2002: Why Black People struggle
This is an article I wrote in 2002, which was published on an American website called Etherzone. In this article I‘m diplomatic and I‘ve written it for Liberal Americans.


[I was telling an American about the Rhodesian State Lottery. Jan]

My father used to regularly buy Rhodesian Lottery tickets in the 1970s. He bought them religiously. They were popular in South Africa too! I think the Rhodesian state lottery ran monthly. It was run by the government. It was a cool idea.

And here you can see examples of them in the 1970s. This is what my father bought:

I think my father won a small prize once or twice!
