Which
country do you image when you heard the word the discrimination of black people? Many people may image the United States. When
I watched this movie, I
recognized I don't know the actual condition of
apartheid well. As Japan and the United States are relations close for a long time, most Japanese
students study about King,
Martin Luther, Jr. at school and in 2009 Mr. Obama have
been the first President as a black person, I can visualize the United States when
asked about the image of
discrimination of black people.
I know that in Europe
and America, black people had been ruled as slave by white people and discriminated from white people only for
the reason their skin color is black. But why in South Africa where many black people live apartheid
had been executed? In South Africa a little white people live too. Most
of them are descendants of white people who migrated from Britain in early 20th
century when Britain had colonized
South Africa. After the Second World War, although
South Africa became independent, white people had ruled South Africa and since 1948
white statesmen had gradually divided white people from black people. Then white
statesmen insisted that each race develop each themselves because in South Africa there
are many different tradition, culture and language. If this opinion were right, we
should praise them for promoting multiculturalism. But their action was
clearly discrimination. White statesmen just wanted only white people to live comfortably and
forced black people not to see white lives in order not to have emotional gap. If this
movie is made faithfully, all white statesmen are criminals. The sight that even women and
children were killed for their skin color was so awful that I wanted to avert my
eyes.
In 1991 Apartheid
is over by many brave activists and new South Africa restarted by black statesmen for all people regardless of skin
color. But people in South Africa may
never be able to forget this terrible incident. When the
first World Cup in Africa was held in 2010, I thought
This
competition was historically meaningful. South Africa had been internationally criticized for apartheid. But to
hold an international event like world cup in South Africa means that all races in
South Africa cooperate and show to
the world that they returned to the international
stage.
Now in South
Africa there are still many unsafe areas. But they will try to resolve problems with humane ways. And centering on South
Africa, the countries in Africa
will grow in economy or cultural field.
It is
difficult for Japanese to realize that people discriminate for skin color. But
we must know human’s immorality history and convey them
to future generations in order
not to happen again.
