Apartheid
Sir,—My arguments still hold good. The Shebeen Queens riot shows that the blacks are refusing to be dictated to by the wmtes, police or otherwise. The second case Mr Thompson cites demonstrates the general feeling of discontent prevalent in the natives. Why else should they destroy those facilities? However, what about the riots connected with the recent banishment of the African woman? I do not support these riots, but I do consider them indicative of a feeling of discontent and restlessness Might not the real reason for denying the natives the vote be to strengthen the South Africans’ grip on the natives? They have no-one to plead for them. The South Africans can do what they like with them, and they are just helpless. I still think the South Africans are heading for disaster, and will they then refuse outside interference in “domestic jurisdiction?" —Youra. etc., AM November 20, 1959.
