Such violence on the part of the South African authorities is entirely consistent with the way in which they have implemented the apartheid system of institutionalized racism. It is also consistent with the way in which they have sought to maintain their illegal occupation of Namibia. Earlier this month the South African Army invaded Angola killing hundreds of refugees and innocent civilians. The South African Government is trying very hard to avoid exposing its violence and atrocities to the scrutiny of the world community. South Africa is afraid of adverse publicity such as that which followed the 1976 Soweto massacres and the murder in prison of Steve Biko the following year.
