The West never wanted Col. Gaddafi to leave power — they wanted him dead.

In 2011, Gadaffi indicated that he was prepared to discuss stepping aside and handing over power to the African Union if his safety could be guaranteed.

The African Union dispatched a High-Level Committee of African heads of state and then African Union Peace and Security Commissioner Moussa Faki to Libya.

But NATO enforced a no-fly zone, and the African Union delegation's aircraft was prevented from entering Libyan airspace.

They turned thier plane around mid flight.

Just imagine it: foreign powers dictating terms to African heads of state, over African skies, during an African crisis.

The West knew all too well, that as long as Gadaffi was alive, his dream of a united Africa was still alive.

He had to die.

In the video below, anti-Apartheid activist Teko Manong explains what led to the 1959 potato boycott.

A 1952 Drum Magazine investigation by Henry Nxumalo had revealed how Black farm workers in Bethal, Mpumalanga were held in slave-like conditions of locked compounds, beatings and forced labour.

For years, farms in Bethal were infamous for housing workers in overcrowded, prison-like compounds, enforcing brutal discipline and subjecting workers to normalised physical violence.

Farmers were found to have compelled their workers to dig up the potato harvest with their bare hands, and those who could not keep up, or became exhausted, were sjamboked unmercifully.

As Teko Manong briefly alludes to it, the men and women who died, either from the beatings or the cruel manual labour, were buried out in the open fields, with members of their own families sometimes having to load their bodies into the earth themselves.

A 1958 article titled “Bethal Case-Book” by Ruth First traced this phenomenon through decades: There was a 1929 case of a farmer flogging a labourer to death, fatal beatings in 1944 and into the 1950s. Ruth First reported that these events recurred “as regular as the phases of the moon”.

Ruth First argued that the root cause of this problem in Bethal was the chronic labour shortage as the town was far from any Bantustan.
So, because the area intensively farmed maize, wheat and potatoes, White farmers needed large numbers of workers, so they had to rely on foreign contract labourers, then increasingly on convict labour via “private jails” and finally on abducting and smuggling pass-law offenders into farm contracts under threat of prosecution.

Ruth First documented the case of Nelson Langa, a municipal worker arrested despite having proof of employment, forced onto a farm, and released only after a legal application, which exposed an official government circular describing the state’s knowledge of the abduction scheme in explicit terms.

First concluded that the enslavement system persisted because the pass laws gave farmers a built-in mechanism to convert the unemployed into coerced labour.

These farm labour scandals in the Bethal-Delmas-Kinross district recurred for decades after Ruth First’s piece, with further exposés appearing in the 1970s, illustrating First’s central point that these were not anomalies but central features of how Apartheid’s labour-control system worked.

Poverty does not just take your money.

It takes your BELIEF that you have options.

And the moment you stop believing you have options you stop making choices.

And the moment you stop making choices someone else starts making them for you.

I thought I should share just a clip where Advocate Muzi Sikhakhane spoke at the launch of Vuka Azania. There will be a Black Convention at a later stage, which I must say I look forward to, where Black people will come together and talk about what they call "The Black Condition", talk about our problems without any interference.

As a Think Tank, they are not a political party. They believe our people need Education and Healing. In my view, it is a movement similar to what Afriforum is to Afrikaners and White people, which I feel we desperately need as Black people. I appreciate the Advocate and his colleagues for coming up with this progressive initiative. 🙏🏽
