Excerpt from The South African Native Problem, Suggested Solution
In a paper on the native franchise, delivered in Johannesburg last December to the Transvaal Native Affairs Society, I remarked that upon some subsequent occasion opportunity might be afforded for contributing a few ideas regarding native representation. The following reflections are offered as a contribution towards the solution of a problem which admittedly will tax to the utmost the resources of the ablest of South African statesmen.
And here I may remark that though upon the former occasion I had the greatest confidence in my position, and no doubt in my own mind, in the light of all available evidence, that the white race was fully justified in withholding its democratic form of franchise from the native, in the present instance I offer the solutions which have suggested themselves with diffidence, and as no plenary declaration and solution. Regarding the two primary principles I enunciate, however, I have no doubts. The above reservations have allusion merely to matter of detail.
It may be advisable before proceeding clearly to define my own attitude towards the black man in this country. After a personal experience of the native in South Africa extending since boyhood, I repudiate unhesitatingly any feeling of hostility to the black race. I have no sympathy with those who disparage the Kafir by stigmatising him as the "lazy nigger." The necessities of the native have not yet made him the slave of work that the white man has become in the Western world owing to the exactions of our individualistic and competitive systems.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. In this thoroughly researched and deeply insightful book, the author argues that the continued merging of Black and White people in South Africaâs major cities is unsustainable and will lead to instability. He views this as a result of the fact that the white population has largely depended on the Black population for its labor, resulting in the degradation of both communities. He advocates for policies that would prevent the communities from mingling, believing this would benefit both parties in the long run and create a harmonious, prosperous society in the future.
