A primary source is a first-hand or contemporary account of an event or topic. They are the most direct evidence of a time or event because they were created by people or things that were there at the time or event. These sources have not been modified by interpretation and offer original thought or new information. Primary sources are original materials, regardless of format.

Letters, diaries, minutes, photographs, artifacts, interviews, and sound or video recordings are examples of primary sources created as a time or event is occurring. Oral histories, newspaper or journal articles, and memoirs or autobiographies are examples of primary sources created after the event or time in question but offering first-hand accounts.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Before 1994, the whites of South Africa enjoyed a lot of privileges and the blacks of South Africa were actively discriminated against. When came the time to draw up a new Constitution, the whites would have wanted to protect these privileges as much as possible and the blacks would have wanted to take back those same privileges.

Drawing up a Constitution that would accommodate both views must have been quite difficult because they oppose each other and needed a compromise. Essentially, there was a need to draw a Constitution that would not enrage either race such that open hostility erupted between either of them so this was also a matter of preserving the peace.

Freud would say that is, "it has been sublimated into a socially desirable behavior." This is sort of a defense mechanism, in which socially inadmissible driving forces or admirations are unwittingly changed into socially adequate activities or conduct, perhaps bringing about a long haul transformation of the underlying motivation.
