QUESTION 1: HOW DID AFRICAN NATIONALISM CONSCIENTISE BLACK SOUTH AFRICANS TO RESIST OPPRESSION?

SOURCE 1A This is an extract from the African newspaper The African Liberator that explains the ideas of African nationalism. The African Liberator teaches Africans to free themselves from the bondage of poverty, prejudice and injustice. It teaches them self-reliance and self-help not only in one essential, but in all those things that contribute towards happiness and well-being. There is no progress in African aping (imitating) Europeans and telling us that they represent the best in their race … Slave mentality still holds our people in chains and they firmly believed that they can only exist through the good graces of their ‘Masters.’ Before doing anything worthwhile, they must have the stamp of approval, from Europeans, otherwise they have no confidence in their work, thoughts and ideas. [Taken from: Making History by R Deftereos et al] SOURCE 1B A Zulu lawyer called Pixley ka Izaka Seme founded the SANNC. He organised and gave an address at a conference on 8 January 1912, the day on which the SANNC was founded. At this meeting he stated: Chiefs of royal blood and gentlemen of our race … we have discovered that in the land of their birth, Africans are treated as hewers (people who use axes to chop wood) and drawers of water. The white people of this country have formed what is known as the Union of South Africa – a Union in which we have no voice in the making of laws and no part in their administration. We have called you to this conference so that we can together devise ways and means of forming our union for the purpose of creating national unity and defending our rights and privileges.

SOURCE 1C This is an extract from the policy statement adopted at the ANC Annual Conference – 17 December 1949. The fundamental principles of the Programme of Action of the ANC are inspired by the desire to achieve national freedom. By national freedom we mean freedom from white domination and the attainment of political independence. This implies the rejection of the conception of segregation, apartheid, trusteeship or white leadership which are all, in one way or another, motivated by the idea of white domination or the domination of the whites over the blacks. Like all other people the African people claim the right of self-determination …To achieve these objectives the following Programme of Action is suggested … ● The abolition of all differential political institutions, the boycotting of which we accept … to employ the following weapons: immediate and active boycott, strike, civil disobedience, non-cooperation and such other means as may bring about the accomplishment and realisation of our aspirations …

QUESTION 2: HOW DID THE SIX DAY WAR OF 1967 CONTRIBUTE TO

TENSION IN THE MIDDLE EAST? SOURCE 2A This extract focuses on the causes of the Six Day War. Israel’s invasion of Sinai in 1956 was the second major conflict between Arabs and Israeli’s. The third took place in1967 and is known as the Six Day War. As in 1956, the initiative again came from Israel, but as in 1956 Israel once again feared that if it did not attack first it would lose the advantage. Events during the early months of 1967 suggested that the Arab states were building up to a major attack. Syrian forces increased their shelling of Israel settlements on the Golan Heights. Nasser moved up troops to the Sinai border and asked the UN to remove its peacekeeping forces from both Sinai and the Gaza Strip. As in 1956, Israeli shipping was obstructed in the Gulf of Aqaba. Israel’s response, organised by its new Defense Minister, Moshe Dayan, was a series of lighting raids on all its enemies. Arab airfields were destroyed. Israeli forces advanced simultaneously against Egypt, Jordan and Syria. The Egyptians were driven right back across the Sinai desert as far as the east bank of the Suez Canal. Jordan lost the west bank of the River Jordan. Syria was driven out of the Golan Heights. Shattered by the overwhelming superiority of the Israeli forces, all three countries had agreed to ceasefires within six days of the original Israeli attack.

[Taken from: Questions of evidence: The Twenty Century World by P Mantin] SOURCE 2D This extract deals with the Israeli and Palestinian response to the 1967 war. After the formation of the Palestine Liberation Organisation, and under the leadership of Yasser Arafat, Palestinian guerrilla/commando/terrorist groups began a series of organised and increasingly violent attacks on Israel itself and on Israeli targets around the world. Israel responded in various ways, including commando raids of their own, assassinations of PLO leaders and operatives around the world, and, at times, full-scale invasions of neighbouring countries, such as Lebanon, which gave the PLO aid and sanctuary.

QUESTION 3: HOW DID THE NATIONAL PARTY IMPLEMENT ITS

IDEOLOGY OF APARTHEID IN SOUTH AFRICA? SOURCE 3A This extract deals with a definition of apartheid adapted from a South African history online education site. Translated from Afrikaans, apartheid means ‘apartness.’ The term is used to describe the legalised racist policy of the National Party (NP) between 1948 and (officially) 1994. Its roots can be found in South Africa’s earlier policies of segregation. Apartheid went further than segregation in formally regulating racial classification, relations and divisions. It saw black people as backward and uncivilised, and needed to be kept apart from white people. The only relationship that black people were allowed to have with white people was one in which they served them. Black people were discriminated against in almost every sphere of life. Racist laws dictated where and how they could live, travel, work, go to school, marry and socialise.

SOURCE 3B This source consists of a written and a visual source and deals with the implementation of the Group Areas Act in Sophiatown. WRITTEN SOURCE: This source explains different viewpoints of life in Sophiatown. The non-racial suburb of Sophiatown was bulldozed and replaced by Triomf, triumph of apartheid. But memories have never died, and many people still call the area by its old name. Harry Danes (a white resident) 54, lived in Hursthill, a nearby suburb. He watched the removals and commented, “We saw riots and people burning homes, the army and police often had to close off the area and teach these guys a lesson.” The memory of black residents is different. They remember vividly being “forced at gunpoint to get into trucks and move to Meadowlands. They also remember that we were such happy people – “it was safe and fun being in Sophiatown.” Their homes were bulldozed. Marion Kahn states: “I am still haunted by one question: Why did the government do this? It was the most heart-breaking experience.” [Taken from: Sunday Independent, 9 June 1996, Johannesburg] VISUAL SOURCE: Shows the forced removal of people from Sophiatown

SOURCE 3C This extract focuses on some of the reasons for the implementation of the homeland policy. At the heart of the issue were the political rights of Africans and the question of democracy. The white government wanted to convince the world that South Africa was a democracy in which everyone had the right to vote. They explained that Africans would have the right to vote for their own political leaders in their homelands, but would have no political rights in South Africa. By dividing Africans into ten different cultural, political and ethnic groups, the nationalist government could claim that there was no African majority living in South Africa. Moreover, by highlighting the ethnic identities of Africans, the government hoped to create divisions among them and prevent the growth of a united African nationalism that could threaten the apartheid state. The homelands were meant to become politically and economically independent. In truth, they never were … [Taken from: New Generations by F Frank et al]

2. ESSAY QUESTIONS 2.1 The essay questions require candidates to: x Be able to structure their argument in a logical and coherent manner.

They need to select, organise and connect the relevant information so that they are able to present a reasonable sequence of facts or an effective argument to answer the question posed. It is essential that an essay has an introduction, a coherent and balanced body of evidence and a conclusion.

2.2 Marking of essay questions x Markers must be aware that the content of the answer will be guided by

the textbooks in use at the particular centre. x Candidates may have any other relevant introduction and/or conclusion

than those included in a specific essay marking guideline for a specific essay.

x When assessing open-ended source-based questions, learners should be credited for any other relevant answer.

2.3 Global assessment of the essay The essay will be assessed holistically (globally). This approach requires the

teacher to score the overall product as a whole, without scoring the component parts separately. This approach encourages the learner to offer an individual opinion by using selected factual evidence to support an argument. The learners will not be required to simply regurgitate ‘facts’ in order to achieve a high mark. This approach discourages learners from preparing ‘model’ answers and reproducing them without taking into account the specific requirements of the question. Holistic marking of the essay credits learners’ opinion supported by evidence. Holistic assessment, unlike content-based marking, does not penalise language inadequacies as the emphasis is on the following: x The construction of argument x The appropriate selection of factual evidence to support such

argument x The learner’s interpretation of the question

2.4 Assessment procedures of the essay 2.4.1 Keep the synopsis in mind when assessing essays. 2.4.2 During the first reading of the extended writing, ticks need to be

awarded for a relevant introduction (indicated by a bullet in memorandum) each of the main points/aspects that is properly contextualised (also indicated by bullets in the memorandum) and a relevant conclusion (indicated by a bullet in the memorandum) e.g. in an answer where there are 5 main points there will be 7 ticks.

2.4.3 The following additional symbols can also be used: x Introduction, main aspects and conclusion not

contextualised x Wrong statement x Irrelevant statement x Repetition R x Analysis A√ x Interpretation I√

2.5 The Matrix 2.5.1 Use of analytical matrix in the marking of essay

In the marking of essays, with reference to page 5, the given criteria shown in the matrix should be used. In assessing the extended writing note should be taken of both the content and presentation. At the point of intersection of the content and presentation based on the seven competency levels, a mark should be awarded.

(a) The first reading of essay will be to determine to what extent

the main aspects have been covered and to allocate the content level (on the matrix).

C LEVEL 4

(b) The second reading of essay will relate to the level (on the

matrix) of presentation. C LEVEL 4 P LEVEL 5

(c) Allocate an overall mark with the use of the matrix.
