    This article details Henrik Verwoerd's response to Harold Macmillan's "Wind of Change" speech made to the South African Parliament on February 1960. It talks about how the tendency in Africa for nations to become independent does justice to both the black and white man of Africa. According to Verwoerd, Europeans represent the white men of Africa, whom brought civilization to major portions of Africa with the present developments of black nationalists possible. This is where the Europeans have brought in education, way of life, industrial development, and Western ideals to the black natives. Therefore, Verwoerd believes that the Europeans have the fullest degree of involvement with the same full opportunities to remain with the white man who has made all these African developments possible.

Harold Macmillan's "Wind of Change" Speech - 5 views

  •  
    This is a speech that was given to the South African Parliament in February, 1960. It touches on the material progress achieved by South Africa, then goes on to discuss the increasing emergence of independent nations in both Africa and various other parts of the world. It implies that growing feelings of African nationalism are inevitable and that their causes lie within western achievements. The speech also discusses the choice which newly independent Asian and African nations will have to make between the Communist Camp and the Western World.

    the article talks about the issues which have arisen from his appointment as a UN leader for tourism
  •  
    Article tells that Bobby Mugabe had signed an agreement that would mean Zimbabwe, along with Zambia will co-host the UN's World Tourism Organisation general assembly. The Movement for Democratic Change cannot understand why Mugabe has signed this document, seeing as Big Bobby has travel sanctions placed on him and arguing that Zimbabwe is not a safe country for tourism.
