and Institutional Change in South Africa (1990-2010) by Melissa Romy Levin A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Melissa Romy Levin, 2017 Unimagined Communities: Post-Apartheid Nation-Building, Memory and Institutional Change in South Africa (1990 – 2010) Melissa Romy Levin Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto 2017 ii Abstract Studies of nationalism and nation-states insist that the construction of usable pasts is central to the creation of national solidarities and the very identity of a nation. The memory/nation nexus is taken for granted in scholarship on nation-building. However, this scholarship is limited by the scant attention that is paid to how those pasts are constructed, or what the mechanisms are through which decision-making occurs. The results of this neglect are often abstracted assumptions that presume a voluntarism and coherence that most often does not exist. Repeatedly, studies focus on the products of memorialization which generates a tendency to impose consistency and statist intentionality, after the fact, on what is a contingent, messy and complicated process. In addition, studies often assume a singularity of power, located in an unfragmented state, with authoritarian capacity to produce meaning. This dissertation remedies these flaws by paying attention to the processes and procedures through which memorialization and nation-building are constructed. It focuses specifically on post-Apartheid South Africa where these processes are currently unfolding. It examines the context of South Africa’s transition, which has produced multiple continuities with and changes from Apartheid institutions.

(Verwoerd, W (1996) Viva Verwoerd? Cape Town: Human & Rousseau – Afrikaans edition). Carli Coetzee 18 Chalfont Road Oxford OX2 6RB England In the autobiography by Wilhelm Verwoerd, grandson of the architect of apartheid, issues of names and lineages are, not surprisingly, dominant. The Afrikaans edition has the title Viva Verwoerd?, the question mark calling into question the meanings of the name, and the legacy handed down from his father and grandfather. The book is written in response to the author’s father cutting off all ties after his son joined the ANC (p3). In his book, Verwoerd documents his own move from being a son of Verwoerd to being a “son of Mandela”. Each of the chapters bears a title that follows the same pattern – “from … to”. The English edition includes a foreword by Nelson Mandela, whose signature at the end of the text is reproduced here – as a seal of the author’s association with him. The book also includes a photograph showing the author meeting the President. Near the end of the book Verwoerd reports a fight between his infant children and some friends: each one wants to be Mandela in the game they are playing. It is as if the next generation have made their entry into the new world, where the name of the father is Mandela not Verwoerd. Yet Verwoerd’s decision to vote for the ANC, and his wife’s election as MP, is never dissociated from the name Verwoerd.
