Such was the impact of poet Ingrid Jonker that decades after her death in 1965, the late Nelson Mandela read her poem, The Child who Was Shot Dead by Soldiers at Nyanga, at the opening of the first democratic Parliament on 24 May 1994.
“The time will come when our nation will honour the memory of all the sons, the daughters, the mothers, the fathers, the youth and the children who, by their thoughts and deeds, gave us the right to assert with pride that we are South Africans, that we are Africans and that we are citizens of the world,” he said 20 years ago.
“The certainties that come with age tell me that among these we shall find an Afrikaner woman who transcended a particular experience and became a South African, an African and a citizen of the world. Her name is Ingrid Jonker. She was both a poet and a South African. She was both an Afrikaner and an African. She was both an artist and a human being.”
She had written the poem following a visit to the Philippi police station to see the body of a child who had been shot dead in his mother’s arms by the police in the township of Nyanga in Cape Town. It happened in the aftermath of the massacre of 69 people in Sharpeville, south of Johannesburg, in March 1960. They were marching to the police station to protest against having to carry passbooks.
Answer:
The correct answer is D) Devin will be disappointed by the weather.
Explanation:
Devin had started out the day before preparing for his game. He had dotted every 'I' and crossed every 'T'.
Given that the rain was intensifying at 7am, it's most likely that it would ruin the day. On the balance of probability, it is possible the game will be canceled due to flooding or just because the field might not be in the best shape for a game. It is also possible that Devin might sleep through the alarm given the cool weather induced by the rain.
Ultimately, Devin would most likely be disappointed.
Cheers
