I always maintain that you can’t suppress a population and then throw them into running a country and expect success. The truth is (another what if….) if potential leaders were trained, if intimidation wasn’t such a mainstay of elections, if the majority of the population was educated, if’s… so many. The truth is South Africa is now the haven for smart black South Africans who are kicking the collective white soceity in the butt with an ounce of retribution for all that was inflicted on them. As an ex-pat I cry for the beloved country and know that it is a place I can never live in, and a part of me will always yearn for it.
