Description

Explore a fresh perspective on African history with Land, Migration and Belonging. This book provides a detailed history of the Basotho migrants in Zimbabwe, offering a look into identity politics and African agency during the colonial period. It focuses on how a small, mainly Christianised community of evangelists working for the Dutch Reformed Church navigated the complexities of social integration. Readers will learn how this minority ethnic group managed the challenges of colonial Zimbabwe. By examining how they used freehold land ownership, religion, and a shared history, the text explains their efforts to maintain their own language and community farm. This work is an essential resource for those studying the balance between particularism and integration in Southern Rhodesia. It provides a clear account of how these communities sustained their identity while living within a changing social landscape.
