The Bushman Myth: The Making of a Namibian Underclass (Conflict and Social Change Series)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Images of the Bushman-from the innocent hero of the hit movie, The Gods Must Be Crazy, to "vermin" eradicated by the colonists, to the superhuman trackers conscripted by the South African Defense Forces, and the living embodiment of prehistory for the academic-shape our perceptions rather than the actuality. Looking at this interplay between imagery, history, and policy, Robert Gordon focuses not on the Bushman but on the colonizers' image of them and the consequences of that image for the people assumed to be Bushmen.
