How would a government determined to exterminate its indigenous population behave? Ask the Namibians. Or, more specifically, ask the descendants of the Herero people.
Namibia, formerly the colony of German South-West Africa, became a mandated territory of the Union of South Africa (a British dominion) following the First World War, before winning its independence (with Cuban military assistance) from the apartheid-driven Republic of South Africa in 1990.
People are different, and that’s both entirely OK and entirely the problem.
We need to get the Ministry of Culture to fund some kind of dance development project.
We can have democracy or we can have indigenous sovereignty. We can’t have both.
I was expecting the book to be heavy on Eastern mysticism, but found instead a man inspired by the ancient Greeks.
