He condemns the compulsion of Afrikaans education and discriminatory statutes, calls for repentance and action, and urges the Prime Minister to transcend racial lines and address the breakdown of law and order with justice. The piece notes the article appeared in The Johannesburg Star and was distributed by The Associated Press.
