A Taste of Bitter Almonds

by Michael Schmidt (Anarchist-communist journalist)

📖 The Scoop

1994 symbolized the triumphal defeat of almost three and a half centuries of racial separation since the Dutch East India Company planted a bitter almond hedge to keep indigenous people out of 'their' Cape outpost in 1659. But for the majority of people in the world's most unequal society, the taste of bitter almonds linger as their exclusion from a dignified life remain the rule.

Genre: History / Africa / General (fancy, right?)
