Hello Jow Forums. My name is Christiaan. I am not so good at English, I was only taught Afrikaans at school and a little bit of dutch from my parents. I have an important question, I do not know what should I do. My story goes as following:
Two years ago I live with my aunt in Cape Town. It was not so bad, there were not many black people and the ones that were there were mostly kind. I was not a racist, I saw all people as equal and the apartheid as unnecessary, unlike my father. Then my aunt passed away from cancer. I was very sad, and had to move to my father's farm in the Eastern Cape. I had not talked to him in a long time, since he did not like me because I wished to leave South Africa and pursue careers outside of farming. I was his only son and his farm was to be inherited by me when he dies. When I came there, he told me the black people from the town would come and attack his animals at night. I did not believe him until I saw them myself. We could not fight back, so we had to lock the doors at night. Sometimes they would bang against the windows. It scared me. I wanted to leave South Africa, to Australia where they are accepting white farmers, and go to University. But my father refuses. He says he would rather die defending his land than give up to the blacks. What do I do? I do not want to leave him. He will eventually die and the farm will be abandoned. I am unsure.
