Remember that black butler in Save Django?
Mahatma Gandhi played such a role in the Cape.
The so-called "non-violent non-cooperation" is in essence a tribute to the British colonial order to the greatest extent.
What Gandhi won was not national liberation, but the recognition of the colonial government, that is, Gandhi was also of high caste origin and qualified to be on an equal footing with the British, who should rule over the lower castes and other colored people, along with the upper castes.
In fact, Gandhi's surname is not very noble, Gandhi's surname is the third class Vaishya, belonging to the Banya caste, "Gandhi" means food merchant, because he has been in business for generations, Gandhi's family is wealthy, his father Karamcand Gandhi was the prime minister of the princely state, otherwise Gandhi would not be eligible to study in London.
As a defender of the caste system and the British colonial order, Gandhi did have enough reason to look down on Roque, and probably in Gandhi's view, Roque was no different from other Chinese in the Qing Kingdom.
Also, after all, in the propaganda of the expeditionary force command, Joubert was killed by Henry.
Unlike Gandhi, who is good at hot faces and cold butts, Roque will not get used to Gandhi's stinky problems, when he found the contempt in Gandhi's eyes, Roque casually called Don over, and then pointed at Gandhi, Don immediately smiled and went over, and got Gandhi to the corner of the street to talk.
"I know this guy, this guy is calling for the social status of Indians, but he's in favor of restricting other ethnic groups from entering the Cape, like you Chinese—" Henry waited for Donn to drag Gandhi away, and didn't seem to like him very well.
In 1894, in response to the arrival of large numbers of Indian immigrants to Natal, the Cape colonial government passed the Citizenship Act, which imposed harsh conditions on Indians and expanded the scope of racial discrimination.
Well, it is estimated that the Chinese are also within the restricted range.
But this news also means that there are Chinese people in Cape?
"There must be, aren't you Chinese?" Henry didn't take it seriously.
Roque immediately blackened.
"Well, well, no kidding, there are Chinese in Johannesburg, the former gold mine owners, they hired some Chinese as miners, I only know that there are, but I don't know how many, you know, this was the territory of the Transvaal Republic before." Henry's color, which is also the news that Henry just knew.
Johannesburg!
Roque couldn't wait to fly over with his wings right now.
Speaking of the Chinese in the Cape, it is also a long history, during the Boer rule, the Dutch exiled "prisoners" from Batavia (present-day Jakarta, Indonesia) to the Cape of Good Hope in the Cape, including a small number of Chinese.
In 1882, with the development of the Rand Gold Mine, there was a serious shortage of miners in the Cape, so the "De Beers Unified Mining Company" negotiated with the Qing government to recruit Chinese laborers, and signed a contract to recruit Chinese laborers in China.
The owner of the De Beers Unified Mining Company is none other than Cecil Rhodes, the former prime minister of the Cape Colony.
After these Chinese workers came to the Cape, they were used to develop the Rand gold mine, and they never left Johannesburg, so it was the first time that Roque knew that there were Chinese in the Cape.
"What does this guy do?" Joe Russell didn't care if the Cape was Chinese or not, and his disgust for Gandhi was palpable.
"A lawyer who is not very good at the level of business is said to be an Indian aristocracy, so he also wants to get the corresponding courtesy, but the British Empire does not recognize the Indian aristocratic system, so he is just a guy born at the wrong time." Henry didn't care much about Gandhi either.
Actually, Roque wants to say, do you know who he is?
Do you know how hard he tried?
Do you know how much he paid to make Indians obedient subjects of the British Empire?
Have your consciences been eaten by dogs?
It's a pity that Roque can't say this.
As Henry said, Gandhi was indeed born at the wrong time.
In other words, it is "Huai Cai does not meet".
With the British, Gandhi's contribution is unknown.
With Indians, Gandhi's ideals are not understood.
Ironically, in 1948, Gandhi was shot dead by a Hindu faithful.
Speaking of being born at the wrong time, Roque suddenly remembered Gandhi's political philosophy: "Actually, his political philosophy is still good, he advocates non-violence, we can let him have more contact with these Boers and see if he can get anything out of it-"
What a black-bellied guy!
"Ahh
"Try it—" Roque was also not convinced that Gandhi could turn the Boers into obedient people.
But it doesn't matter if it doesn't work out, it's a loss for Roque anyway.
Then give it a try.
Don is indeed a good hand, and when Don brought Gandhi back, Gandhi could not see any scars on his face, but his gaze at Don was full of hatred.
At the sight of Henry, however, Gandhi immediately forgot the pain that Don had imposed on him.
"Okay, I'll try to do it!" Gandhi did not resist Henry's request.
In any case, Henry is also the chief of police in Pretoria, and his status is countless levels higher than Gandhi, not to mention, Henry is still a real aristocratic background.
A guy like Roque, who was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze, is not interested in Henry's identity, but Gandhi has been suffering for a long time-
With Henry's consent, Gandhi waved his hand and immediately took over the work of the police and the soldiers of the 3rd Regiment in West Yorkshire with more than 100 members of the Indian Ambulance Squad.
These Indians were indeed very industrious, and the attitude of the police and soldiers towards the Boers was a world apart.
The police and soldiers did not have the slightest patience with the Boers, and they pushed, insulted, scolded, and even beat them at every turn, so the crying at the scene just now shook the sky and wailed, and Roque was a little unbearable.
And these Indians not only helped the Boers pack up their things, but also helped the old and the young to maintain order, and their attitude was in stark contrast to the rough police and soldiers just now.
These poor Boers immediately felt the kindness of these Indians, and in fact they knew that being thrown into the camp was inevitable, but instinctively resisted and delayed, hoping to delay the time of being thrown into the camp.
But seeing the rudeness of the police and soldiers just now, and now facing these relatively kind Indians, they subconsciously accelerated their speed, not wanting to give the police and soldiers a chance to come forward again.
So the atmosphere was immediately peaceful-
Henry and Joe Russell continued to look confused.
Roque didn't feel good, how could he have a feeling of KMT and PLA, and he had become a villain, non-violent and non-cooperative-
It's really that powerful?!!!
