En lite bitter artikel om skillnader mellan Boer, Afrikaaner och brittiska sydafrikaner. Och om hur det brittiska imperiet kämpade emot Boerna. Och hur boerna idag blivit afrikaaners i media, och enligt artikeln tvingats ge upp sin egna boeridentitet.
Wikipedia verkar dock påstå att motsättningar mellan Boer, Afrikaaner och anglo(syd)afrikaner inte existerar länge. Verkar vara en rätt intressant soppa det där.
Citat:
History researcher Elsabe Brink wrote brilliantly about these defeated Boers in the cities of South Africa who put up such a valiant fight for their own identity - and whose ethnic identity is now again being discarded today in the latest ethnic cleansing facing them.
The elitist Afrikaners of the Cape, who had been ashamed of the Boers to the north who had fought against the British, were equally ashamed of these poor, defeated Boers who were trying to survive in the cities -- forced to work in mines and factories "like black girls in the factories" as they referred to them.
