Shows the rituals and myths of the affluent white settler society. Explains that the multinational corporations, which extract Namibia's strategic mineral reserves of copper, diamonds and uranium, are at the economic base of the country. How white interansigence has led to support for SWAPO, the South West Africa People's Organization, as Namibians begin to fight for their freedom. 521 Senior high through adult. 590 PFA 1612-01-5567. |afaded; Color is fading 655 7 Shorts.|2mim 655 7 Documentaries and factual works.|2mim 655 7 Documentaries and factual films.|2mim 700 1 Bergs, Jurgen. 700 1 Di Bagno, Simone. 700 1 Robbins, Mark. 700 1 Davis, Ossie. 710 2 California Newsreel (Firm) 935 GLADN50974568 954 20120801|bMarcive Authority Bib 956 20140224|bPFA migration/merge load 957 OCLC xref loaded 20140928 994 02|bCUY
