Segregation -- whether official or unofficial -- was
long practiced in South Africa. After Union this was
certainly the case. The most pronounced form of
discrimination of course was in who could and could't
purchase land. If we look at segregation of public
amenities this was also very common. Even in the Cape which
had a non-racial franchise (in principle) the courts had
upheld segregation of public schooling (basically pandered
to white public opinion). A number of court cases up to the
1930s had the effect of rolling this back somewhat. However,
in the 1930s the Appeal Court decided a case which upheld
the principle of separate but equal. What this meant
was that segregation could take place if (a) parliament
approved it (since parliament was sovereign) or (b) if
equal facilties were provided. However, bodies such
as municipalities were not allowed to segregate unless they
provided equal facilties.
Appeal cases in the early 1950s strengthened this when the
Appleal Court unan struck down the segregation of Cape
trains when the rail authority had attempted to reserve
all first class train carriages for whites (the rest
being mixed). (I think there was at least one other
case like this).
What the Nats did was to pass the Reservation of Separate
Amenities Act. What this did was to allow the segregation of
facilities even if facilities provided to different groups
was substantially unequal. Furthermore through this Act
and others they imposed segregation on a far larger scale
than ever before. It wasn't so long ago that it was
*forbidden* for cinemas to show films to mixed audiences
-- that is private bodies were forced to segregate
whether they liked it or not. Informal segregation became
officially imposed segregation and a conscious attempt
was made root out any mixing in private life.
One of the pernicious effects of this was hardening of attitudes and
the increase in racism. It is interesting to compare judgements of the
Appeal Court. Whereas in the early 1950s the Appeal Court was trying
to uphold the principle of equality, in the early 1960s it seemed to
be only too eager to help the government's political aims.
One of the sad things is that although the Reservation
of Separate Amenities Act was important ideologically
and the amount of harm it did was immense, it ranks quite low
in list of horrible things the Nats did since 1948.

I don't know whether you are aware of the composition of Ecomog.
The fact that the Nigerian forces form the larger part of it does not mean
that it is made up of only Nigerians. Listen to Charles Taylor when he
accuses Ecomog of invading his country and you will realise that beside
Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, and Guinea are also virulently attacked.
Now it is true that Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso support Charles
Taylor's murderous enterprise, but the old man in Yamoussoukro has never
acted differently. He supported Biafran secession and actually recognized
Biafra as an independent country, he has been one of the staunchest
backers of the renegade Jonas Savimbi of Angola, he maintained cordial
relations with the Apartheid Regime in South Africa all through the
years, even when Reagan had reason to object to some of its actions, he
was completely opposed to Dr. Nkrumah of Ghana, and permitted subversive
activities against Ghana to be launched from his country against virtually
every regime from Nkrumah to the present government, except Dr. Hilla
Limann's government.
Compaore of Burkina is a protege of Boigny of Ivory Coast, just like
Charles Taylor is also his protege, so it is only to be expected that
these three will gang up to cause all the mischief. There is the extra
element of French hegemony over its former colonies, and it always sees any
move that consolidates African solidarity as another cog that will help
unscrew its grip on those countries. So it incites those that it has
influence over to sow mayheim (Sp?).
: I am baffled by the silence displayed by most
: African leaders with regard to the Angolan crisis. Savimbi lost the
: elections which were fair and free; now he is continuing a brutal war
: war whose results are the pains and sufferings of innocent civilians.
I certainly agree with that. When we had great leaders like Murtala
Mohammed of Nigeria, the Angolan situation took a different turn because
they were willing to stand up and be counted on the side of the will of
the majority of Angolans. It should however be noted that the economic
conditions of all countries (including the U.S.A.) today are quite
different from what they were in the 70's and any backing of Angola, if it
does not have a material component, is just futile hot air in the Angolan
situation.
: If the west decides to intervene in these countries,
: African nations will be the first to scream "COLONIZATION" or
: INTERFERENCE in internal problems of African countries. What do we call
: internal problems of a country? Is butchering people what you call
: internal problems of a country?
ARE YOU SERIOUS???? Do you know the history of how Mobutu came to power and
how he has been able to stay in power till now? Do you know how Savimbi
got so powerful? Would you mind looking up the book called "In Search of
Enemies" by a former CIA operative called John Stockwell so as to begin to
understand whether Western intervention in Zaire or Angola is
the chicken or the egg of the current problems there?
If you know that Mobutu has always been a Western agent (well documented),
and he was helped by them to murder one of the greatest African Patriots-
Patrice Lumumba- and that France, Belgium and Morocco have come to his
rescue on several ocassion when the Zairean people (at home and in exile) have
attempted to rid themselves of this blood-thirsty dictator, then you will
understand that western intervention has a lot to do with the continued
reign of Mobutu.
Cold war politics made the West support Savimbi against the then
left-leaning government of the MPLA in Angola, and when Savimbi joined
forces with South Africa and tried to overrun the country, the government
had no choice but to ask its then communist friends to help. Cuba provided
ground troops and the USSR provided cash and military hardware, and in the
famous battle of Cunene Canvahle (Sp?), the Cubans routed the South
Africans and saved Angola. But the West continued to arm Savimbi in his
bush war right until the elections which he lost. But since he had had
that backing, and since the former friends of the government are now
all in disarray, Savimbi feels that his backers will turn a blind eye and
allow him to take the country over by force. So it is a moral duty of the
West to at least support the legitimate and popular government of Angola
(which has now shed its communist credentials anyway), to overcome the
monster that has been their brainchild.
I seldom see articles written by Africans in this group,
: dealing with the Sudanese problem, Slavery in Mauritania, the killings
: of non-Muslims in Mauritania, etc. But I have seen tons of articles about
: homosexuality or women circumcision in Africa.
While it is true that a lot has been written about homosexuality and the
circumcision issues, it is certainly not true that the Sudan issue is
seldom talked about. It would be a good thing for those who have the facts
to come up with them on the other issues, but they are not the only issues
of importance either. A lot has been said about the South African
situation, Somalia, African/African American relations and so forth, and
these are also important issues that cannot be belittled because other
important issues have not come up.
: but there pressing issues that involve : death,
: hunger, malnutrition, oppression, kidnaping, etc. Let us debate : these
: issues. When Africa will be able to feed its people, when Africa : will be
: able to stop the oppression of Africans by other Africans, : then we can
: engage in these various debates.
That is highly unrealistic. These problems have not been solved even here
in the West. Would you suggest that African Americans only debate
homelessness, malnutrition, black-on-black crime and only when they have
solved these problems can they then talk about white racism, Africa, local,
national and international politics?
This happens to be an open newsgroup and so the discussion of one topic
does not necessarily make other topics taboo if the members happen to
think that these topics are relevant. Some people tend to think that
when talking about Africa, only the topics about the gloom of doomsday are
in order. Well, you know Africa (I guess) and so you will have realized
that people live their lives, and are very often happy-go-lucky people
even when they sleep on a mat in hut. Those of us who see Africa with
African eyes know that there are huge problems, but we don't necessarily
lose our sense of humor as a result.

I wanted to throw a suggestion out to the net world dealing with the
current neo-colonial political structures in sub-saharan afrika.
After recently reading a book I highly recomend (Basil Davidson's BLACK
MANS BURDEN), I came away with the conviction that unless there is a total
about-turn in the way Afrikans conduct themselves politically, we are
doomed to keep repeating the same errors.
Basil Davidson, a historian, argues that the reason Afrika, is in the
turmaoil it is in politically, is that Afrika has wholeheartedly embraced
political structures that are totally foreign to it. Trying to work
within constraints imposed by these structures is what has doomed Afrika
(IMO) to that circular track of Civilian-->dictator------>Military->and
back to civilian.
Even the new upsurge of multiparty proponents and governments are doomed
to fail because the model we are using is not made for societies such as
ours. African political and social systems are not based on competion but
on compromise, consession and communality. So it does not matter how many
parties we form to contest an election or who ends up being put in office,
the political system is going to be seen by those who loose (a substancial
part of the population) as non inclusive.
In a society where if there is a family calamity/crisis the whole "clan"
is called and the resulting discussion and debate usually has the
blessing, or at the very least the acknowledgement, of everyone presesnt,
some decison is reached and the people disperse. How do people practicing
cultrual norms perfected over centuries attempt to feel represented
in the higher echlons of society in a totally different system.
We cannot follow societal values using one road and walk another road for
political governance. A political system is supposed to be an outgrowth
of a mature society and not the other way round. The political system of
ANY society is supposed to to stand for/represent every aspect of that
society. It upholds the values of that society.
Now that said, let me veer away just slightly.
The CORE values of a society NEVER change. They may bend (or even give
the illusion of changing) to accomodate new "truths" but the NEVER change,
because if they did, that society would collapse. E.g. Owning property
(not neccessarily land) is a fundamental value of the United States
society and constitution. You could not change this (the U.S) into a
communist oriented-nonownership- society without first decending into
total anarchy.
The political systems we (Africans) are using are outgrowths of foreign
societies, with foreign values and foreign "truths" developed over
hundreds of years.
To try and adapt these political systems to work in African societies, you
would have to "step outside" the boundaries defining the political system,
then the system itself would collapse, or at least loose meaning as
originally envisioned.
{E.g A supporting structure of the US democratic system is one man one
vote. In African society, elders carry more weight than "youngsters" (say
18 year olds), so one man one vote would be a "slap in the face" of our
beliefs (in the respect due to and place held by elders) in our society.
On the other hand to abandon or modify this pledge in the US political
system is to destroy it and render it meaningless.}
The political systems we are now using, have come up from societies which
follow different religions, cultural norms and even underwent different
historical experiences. How can we then expect these political systems to
function for us!!
I am convinced that unless we build systems, FROM THE GROUND UP, using the
past as a guide to the realities of the present, our turmoil will always
be with us.
We are young countries on an ancient continent and if we don't want to
take over a century to sort out our political direction, like the south
americans, we better "make hay while the [African] sun shines".
All societies are self preserving and will go ANY length, even war, to
preseve what they hold true. So unless we have the courage to take the
initative and change, our societies will fight this foreign form of
governance until either it goes or our societies (as we know them) do.
If we retain this unstable socio-political enviroment, you can forget ever
attaining any sustainable economic or other development.
My long winded two cents,
please feel free to intelectually "tear it up" :=) :=)

mukasa@panix.com
p.s I see the situation at home as.... Kind of like a patient who has been
given a donor organ (their political system) which is now being rejected by
the bodys immune system (our society) and instead of removing the rejected
organ, we are treating the resulting pains with asprin, on recomendation of
some quack doctor (IMF/World Bank).
p..p.s I don't have the answers but I think I see the problem:=)
If it didn't make sence, have a few cold ones and read it again.
See ya' monday, have a good weekend.

Subject: Massacre in Liberia Condemned
Dear Netters,
We need to condemn in unequivical terms the massacres carried out by
troops loyal to Liberian rebel leader Charles Taylor. While Charles Taylor
has fought his way to the outskirts of Monorovia, the capital city, the
conduct of his troops during his three-and-a-half years' insurgency leaves
much to be desired. While Africa has seen a few insurgencies that have
toppled corrupt and bloodthirsty regimes such as the ones in Chad, Uganda
Ethiopia, Somalia etc, the one of Liberia is the most troublesome, given the
character of Charles Taylor. First of all, he had been dismissed from his
public posts by the late Samuel Doe, then he fled to the US where he was
imprisoned for some criminal activity, then he miraculously escaped back to
Liberia where he commenced his current insurgency. While his insurgeny
appeared to be genuinely in the service of the people against an autocratic
and despotic bloody leader, his conduct, unlike the conduct of his
predecessors such as Museveni and his NRA insurgency, was based on retribu-
tions and intimidation. It was not surprising that stories of refugees
fleeing from Taylor's war front rather than vice versa started to occur.
His casualities included even foreigners such as nuns.
Most themes on this network seem to have and external dimensions to African
problems. While it is very important to look at macro issues such as Slavery,
Reparations, Neo-Colonialism etc, it is imperative to look at micro issues
and problems such as the ones in Liberia and the controversial "freedom
fighters" such as Savimbi and even the "progressive" Garang who have turned
out to be as despotic and power-hungry as their contemporaries in power, maybe
worse. Unless we tackle African problems at their micro level, it will be
difficult to be tackled at the macro-level.
