Bushmen and boere

In what might seem an unlikely tie-up, South Africa’s Khoisan community will protest with AfriForum Youth over Khoisan land ownership at the Land Reform Department.

Unsubstantiated so far, but in a daily mail i get. Yes, that is the most perfect thing i can imagine. Pieter Mulder is now referring to all the "local" tribes as "bantu" ... which is the same as lumping all Koreans, Chinese and Japanese as "oriental" ... but of course will not be very well received. Also correctly, they recognise the difference between between the "bantu" and the KhoiSan, who really were the undisputed owners of this land until driven off by settlements, both European AND Bantu. Guess how much land they got?

If you wish to paint me racist, please don't. This is about historical accuracy, no matter what the "political slant" of the day may be, you cannot correct anything without first clearly understanding the history of what really happened. The ANC is big on correcting, not so big on understanding.

The funny thing is this: the bantu and the boere got here about the same time, and both had equal rights to the land. There were agreements between them, and for the most part that "natural" state worked. It was only when the British Empire came to SA, that the Bantu saw their chance to kill this other tribe "boers" and so sided with the British. That move has cost them everything, for despite the boers taking ALL the blame for apartheid, it was the British who implemented it, and directed it via their now confirmed agents Louis Botha and Jan Smuts.
