Cape Town a melting pot of slave history - UCT's Prof Nigel Worden
Professor Nigel Worden - who since 2009 has held UCT's King George V Chair of History - delivered his inaugural lecture titled "The Global Cape: Breaking the boundaries of the early Cape colony" at the University of Cape Town on 21 September 2011. Inspired by other scholars, he became interested in the links between slavery in the Cape and elsewhere. Slave practices here, he now argues, often reflected slave practices in other corners of the world. "The Cape, at least as far as this period is concerned, was not a closed world, it wasn't an isolated bubble, it wasn't just an outpost of Europe," said Worden. "It was an Indian Ocean and Southern Atlantic settlement in all its diversity, and it was connected directly to the networks of these regions."

1679 Van der Stel
Simon van der Stel (1639-1712), Dutch commander and governor of the Cape Colony, in what is now South Africa, from 1679 to 1699. He was appointed to the post of commander by the Dutch East India Company. Van der Stel encouraged agriculture and forestry and developed a scientific approach to the production of wine at the Cape. He founded new settlements inland, away from Cape Town, although he imposed harsh penalties on settlers who moved outside the colony's boundaries in search of better grazing land or to barter. From 1688 onwards he was successful at integrating French Huguenot refugee settlers at the Cape, thereby establishing a pattern under which other non-Dutch settlers could be accommodated in the colony. In 1689 van der Stel sent a mission to purchase Port Natal (now Durban), but there was no follow-up to this initiative, so it lapsed. He was promoted to the post of governor in 1691. In 1699 he retired to his Cape farm and was succeeded as governor by his son W. Adriaen van der Stel. He counseled his son not to allow the settlers to move out of the colony for fear that they would want to colonize the whole of Africa. By the time of his death he was a rich farmer and landowner and was responsible for experimenting with and introducing new crops. (Source:encarta.msn.com)

Cape Coon Carnival 2012
The annual celebration of the Cape Colored population in Cape Town culminates on the local public holiday, 2nd of January. Legend has it this was the day when the slave-owners of the old Cape Colony were still sleeping off their New Year's celebrations so the slaves could make merry.

1836 Die Groot Trek
The Great Trek (Die Groot Trek) was an eastward and north-eastward migration during the 1830s and 1840s of the segment of Afrikaners (known as Boers or Boere (Dutch/Afrikaans for "farmers"), who descended from settlers from western mainland Europe, most notably from the Netherlands The Trekkers comprised two groups from the eastern frontier region of the Cape: semi-nomadic pastoralists (known as Trekboers); and established farmers and artisans (known as Grensboere, or Border Farmers). Together these groups were later called Voortrekkers (Pioneers). While most settlers who lived in the western Cape (later known as the Cape Dutch) did not trek eastward, a small number did. Historians have identified various contributing factors to the migrations of an estimated 12000 Voortrekkers to the future Natal, Orange Free State and Transvaal regions. The primary motivations included discontent with the recently imposed British rule, its Anglicisation policies, restrictive laws on slavery and its eventual abolition, arrangements to compensate former slave owners, and the perceived indifference of British authorities to border conflicts along the Cape Colony's eastern frontier. That Ordinance 50 (1828), which guaranteed equal legal rights to all "free persons of colour," and prohibitions on inhumane treatment of workers, did spur on Boer migrations is documented by numerous contemporary sources. However, some scholars argue that most Trekboers did not own slaves, [1] unlike the more ...

South Africa: The Fight For Freedom
The Boer Wars was the name given to the South African Wars of 1880-1 and 1899-1902, that were fought between the British and the descendants of the Dutch settlers (Boers) in Africa. After the first Boer War William Gladstone granted the Boers self-government in the Transvaal. The Boers, under the leadership of Paul Kruger, resented the colonial policy of Joseph Chamberlain and Alfred Milner which they feared would deprive the Transvaal of its independence. After receiving military equipment from Germany, the Boers had a series of successes on the borders of Cape Colony and Natal between October 1899 and January 1900. Although the Boers only had 88000 soldiers, led by the outstanding soldiers such as Louis Botha, and Jan Smuts, the Boers were able to successfully besiege the British garrisons at Ladysmith, Mafeking and Kimberley. Army reinforcements arrived in South Africa in 1900 and counter-offences relieved the garrisons and enabled the British to take control of the Boer capital, Pretoria, on 5th June. For the next two years groups of Boer commandos raided isolated British units in South Africa. Lord Kitchener, the Chief of Staff in South Africa, reacted to this by destroying Boer farms and moving civilians into concentration camps. The British action in South Africa was strongly opposed by many leading Liberal politicians and most of the Independent Labour Party as an example of the worst excesses of imperialism. The Boer War ended with the signing of the Treaty of ...

"Ohm Krueger" AKA "Uncle Kruger" (1941)
The best propaganda will contain just enough truth to make it believable and Ohm Kruger does have some uncomfortable truths in it. Cecil Rhodes was indeed a scheming rogue with big ambitions which were fueled exponentially with the discovery of gold in the Transvaal. Like oil today its discovery excited the British who had already pushed the Boers out of the Cape Colony. Not that his Boers were the simple yeoman farmers. In fact they liked the idea of gold on their turf as much as any British people. The film shows Rhodes and his company looking to buy Boer land, but Kruger wants a law passed forbidding sale of land to foreigners. What they can't buy they take. Which in a nutshell is the key to the Boer War. Kruger and his Boers fought back, but in the end lost mainly because of a method of war that was introduced by Lord Kitchener the British commander. Round up the civilian Boer farmers, destroy the farms and put them into camps to concentrate them. Hence the term concentration camps, invented by the British in that war..written by bkoganbing source:archive.org

Gannet colony at Cape Kidnappers - New Zealand
Jan-van-Gent - Takapu - Australasian Gannet - Sula serrator - Cape Kidnappers, Hawkes Bay, New Zealand. Cape Kidnappers is home to an enormous gannet bird sanctuary. The first birds were discovered in 1870, there were 50 couples at the time. That number rose to 40000 in 1980 and there are now about 90000 adult birds with their young. Scientific research showed that the fish living in these parts of the sea are just the ones the gannets like best, and the area is hardly used for fishing by man. At the end of August the gannets come from Australia to New Zealand to breed. Male and female gannets stay together for most of their lives. In October the female lays a single egg. The young birds leave for Australia in February or March. They leave before their parents do. How they know their way is still a mystery. Even more remarkable is the fact that the young birds, after a successful flight across the ocean, remain in Australia for two years. Only once they have reached adulthood do they return to their place of birth, in this case it's back to Cape Kidnapper again. Parents and their young recognise each other by the sound they make. The nests are just far enough apart so they cannot peck one another. When a gannet lands on the wrong spot, he is immediately chased off by the others. The only place for him to rest is in his own nest. Info HighRes Imagery: www.stockshot.nl © All Rights reserved by Fauna Film BV www.faunafilm.nl
