Read: The Seed is Mine by Charles van Onselen and Sol Plaatje’s Native Life in South Africa. The attitude of the British and Afrikaners, towards Africans, only differs by degrees - the Afrikaners perfected and legislated (i.e. deepened) the harsh racist policies of the Brits. By the way around 10 000 Africans died in that so called Anglo-Boer war that was a skirmish between two invading forces for the spoils of our defeated people. There is a long history between the English and the Afrikaners in this country and a very significant part of that has to do with the differences they had with regard to the "native problem".
