Description

A death at police hands is the final ingredient added to a toxic brew of British grievances against their Afrikaner rulers. For the Boers the British are little more than foreigners, and both see the tens of thousands of black Africans worthy of no rights whatsoever.

The debate is simply over which white men will rule.
