Native Races And The War

Native races and the war is a historical account addressing the complex issues surrounding the treatment of native populations in South Africa under British and Boer governance. The work provides a voice for the oppressed by collecting testimonies from witnesses, including indigenous leaders, to expose the injustices they face. The opening sets up a detailed examination of colonial power dynamics and the plight of local communities, beginning with an apology for adding yet another discourse on the South African question. The author argues that any lasting peace must be founded on justice for all racial groups. The historical backdrop includes the abolition of slavery and treaties that once promised protection and rights to the native people. Through the testimonies and appeals presented, the work emphasizes the profound disappointment and disillusionment of these communities, who feel betrayed by political shifts and broken promises from the British government. This introduction creates a sense of urgency and ethical responsibility toward indigenous populations and establishes the critical tone that guides the rest of the text.
