The White Tribe of Africa

on BBC One London

Five programmes written and presented by David Dimbleby 3: The Grand Design
Thirty-two years ago the Afrikaner Nationalists came to power and began to unfold their Grand Design for South Africa. All races were to live separately and, in due course, each was to be independent. They called it apartheid. To the outside world the policy seemed at best irrational, at worst evil. But the Afrikaners have stuck to it believing it is the only way they can survive.
So what is it like to live under apartheid? As a black employee working in white man's land with a wife and children he rarely sees? As a squatter in Crossroads? What do they think of the Afrikaner system? And how do Afrikaners, who have to make it work, see it all now?
