Voice, Silence and Gender in South Africa's Anti‐Apartheid Struggle: The Shadow of a Young Woman
In Voice, Silence and Gender in South Africa's Anti-Apartheid Struggle, Rachel Johnson presents an unconventional biography of a little-known South African anti-apartheid activist named Masabata Loate, who was born in 1961 and, after almost a decade of involvement in the liberation struggle, was murdered in 1986. By choosing to write about Loate's life and death, Johnson deliberately selected a historical figure about whom very little information…
Researching African Histories of Sexuality: In Praise of Excavating the Erotic
Do You Call Yourself a White Man?”
This essay is about the policing of white male heterosexuality in order to protect whites’ mythical racial purity in South Africa during the apartheid era (1948–94). Contrary to colonial authorities’ practice of turning a blind eye to settler men’s extramarital sexual exploits with colonized women, the apartheid regime attacked white heterosexual men’s patriarchal sexual liberties. In 1950, the National Party government passed the Immorality Amen…
Native Title in the Shadows: The Origins of the Myth of Terra Nullius in Early New South Wales Courts
In 1935, Marie Stopes published in her newsletter Birth Control News a declaration by the social anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski: Dear Dr. Stopes, I have just returned from five months in Africa. You will be interested to hear that your name is better known right in the heart of darkest Africa than that of any other English writer. The paramount chief of Swaziland, the tribal chief of the Chagga, and a whole lot of other intelligent Africans …

Are We Going to Stand By and Let These Children Come Into the World: The Impact of the 'Thalidomide Disaster' in South Africa, 1960-1977

Produced in the mid 1950s by the German firm Chemie-Grünenthal GmbH, and sold directly by them or by licencees, it was one of a multitude of medications industrially created during the post-Second World War boom in synthetic drugs and aggressively marketed for multiple uses on a global scale. Most notoriously given to pregnant women suffering from morning sickness, without adequate testi…

For the sake of the race: Eugenic discourses of feeblemindedness and motherhood in the South African medical record, 1903-1926
This paper examines the eugenic beliefs of members of the English‐speaking medical profession during the first three decades of this century. It is based on an analysis of two dominant eugenic discourses, those of ‘feeblemindedness’ and motherhood, uncovered in South Africa's first medical journal, The South African Medical Record, published from 1903 to 1926. Interrogating these discourses serves as an entry point into past processes of change a…
