This is exactly how I felt watching this documentary. When I was in University in the 80's one of my profs had lived among the San in the Kalahari for about a year or so. He spoke the language and everything, and he taught us a lot about their life. They lived on their land then, and now watching this film so many years later it is mentioned that all their land 'belongs to someone' and they cannot hunt on it. It is really sickening to witness the degradation of the modern way of life. all for what? profit? I dont know what to say, I do wish we see the light soon otherwise what is really human may simply be replaced by some sort of shallow pretense.

Sadder still is that when the black Bantu tribes arrived in the land of the Khoi and San , they overwhelmed them and robbed them of their land , stole their cattle and goats and rapped their women . This ugly part of early interactions with the foreign migrant settlers from central Africa is almost taboo to speak of today . The cruel injustices suffered at the hands of the black tribes continue today . The black Bantu Nguni govt sidelines and ignores the original inhabitants even today , they are not quite black enough to benefit from affirmative action , BEE or social development programs . None of their languages are officially recognised , while all the black Ngunis are . The struggle of the first nation continues .

Yours is easy to listen to, and gets straight to the point, instead of wasting 20 minutes in pointless, wearying preamble designed to display the commentator's supposed background research, erudition, and grasp of his/her subject. A delightful exposition of a subject that clearly needs to attract far more attention.

The name San is a derogatory name given to them by the Bantu people. Those Bushmen each had their own languages far more different from each other than most languages are today. In the 1930s there were 61 different Bushman languages in Botswana and by 1992 there were 9 left . A white farm girl grew up with one of them and they ended up as the only 2 people who could speak that language. Due to such great language differences they NEVER referred to their fellow hunter gatherers under one race name like San or Bushmen. They were too widely scattered and as I mentioned before their languages werent even related in some cases. They have the greatest genetic gene pool of diversity on earth, namely 30 % more than any other race on earth. They are related to the Pygmies of the Congo jungles. And a small remnant in Southern Tanzania. They once occupied the whole of Southern Africa alone until the Bantu moved in and either killed them or used them as slaves on the copper pits in Zimbabwe where they died within 2 years due to copper poisoning and malnutrition. I could go on but wont wasteyour time.

Facinating documentary, I have driven a long some of these roads past Clan William. Wish I had seen this documentary before I had driven out that way. I am learning more about my country, South Africa and the boardering country of Namibia. I am South African of British/Dutch/French decent. This documentary states the 1st German concentration camp, but in Irene, Pretoria, South Africa we have an older British controlled concentration camp where the Boer women and children were kept captive by the British during the Boer war in the late 1800s. Germany wasnt the first people to use concentration camps. I had not known of the loses of the San people. This has not even been mentioned in our education system in our History classes, maybe because it is crossing a boarder it gets left out, but Namibia was part of South Africa until 1990. We teach about their medicine, society, nomadic life style, their fight for recognition, their culture being diluted into other tribes and groups but this masacar is new to me, There is so much to learn about the past.

You know, times were different. Societies lived in an era where conquering other countries were the main goal. If you study history, of all countries, the super powers always supress the minorities. The Vikings did it, the Ancient Egyptians did the same, so did the Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire, the Ottoman Empire, Gengis khan, etc. it was not only the Dutch, or the British, or the Portuguese or the French who suppressed Africa. What did the Spanish do in South America? They killed the Incas, the Aztecas, You know, we just have to go and understand that the past is the past, and we human beings are all evolving from our experiences. What those people did, was not right, but they did not know better. But they also did good things, so not everything was bad.

This is exactly how I felt watching this documentary. When I was in University in the 80's one of my profs had lived among the San in the Kalahari for about a year or so. He spoke the language and everything, and he taught us a lot about their life. They lived on their land then, and now watching this film so many years later it is mentioned that all their land 'belongs to someone' and they cannot hunt on it. It is really sickening to witness the degradation of the modern way of life. all for what? profit? I dont know what to say, I do wish we see the light soon otherwise what is really human may simply be replaced by some sort of shallow pretense.

Sadder still is that when the black Bantu tribes arrived in the land of the Khoi and San , they overwhelmed them and robbed them of their land , stole their cattle and goats and rapped their women . This ugly part of early interactions with the foreign migrant settlers from central Africa is almost taboo to speak of today . The cruel injustices suffered at the hands of the black tribes continue today . The black Bantu Nguni govt sidelines and ignores the original inhabitants even today , they are not quite black enough to benefit from affirmative action , BEE or social development programs . None of their languages are officially recognised , while all the black Ngunis are . The struggle of the first nation continues .

The name San is a derogatory name given to them by the Bantu people. Those Bushmen each had their own languages far more different from each other than most languages are today. In the 1930s there were 61 different Bushman languages in Botswana and by 1992 there were 9 left . A white farm girl grew up with one of them and they ended up as the only 2 people who could speak that language. Due to such great language differences they NEVER referred to their fellow hunter gatherers under one race name like San or Bushmen. They were too widely scattered and as I mentioned before their languages werent even related in some cases. They have the greatest genetic gene pool of diversity on earth, namely 30 % more than any other race on earth. They are related to the Pygmies of the Congo jungles. And a small remnant in Southern Tanzania. They once occupied the whole of Southern Africa alone until the Bantu moved in and either killed them or used them as slaves on the copper pits in Zimbabwe where they died within 2 years due to copper poisoning and malnutrition. I could go on but wont wasteyour time.

I am learning more about my country, South Africa and the boardering country of Namibia. I am South African of British/Dutch/French decent. This documentary states the 1st German concentration camp, but in Irene, Pretoria, South Africa we have an older British controlled concentration camp where the Boer women and children were kept captive by the British during the Boer war in the late 1800s. Germany wasnt the first people to use concentration camps. I had not known of the loses of the San people. This has not even been mentioned in our education system in our History classes, maybe because it is crossing a boarder it gets left out, but Namibia was part of South Africa until 1990. We teach about their medicine, society, nomadic life style, their fight for recognition, their culture being diluted into other tribes and groups but this masacar is new to me, There is so much to learn about the past.

I was deeply saddened to see the last of the Bushmen unable hunt, gather and freely live on even a single acre of what is actually their own land. Could not even an ounce of respect be paid to indigenous people? They have suffered the same fate as in the US: colonization genocide alcoholism high unemployment and poor health as a result. Apartheid still existing in rural areas! And children being ashamed of their heritage means they (and adults around them) have internalize the racism of their colonizers..

Amazing documentary. This is the sad reality of colonialism by the Portugese, Dutch and the British. These people were living peacefully when the europeans came along and killed the people that were native to this beautiful country because of greed. It saddens me that nothing has changed and the legacy of apartheid will still be alive for many years to come.

You know, times were different. Societies lived in an era where conquering other countries were the main goal. If you study history, of all countries, the super powers always supress the minorities. The Vikings did it, the Ancient Egyptians did the same, so did the Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire, the Ottoman Empire, Gengis khan, etc. it was not only the Dutch, or the British, or the Portuguese or the French who suppressed Africa. What did the Spanish do in South America? They killed the Incas, the Aztecas, You know, we just have to go and understand that the past is the past, and we human beings are all evolving from our experiences. What those people did, was not right, but they did not know better. But they also did good things, so not everything was bad.

Call on our PRESENT GOVERNMENT TO DO SOMETHING FOR THESE PEOPLE. They are MOST UNWILLING TO ADMIT THAT THESE ARE THE TRUE FIRST PEOPLE OF SOUTHERN AFRICA
Watching this video makes one see the beauty of Africa. It reinforces the concept that everyone stems from African people. Genetically through the pheno-type you see the rudimentary bases for all of humankind. If Africa could strip itself of the boarders, allowing the people to marry, there is no telling what that continent and it's people will be able to accomplish.
The problem here is that we have coloureds that are decedents of San and coloureds that were a result of mixed races black and white. Also, you have Xhosa's (Nguni's) that are also decedents of koi koi people, with that said you have whites/broes who are trying by all means to discredit native Africa's of their right to claim this land and trying to promote or credit coloured people so that we as Nguni's can't claim legitimacy to this land in their quest to keep stollen property through genocide and apartheid rule.

During apartheid in South Africa, they were put into a different category from the colored and the Bantu because they were true indigenous people . I think they were called the first people.
The European people of the past were monsters!! They mistreated every human group that they encountered that were different from them. And yes, their descendents may feel guilty about what they did but, that is not enough. Monetary reparations must be given to these people. This doesn't erase the past wrongs but it helps these people to progress in the modern world. Many other groups have been given reparations or compensations if you will, why not these people?

I am sorry to say, but slavery was not only done by Europeans. Many African tribes would go to different tribes and would kidnap boys and girls and sell them to Europeans. That is how slavery started in Africa, more on the west coast of Africa. Even in nowadays, there are countries in Africa who sell women to Eastern countries. Do some research on this topic.

Interestingly enough, it appears as if the majority of the modern day khoisan would be classified racially as what we call "coloured" today. There also appears to be certain bantu tribes with high percentage of khoisan ancestry such as the tswanas and xhosas to a greater extent and the zulus and sothos to a lesser.
