The time has got to come when people realize
that if they do not go to Africa and see the conditions on the ground for themselves
all they are doing is parroting the media
and doing nobody any good
South Africa was a Britsh Crown colony
run by Europeans no different from America, Canada, Australia and New Zealand
every one of them made their own mess of integration
and still struggle with it today
South Africa’s problems were and remain tens times as difficult
It is too late now to cry over spilt milk
Since the collapse in 1994
the country is now on a fast track downhill
crime/disease/famine/unemployment are rampant
genocide may well be on the horizon
the reasons for the end of colonialism in Africa go far beyond slavery and poor wages
Colonization is an essential step in the evolution of human consciousness
Imperialism was the wrong settlement policy
it should have been teacher/student with the indigenous populations
not master/servant
the 18th century Christian missionaries were out of line demonizing shamanism
like they did witchcraft in Europe
and thus undermining an established stable spiritual belief system
but in terms of human development that too could not be helped
The Bible was the only mass produced book available to teach literacy
and still the only source is in more remote regions
we are all in the same evolutionary rail line going to the same station
whether we like it or not
the basic fact is that without literacy advanced technology is impossible
and without those modern tools
no indigenous population can deal with natural population increases
European know-how needed at least another one or two generations
to establish enough qualified natives to run a modern country
before handing over power
As a result of the premature collapse of colonialism
and the vast modern infrastructure it was slowly establishing
African is now governed by unprepared incompetent administers
existing on World Bank handouts
tribal lore and powerful marriage taboos has collapsed
weak Protestantism cannot contain sexual immorality
bribery and corruption is rampant
So now we are looking at Africa’s Dark Age
we went through it when Roman colonization collapsed
bow it is their turn
history repeating itself
The Apartheid policy of Separate development in tribal homelands
was fundamentally a good idea
it would have given each of the thirteen tribal language groups inside the country
a chance to experience an Iron Age of national industrial development
engender conscientious craftsmanship and build up self and national pride
but it was not economically supported by the rest of the world
three million South African whites were struggling to compete on the world market as it was
let alone try and build up a modern infrastructure for thirteen new nations without help
thus the white system got swamped by natives seeking work
and was forced to introduce drastic passbook laws to control the influx
which incensed the rest of the world further who demanded democracy
Democracy in a tribal milieu is an oxymoron
after 300 years of it the West is still divided by latent tribalism
both sides of any Truth are invariably clouded by primitive emotions
in Africa those emotions are still raw and extremely dangerous
genocide is common practice
The only thing I can suggest to help at this late stage in the game
is do what my nonprofit foundation is trying to set up here in the USA
build a Global stewardship training campus
with the idea of inviting and training third world students
with the latest technologies on how to run sustainable economies
so far I have been unable to interest anybody important with this approach
but we are going ahead anyway at snails pace with limited finances
