  • Mandela Script Second Draft Revised (2)
    Untitled Mandela Script (aka "The Human Factor") by ANTHONY PECKHAM (Based on material by JOHN CARLIN) Revelations Entertainment Second Draft Mace Neufeld Productions 5/22/07 "Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, the power to unite people that little else has ... It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers." Nelson Mandela Untitled Mandela Script EXT. ALL-WHITE HIGH SCHOOL, WESTERN CAPE - DAY A big, rich, powerhouse all-white high school located near the freeway into Cape Town. The RUGBY FIELDS are immaculate. FIFTEEN YEAR OLD BOYS in striped rugby jerseys train with total intensity under the critical eye of the COACH. Right ACROSS THE BOUNDARY FENCE from the rugby fields is an area of WASTE LAND leading up to the freeway. There, BLACK AND “COLORED” (MIXED-RACE) BOYS of the same age play a loose game of soccer with a tennis ball. Most of them have bare feet and threadbare, dirty clothes, most of them are noticeably smaller and skinnier than the white boys. Two cultures, separated by more than the high boundary fence. SUPER TITLE: SOUTH AFRICA, FEBRUARY 11, 1990 A COMMOTION ON THE FREEWAY intrudes on the soccer game. Horns honking, cars pull over onto the shoulder, people jump out. EXT. FREEWAY - DAY Lead by police motorbikes, then patrol cars, a white Mercedes approaches, heading towards Cape Town. Whoever is in the Mercedes has stopped traffic. EXT. ALL-WHITE HIGH SCHOOL, WESTERN CAPE - DAY The soccer players abandon their game and run for the freeway, whistling and shouting.

  • How Mandela Inspired Pienaar and Springboks to Conquer the World We Talked About All Things and Not Just the World Cup
    18 Established 1961 Sports Tuesday, June 23, 2020 Photo of the day Hamilton marches in anti-racism protest LONDON: Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton marched in the latest anti-racism protest in London on Sunday, describing the experience as “really moving”. The 35-year-old Hamilton, the only black driver in F1, joined the protests which have become com- mon since the death of George Floyd in the United States last month. “Went down to Hyde Park today for the peace- ful protest and I was so proud to see in person so many people of all races and backgrounds sup- porting this movement,” Hamilton wrote on Instagram. “I was proud to be out there acknowl- edging and supporting the Black Lives Matter movement, and my black heritage. “I was also happy to see so many white sup- porters out there in the name of equality for all. It was really moving. I’m feeling extremely positive that change will come, but we cannot stop now. Keep pushing.” Hamilton also posted a photograph of himself holding up a Black Lives Matter sign while his T-shirt slogan said: ‘Black is a vibe’. The six-time world champion also wore a yel- low scarf around his face. Earlier, Hamilton had penned an article for Britain’s Sunday Times newspaper in which he said he was launching his own diversity body to attract more black youngsters into motor racing, insisting the “time for token gestures is over”. Hamilton, a powerful and influential voice, said he was teaming up with Britain’s Royal Academy of Engineering to launch The Hamilton Commission.

  • Saint Or Comrade: Representations of Nelson Mandela in Film
    ‘Magic Negro’, Saint or Comrade: Representations of Nelson Mandela in Film Roger Bromley “In the late 1980s, Nelson Mandela stood alone against the apartheid state.” This comment taken from the DVD Box set cover of Nelson Mandela: From Freedom to History summarises the approach taken by many of the cinematic and televisual representations of Mandela. Linked with this is a statement by the CEO of Marriott which speaks of Mandela as “an individual who changed the arc of history through his or her singular contribution, not as a function of the era or the movement but because of what they did alone.” Together, these descriptions attempt to appropriate Mandela for a sanitised version of western individualism which sees him variously as a liberal icon, saintly hero, or the celebrity one-off “magic negro”, in Okwongo’s damning phrase taken from his magisterial valedictory piece “Mandela will never, ever be your minstrel” (Okwongo 2013). In the process, Mandela’s role in the anti-apartheid struggle is de-contextualised, mystified, and effectively depoliticised, a cardboard cut- out severed from his era and the ‘movement’, displaced from the militancy of his early revolutionary commitment and long-term embeddedness in a complex political community, which existed both in South Africa itself and in exile overseas. It is well known that there were elements of choreography, scripting and performance in the public persona of Mandela, the product of a deliberately crafted strategy developed by the ANC leadership abroad in conjunction with the man himself. How far this is Saggi/Ensayos/Essais/Essays 40 N. 12 – 11/2014 reflected in the various filmic versions of his life will be one of the issues addressed.

  • Jarred Meyer Overcomes a Broken Leg to Achieve a Boyhood Dream
    JARRED MEYER OVERCOMES A BROKEN LEG TO ACHIEVE A BOYHOOD DREAM Jarred Meyer is a rare commodity in South African football and has attracted a lot of attention since joining PSL side Jomo Cosmos. That’s because Meyer is one of a few white players currently playing in South Africa’s professional football league. Recent years have seen a dearth in white footballing talent and many experts and football pundits have been scratching their heads trying to figure out why this talent is not coming through the ranks anymore compared to previous years where we had the likes of Mark Fish, Neil Tovey, Eric Tinkler, Andrew Tucker to name but a few. No one has been able to find the answer to this million dollar question but 23 year-old Jarred Meyer is perhaps the pioneer of the resurgence. Jarred has shown great resolve and courage to overcome a broken leg and to finally achieve his dream of playing professional football, a dream that he has achieved through the Nedbank Cup Ke Yona Team Search. “I started at Bloemfontein Celtic with the under 17’s and then under 19’s but I could not break into the first team, so I went to play in the Third Division and that’s where I was spotted by the then Free State Stars coach Steve Komphela who is now at Kaizer Chiefs.” Meyer finally believed that his dream had come true after signing a pre-contract with Ealla Koto but his joy was short-lived when a horrendous tackle at training left him with a broken leg and he was eventually released by Free State Stars.

The day before, the team was gathered at Silvermine, an old militarybase inside a mountainous nature preserve on the Cape Peninsula,where they had established a temporary training camp. On the easternhalf of the peninsula's narrow waist, Silvermine was one of the mostbeautiful spots in South Africa. Looking north, you saw the totemicmonolith of Table Mountain. Looking south, you saw the rockyextremity where the Indian and Atlantic oceans met.
