Publisher's Synopsis
It is 1978/79 Apartheid South Africa and a British housewife, her spouse and three children are on temporary assignment."The White Man's Burden" is the true story of a racist political power that saw thirty million black and colored peoples brutally oppressed, in abject poverty; slaves in their own land. From her norm of cooking, housework, child-rearing, school PTA's, this London UK housewife is plunged into a style of life opulent and lavish beyond belief - that is if you were white - a paradise but a paradise at a cost.Torn between her new-found Eden and her feelings of compassion and advocacy, this is a story told with sensitivity and humor. It is history recorded from a different angle.
