    David Walker’s Appeal is a landmark work of American history which was written by an African American slave during the nineteenth century. David Walker’s Appeal arguably the most radical of all anti- slavery documents, caused a great stir when it was published in September of 1829 calling for slaves to revolt against their masters. The piece of work exposed white racism and gave inspiration to abolitionists in hopes that one day change would come. David Walker’s Appeal which consisted of four articles explored many factors which he believed contributed to the “wretchedness” of the blacks including slavery, religion, ignorance, and the colonizing plan.…

    Playing the Enemy

    In the novel Playing the Enemy, John Carlin describes the 1995 Rugby World Cup and its important role in post-apartheid South Africa. While it may seem like John Carlin is only writing about South Africa’s victory in the 1995 Rugby World cup, he is also writing about the political victory in South Africa. Because of Nelson Mandela, Rugby no longer divided races in South Africa, but it united them. Throughout South African history the Springboks represented apartheid which led to many black Africans wanting to get rid of the Springboks. However, Nelson Mandela showed his support for the Springboks, thus pleasing the white majority while gaining the support of blacks. As the first black president of South Africa, many would expect him to bring power back to the blacks. However, I believed Mandela saw uniting the races as a far more important issue.…

    In the mid Nineties, rugby did not give off an impression of being the stuff from which a non-racial reasonable South Africa would describe itself. For pretty much a century, it had been the session of Afrikaners, its rough harshness obviously proper to this officer farmer nation. The climb of the Springboks to overall force had coordinated with the choosing triumph of the National party in the Forties and the hindrance of politically authorized racial isolation. The diversion, it showed up, was irredeemably bound to a deficient and exclusionary patriotism. It was no enormous astound then that the ANC and its partners saw worldwide rugby as a key stadium of a battle.…

    Invictus is a biographical film based on the book Playing the Enemy: Nelson Mandela and the Game That Made a Nation. The story of the film revolves around Nelson Mandela’s efforts and strategy to unite the South African society that is torn apart by apartheid. Upon being elected as the first black President of the nation amidst severe opposition from the whites, Mandela faced an enormous challenge to reconcile the nation and build a democracy in the country devoid of racism. The 1995 Rugby World Cup hosted by South Africa became an unlikely opportunity for Mandela to restore harmony in the country. The blacks in South Africa despised the Springboks, South Africa’s rugby team as it was a symbol of white oppression. Only the whites supported the Springboks, whereas the blacks always supported the opposition team. By inspiring Francois Pienaar, the captain of the poor-performing Springboks to win the World Cup, Mandela was successful in inching towards his goal of racial harmony in the country. Invictus serves as a good lesson on leadership by portraying two characters, Nelson Mandela and Francois Pienaar as successful leaders, however, with different leadership styles.…

    The Springboks and New Zealand's national rugby team, the All Blacks, have a long tradition of intense and friendly sporting rivalry. From the 1940s to the 1960s, the South African apartheid policies had an impact on team selection for the All Blacks: the selectors passed over Māori players for some All Black tours to South Africa. Opposition to sending race based teams to South Africa grew throughout the 1950s and 60s. Prior to the All Blacks' tour of South Africa in 1960, 150,000 New Zealanders signed a petition supporting a policy of "No Maoris, No Tour". The tour occurred however, and in 1969 Halt All Racist Tours (HART) was formed. During the 1970s public protests and political pressure forced on the New Zealand Rugby Union (NZRU) the…
