‘Two more Congos in the offing’, Douglas Brown

Douglas Brown writing about Congo’s attempts to force independence comments: ‘Britain, having abandoned the cause of multiracialism in Rhodesia, has assented to black domination over white on one side of the Zambezi and to white domination over black on the other. America, fearfully reading the racialist writing on her own wall in the unforgettable prose of JB, dare not face the issue at all’.
