Three finds on muti:

I want 2 go home:

We are the Bushmen of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Botswana. Together with our children, we number around 1,000 people. The government has forced us off our ancestral land, and now we live in resettlement camps. Since being relocated we have problems we never knew before: drinking, violence, HIV/AIDS. Many of us are dying in the camps. When we try to hunt or gather we are arrested and put in prison. The government calls this development. We just want to go home. Please help us.

White Africans:

When Mr. Mbeki speaks of "Africans", he unmistakably refers to blacks. And that brings me to the main focus of this write-up. Aren't white South Africans, Africans?

Are we doing SA an injustice with our obsession about crime?

There is a case to be made against unfair comparisons between SA and other countries whose media and tourism authorities work together to project only a positive image - "for the greater good of the country".
