A dream of Azania

Abstract

This book attempts to reveal the perpetual political socio economic inequalities that prevail in the post apartheid era despite its highly celebrated ushering of multi racial democratic rule. It exposes how these inequalities manifest in a society that consists of people who survive on hopes and dreams of which the majority are Black Africans with only a few from the previously advantaged (still advantaged) White minority. Meanwhile others have everything and these are mostly from the White minority with a few from the Black elite structure, dubbed “Black Diamonds” (conferred on members of South Africa’s booming black middle class who now hold about a third of the country’s buying power through Black Economic Empowerment – BEE).
