Black Township

Dullstroom-Emnotweni is the highest town in South Africa. Cold and misty, it is situated in the eastern Highveld, halfway between the capital Pretoria/Tswane and the Mozambique border. Alongside the main road of the white town, 27 restaurants provide entertainment to tourists on their way to Mozambique or the Kruger National Park. The inhabitants of the black township, Sakhelwe, are remnants of the Southern Ndebele who have lost their land a century ago in wars against the whites. They are mainly dependent on employment as cleaners and waitresses in the still predominantly white town. Three white people from the white town and three black people from the township have been interviewed on their views whether democracy has brought changes to this society during the past 20 years. Answers cover a wide range of views. Gratitude is expressed that women are now safer and HIV treatment available. However, unemployment and poverty persist in a community that nevertheless shows resilience and feeds on hope. While the first part of this article relates the interviews, the final part identifies from them the discourses that keep the black and white communities from forming a group identity that is based on equality and human dignity as the values of democracy.

The world has gone through a trauma for centuries. Almost all nations have experienced all sorts of traumatic events and feelings in this period. Among those nations, the black seem to be the most unlucky and ill-fated suffered from traumatic disasters. However, among those black nations, the natives of South Africa have been the most piteous and wretched ones. Their misfortune began in 1652 with the arrival of white colonists in the country. Since then, the oppression and persecution of white European colonists and settlers on natives increasingly continued. Those native people were displaced from the lands inherited from their ancestors a few centuries ago. They were not allowed to have equal rights with white people and to share same environment in public premises. The natives have put up resistance against the racial and colonial practices of white settlers which excluded them from all living spaces; yet, they could not manage, even they came into power in 1994. Today their exclusion and violence victimization still go on and they are still subjected to inferior treatment by (post)colonial dominant white powers. As a white intellectual and writer who had European origins, Nadine Gordimer witnessed the repression and torturing of European settlers on native people in South Africa. In her novels, she has reflected the racial discrimination practiced by white people who have considered of themselves in a superior position compared to the black. This study aims to focus on how Gordimer has reflected the trauma which the black people of South Africa have experienced as a consequence of racist practices. This will contribute to clarify and get across the real and true-life traumatic narratives of native people in the colonized countries.

This article presents findings from research into how young people growing up in foster care in the UK manage the relationships in their social networks and gain access to social capital. It is a concept that highlights the value of relationships and is relevant to young people in care as they have usually experienced disruptions to their social and family life. Qualitative methods were used and the findings show that despite experiencing disruption to their social networks, the young people demonstrated that they were able to maintain access to their social capital. They achieved this in two ways. Firstly, they preserved their relationships, often through what can be seen as ordinary practices but in the extraordinary context of being in foster care. Secondly, they engaged in creative practices of memorialisation to preserve relationships that had ended or had been significantly impaired due to their experience of separation and movement. The article highlights implications for policy and practice, including the need to recognise the value of young people’s personal possessions. Furthermore, it stresses the need to support them to maintain their relationships across their networks as this facilitates their access to social capital.

Background:Black people are less likely to undergo total joint arthroplasties, despite reporting more severe symptoms. (1) While racial disparities exist in treatment utilization for osteoarthritis, comprehensive studies of the treatment preferences of Black people have not been conducted.Objectives:The purpose of this manuscript is to systematically review the literature and identify Black osteoarthritis patients’ treatment preferences to understand how they may contribute to racial differences in the utilization of different treatment options.Methods:Searches ran on April 8, 2019 and April 7, 2020 in the following databases: Ovid MEDLINE (ALL - 1946 to Present); Ovid EMBASE (1974 to present); and The Cochrane Library (Wiley). Using the Patient/Population-Intervention-Comparison/Comparator-Outcome (PICO) format, our population of interest was Black people with hip and/or knee osteoarthritis, our intervention was preferences and opinions about treatment options for osteoarthritis, our comparator was white people with hip and/or knee osteoarthritis, and our outcome was preferences of osteoarthritis therapies. The protocol was registered under the PROSPERO international register, and the Preferred Reporting Items of Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed.Results:Searches across the chosen databases retrieved 10,894 studies after de-duplication, 182 full text, and 31 selected for inclusion in this review. Black people were less likely to use NSAIDs or narcotic analgesics compared to white people. (Figure 1) Black people were more likely than white people to use spirituality and prayer, as well as topical treatments. Utilization of meditation, supplement/vitamin use, and hot/cold treatments was not significantly different between groups. Black people were less willing than white people to consider or undergo joint replacements, even if the procedure was needed and recommended by a physician.Conclusion:Racial differences persist in OA care across the spectrum of options. Future interventions should focus on providing accessible information surrounding treatment options and targeting perceptions of the importance of joint health.References:[1]Suarez-Almazor ME, Souchek J, Kelly PA, et al.
