| Summary, etc. |
"In 1857, an extraordinary religious frenzy took the lives of over 100,000 Xhosa and Thembu people in what is now South Africa, effectively destroying the Xhosa culture. But until recently a more pervasive self-deception has kept the full truth about that astonishing event from being known, for the evidence on which the historical account was based was riddled with both deliberate lies and self-delusions." (SKEPTIC) This article offers two accounts of how 100,000 Xhosa came to die of self-inflicted mass starvation and reveals how oppression and self-deception played a role. |
