On the eve of the new year and against the backdrop of the most serious and dramatic events of 2021, as well as the accompanying unprecedented socioeconomic and political crises, which were considerably worsened by the utter devastation wrought by the Covid-19 pandemic, there is probably nobody in this country who is not very concerned about what the new year will bring and what our future will be like.
Indeed, South Africa is a country blessed with the most exquisite physical beauty and held equally dear by white and black people, though with a tortuous and blighted history, which we not only struggle to overcome, but which in certain respects are worse than what it was under apartheid.
