The Afrikaner’s were the descendants of the Dutch farmers who were the first white immigrants to South Africa. They ended up dominating the political scene of South Africa and other white minorities had little political power. The Blacks and Coloreds (Indians) had none in the Afrikaner Apartheid regime. This was a constant theme of the Afrikaners to the other White minorities that if the Afrikaner Apartheid and control of the Black majority, the other white minorities would suffer, This turned out not to be true however. When the Afrikaners were pushed out of control, Nelson Mandella led the Blacks to a non-vengeful creation of a new state, where most of the white minorities were reasonably happy except for some of the diehard Afrikaner racists. Botha was the political leader of the Afrikaners.
Mickey Rooney was an American stage and film actor, comedian, radio entertainer, and producer. In a career spanning nine decades and continuing until his death, he appeared in more than 300 films, and was among the last surviving stars of the silent-film era. He was the top box-office attraction from 1939 to 1941, and one of the best-paid actors of that era. At the height of a career marked by declines and comebacks, Rooney performed the role of Andy Hardy in a series of 16 films in the 1930s and 1940s that epitomized mainstream America's self-image.
