Ndhlovu, Cde. S. Kachingwe, Cde. A. Sikhosana7luaAr,' m.-W VOL.- 9R NO- 2 Editorial Challenges for the youth The youth of Zimbabwe today face many many challenges, and problems. They need all the strength they can muster in order to face those challenges, and to surmount the problems. But, the greatest challenge of all is that they will be the political, economic, and cultural leaders of our country in the 21 st century which is just around the comer. Within three short years we will be in a new century, a new millennium. In that millennium, the destiny of our people will be in the hands of the present generation of youth. They are seeing the end of a century that has been dominated by violence in two world wars and numerous limited wars. They have also seen a century dominated by colonialism and racism. But, they have also seen the golden pages of the history of resistance and struggle for freedom and independence written by the blood of their own parents and patriots. Zimbabwe is independent for ever. Problems and conflicts may arise, mistakes made, but our sovereignty and independence as a nation can never be taken away from us again. The 21st February Movement reminds us of the burden that history has placed on the shoulders of the Zimbabwean youth today: To defend the gains that were made by our people in this century. The youth of today need large reserves of moral courage to be able to face the problems they will come accross. The most serious one is the AIDS epidemic which is taking away many of the young men and women at the prime of their lives. The hope is that researchers will find medical cures in due course, but the real cure is the maintenance of high moral standards in our society. Our own traditional societies were an example of the accepted behaviour among the youth of both sexes. The problems of the AIDS epidemic have been -aggravated by deepening poverty and social deprivation, especially in the years of very severe droughts. It is not easy to come up with one solution to the many socio-economic problems facing the youth today. But, the one essential tool that all youth must have is eduation. It must be the type of education that gives one skills to work and earn a living in a rapidly changing society such as ours. From the very first day of independence, the President and First Secretary, Comrade R.G. Mugabe, insisted that every Zimbabwean child of school-going age must go to school. He knew that education was indispensable in the new Zimbabwe. Developed and industrialised countries are still giving high priority to the education of their citizens. We need it even more in order to put our feet on the first rungs of the ladder of development In the economic field, the challenges to the African continent as a whole, are also formidable. Our region of Southern Africa is now prone to droughts, and certain parts are threatened with desertification. Frequent world recessions, and soaring inflation, put very heavy burdens on our economies. Our goods are fetching less and less money on the money markets, while services are becoming more expensive. Again, there is no one solution to these problems. But, a realistic strategy for breaking out of this vicious circle of poverty, should include rapid industrialisation, and building the African economic community on the basis of the Abuja Treaty. Therefore, the youth should acquire skills in the hard sciences to prepare them for a role in industrial production. But, they should also be pan-Africanists who look on other Africans as their brothers and sisters. if we want to increase trade between African states, we must be pan-Africanists. Although there are many problems facing our society and our country, we are entering the new millennium with one decisive advantage of political power in our hands. Having that power is important for the very existence and survival of any nation. We now have the power to shape our economy, and our structures of both local and central government as we see fit. The democratic system that we have initiated and maintained over the last 17 years ensures that leaders are accountable to the people, and no arbitrary action can be taken against any person. The Bill of Rights is enshrined in the constitution, the rule of law maintained, and pluralism is the norm. The youth of today must internalise the social values that uphold these institutions, and they

  • Dealing with the Crisis in Zimbabwe: the Role of Economics, Diplomacy, and Regionalism
    SMALL WARS JOURNAL smallwarsjournal.com Dealing with the Crisis in Zimbabwe: The Role of Economics, Diplomacy, and Regionalism Logan Cox and David A. Anderson Introduction Zimbabwe (formerly known as Rhodesia) shares a history common to most of Africa: years of colonization by a European power, followed by a war for independence and subsequent autocratic rule by a leader in that fight for independence. Zimbabwe is, however, unique in that it was once the most diverse and promising economy on the continent. In spite of its historical potential, today Zimbabwe ranks third worst in the world in “Indicators of Instability” leading the world in Human Flight, Uneven Development, and Economy, while ranking high in each of the remaining eight categories tracked (see figure below)1. Zimbabwe is experiencing a “brain drain” with the emigration of doctors, engineers, and agricultural experts, the professionals that are crucial to revitalizing the Zimbabwean economy2. If this was not enough, 2008 inflation was running at an annual rate of 231 million percent, with 80% of the population lives below the poverty line.3 Figure 1: Source: http://www.foreignpolicy.com/story/cms.php?story_id=4350&page=0 1 Foreign Policy, “The Failed States Index 2008”, http://www.foreignpolicy.com/story/cms.php?story_id=4350&page=0, (accessed August 29, 2008). 2 The Fund for Peace, “Zimbabwe 2007.” The Fund for Peace. http://www.fundforpeace.org/web/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=280&Itemid=432 (accessed September 30, 2008). 3 BBC News, “Zimbabwean bank issues new notes,” British Broadcasting Company. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7642046.stm (accessed October 3, 2008).

  • Interview with Chas W. Freeman Jr
    Library of Congress Interview with Chas W. Freeman Jr. The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project AMBASSADOR CHAS W. FREEMAN, JR. Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: April 14, 1995 Copyright 1998 ADST Q: Can you tell me a bit about your background, when and where you were born and then something about your family. FREEMAN: Sure. I go by Chas W. Freeman, Jr. And the reason for that is, first of all, Chas is an old abbreviation for Charles in my family. But George Bush, when he sent me to Saudi Arabia as ambassador, knew me as Chas, and somehow that ended up on the commissioning certificate. So, since I've never been called Charles, I simply decided that that was a better solution. Legally, I'm still Charles, but for all other purposes, I'm Chas. My background. I'm a typical product of centuries of American miscegenation. The Freemans came to this country in 1621. And there is a family tradition (which may or may not be correct) that the reason for this is recorded in a famous English law case called Freeman vs. Freeman, in which, as I recall, my putative ancestor was a rake and a ne'er- do-well in London (the family was originally from Devon), and was persuaded by a wealthy uncle, having lost all his own money in gambling and drinking, that he should marry a very ugly, overage young lady who was the ward of this uncle. Being a scoundrel, he naturally insisted on a written contract.

  • Rhodesiana Volume 37
    THOMAS MEIKLE, 1862-1939 The founder of the Meikle Organisation sailed from Scotland with his parents in 1869. The family settled in Natal where Thomas and his brothers John and Stewart gained their first farming ex­ perience. In 1892 the three brothers set off for Rhodesia with eight ox- wagons. Three months later they had completed the 700 mile trek to Fort Victoria. Here they opened a store made of whisky cases and roofed over with the tarpaulins that had covered their wagons. Progress was at first slow, nevertheless, branches were opened in Salisbury in 1893, Bulawayo and Gwelo in 1894, and in Umtali in 1897. From these small beginnings a vast network of stores, hotels, farms, mines and auxilliary undertakings was built up. These ventures culminated in the formation of the Thomas Meikle Trust and Investment Company in 1933. The success of these many enterprises was mainly due to Thomas Meikle's foresight and his business acumen, coupled with his ability to judge character and gather around him a loyal and efficient staff. His great pioneering spirit lives on: today the Meikle Organisation is still playing an important part in the development of Rhodesia. THOMAS MEIKLE TRUST AND INVESTMENT CO. (PVT.) LIMITED. Travel Centre Stanley Avenue P.O. Box 3598 Salisbury Charter House, at the corner of Jameson Avenue and Kings Crescent, was opened in 1958. The name Charter House was given by The British South Africa Company to its administrative offices. It is now the headquarters of Anglo American Corporation in Rhodesia. Altogether there have been seven Charter Houses in Rhodesia, of which two remain ; one in Salisbury and one in Bulawayo.

ABSTRACT My thesis offers an examination of U.S. policy towards Rhodesia as viewed through the lens of the respective Presidential administrations. The aim of my research is to demonstrate the changing American perspective on the Rhodesian question and how this directly affected the ultimate emergence of an independent Zimbabwe. I discuss the transformation in U.S. policy from the cautious approach of the Johnson White House, the shift towards ‘white Africa’ during the Nixon years as anti-communism and economic interests took centre stage and the subsequent attempt of the Ford Administration to achieve a peace settlement to prevent further communist expansion into southern Africa. Finally, I will analyse the critical role played by President Carter in bringing an end to UDI.

Alexander Green* December 9, 2016 v1.2 Abstract: In 1976, United States Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger conducted a series of intricate, multiparty negotiations in Southern Africa to persuade white Rhodesian leader Ian Smith to accede to black majority rule. Conducted near the end of President Gerald Ford’s term in office, against substantial U.S. domestic opposition, Kissinger’s efforts culminated in Smith’s public announcement that he would accept majority rule within two years. This set the stage for the later Lancaster House negotiations which resulted in the actual transition to black majority rule. The account in this working paper carefully describes—but does not analyze nor draw lessons from —these challenging negotiations. Forthcoming papers will provide analysis and derive general insights from Kissinger’s negotiations to end white minority rule in Rhodesia.

  • The Goffal Speaks: Coloured Ideology and the Perpetuation of a Category in Post-Colonial Zimbabwe
    The Goffal Speaks: Coloured Ideology and the Perpetuation of a Category in Post-Colonial Zimbabwe By Kelly M. Nims Submitted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 ©2013 Kelly M. Nims All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Goffal Speaks: Coloured Ideology and the Perpetuation of a Category in Post-Colonial Zimbabwe Kelly M. Nims Significant changes for the Coloured community1 have occurred and continue to occur as a result of an ever-changing political landscape in Zimbabwe. These changes reveal a group2 consciousness or ideology that often translates into daily practices of methods of inclusion and exclusion based on ethnic affiliation and racial organization. Many Coloureds have historically denied the reality of the boundaries that have separated them from whites or Europeans, and more recently, have reinforced the boundaries that have separated them from black Africans. Zimbabwe at Independence was the poster child for progress and change on the African continent. It was a place where, “the wrongs of the past [would] stand forgiven and forgotten… [and] oppression and racism were inequalities that [would] never find scope in the political and social system.”3 Yet thirty years later, amid growing disillusionment over promises of a unified Zimbabwe, a destitute economy, and the perpetuation of racial inequality and oppression, there is an effort among Coloureds themselves to reify the Coloured category4. The categorization of people tends to develop in the course of specific histories of particular places. Local nuances color this. In Southern Africa, following the victory of the South African National Party (NP) in 1948, the term “community” was used as a euphemism for racial exclusion.

The white minority numbers less than 280,000 in a population of over 6 million, but it is a minority determined to maintain its power and privilege as long as possible. History, for the white minority, begins with the aggressive expansionism of Cecil Rhodes. His central role in the work of British colonial occupation at the end of the 19th century is reflected in the naming of both Northern Rhodesia (now independent Zambia) and Southern Rhodesia in his honor. The attitude of most white settlers toward African history prior to white occupation is accurately summed up by the white Rhodesian who told a New York Times reporter: "The African has no past, very little present without white or yellow help, and no future of his own." Rhodesian settlers use this argument to justify the history of white minority rule, to explain the present repression of Africans and to project continued white rule into the future.
