Namibia - no easy road to Freedom [1988]

- Produced by Kevin Harris in 1988, "Namibia - no easy road to Freedom" looked at the harsh realities suffered by Namibia's civilian population under a history of colonial occupation and more specifically the brutalisation suffered as a consequence of South African military occupation.
As such, the film was a cry for liberation from the shackles of South African military occupation and a call by the people of Namibia for the right to self determination through the implementation of United Nations Resolution 435.
The film was seized by the South African Security Police from The Video Lab in Johannesburg during post-production mass-duplication & subsequently banned in an unsuccessful attempt by the South African authorities to prevent international distribution. Namibia achieved independence in May 1990.
Thank you a lot to today's technology for showing this. Nothing is hidden under the sun
Ocean County Hospital? Is that supposed to be Oshakati?
So happy for the namibian people who received independence 32 years ago. I visited Namibia a year ago, and must say, what a peaceful country it is now. I worked with and helped the poor communities, and the humbleness of people is something that struck me. A big Heart goes out to you!
Wenn da alles so gut läuft was sucht ihr denn in Europa? Das ein wenig was da gibt ist dank Europäer ihr seit undankbares Volk
The ignorant will always side with the ones that believe in the lies from their indoctrinators, their own people..... by doing worse as they’ve making it out that the past was so bad..... try and listen to the other side as well.... NO noT from the side of the white people, but the other side of the black population in the region..... who suffered a great deal under swapo..... your knowledge about what transpired are very vague and you seriously lack the information from all sides...... with ALL the reparations paid by Germany for one and all the International Funds they’ve received, the swapo regime has hardly done anything to uplift the people in the poor communities..... take Katatura, on the outskirts of Windhoek...... there is not one place where you can say that the swapo regime has spend any of those billions to uplift the face of Karatura!!!! Not ONE!!! It’s so freaking bad.... that they’ve lowered the passing standards for schools, that if u want to get a senior certificate to be able to get accepted for Universities or College or any accredited Academic facilities abroad, you have to complete it at a college level since high schools only goes toe grade 10.... Gr11 and 12 you need to go to a college.... Everything has collapsed under the Swapo regime..... all those beautiful architectural buildings they inherited and the infrastructure of Namibia, which is, or let me rephrase, WAS THE best infrastructure in Africa, had the cleanest and purest tap water in all of Africa and even in the world, it all collapsed and fallen into a state of despair.....
Im a namibian youtuber
Me: *needs to sleep*
TH-cam: kid, you want some... namibia documentaries?
You, too?
Even me
Proud Namibian and former PLAN combatant. Very emotional seeing Namibian Nation united in blood fighting to liberate their mother land. The community in Berseba, the workers, students, civic and other patriotic organizations from all walks of life. All colours, rejecting with one voice the vices of division by the apartheid regime and it's war machinery. I also feel for those brothers who were either misled or joined these notorious forces either willingly ir for the sake of survival. Today we have gained our freedom and we March together in unison. We must be proud of our heroic struggle for the emancipation of our beautiful land. this film has taught me a lot and changed my perception of participation in the war for liberation completely. I feel proud for being Namibian, I mean Namibian. Those who feel otherwise about this clip must accept that history will never be re-written in any way. Here we have living testimonies. Not driven by emotions but truth. Nothing else but truth. From Berseba to Katjinakatji, testimonies are there for all to see and hear. Let us build our country in unity and being pride of the heroic deeds of our fore fathers and all our fallen heroes and heroines of our mother land. Viva the people of Namibia, Viva!
+Titus Shikongo I'm proud to see that you guys fought for your freedom. Such courage, and honor. If Namibian's struggle for freedom were shared with all of Africa then there will be a change. I salute you guys.
Kikuyu Kiiru Namibia is a capitalist society cuba only helped us get independence because no other country would help us
Kikuyu Kiiru im nambian ...I think I know what type of state our government runs under
Emotional indeed unless you weren't there or you were other sight the struggle
Thank you for this. It’s important for us to understand what our parents went through. Because it is so different now and we are so free.
A blind man can't lead another blind person!!!
Also some of the biggest bullshit I have ever seen
So free yet so shackled by a corrupt and incompetent government
Free without clean water and electricity 😂😂😂😂
@@penzancegunner857where do you get the idea that there is clean water ? If there is no electricity then what powers the device used to type this ?
Let it be known. Winning battles doesn't mean you win the War.
Is amazing how far Southern Africa has fallen since liberation. Its more of a mess now than its ever been.
I am curious to research if Namibia has done better than South Africa or Zimbabwe since the end of Apartheid?
Yeah SA is toast, and to think it was once a nuclear power. The people should have learned how to run a country before they genocided all the Boers.
Absolutely untrue, the only example would be Zimbabwe, but even SA is better off now than it was under apartheid, and more than half of the problems it has now are due to apartheid policies anyway.
whatever it takes to justify genocide.
blaming whitey? lol.... After 30 years.. of being handed the richest country with the best infrastructure in Africa ? Current SA could not ask for a bigger head start...
I hope you enjoy your freedom.... freedom to blame whitey until SA becomes a 3rd world country
I've always liked seeing the vehicles that S.A have used in the bush, they look so much like modern day MRAP's
Heinrich Muller we were the first to build MRAP’s in only in the early 2000’s we help the US to build their first MRAP’s. We were far ahead of the rest of the world regarding MRAP vehicles.

You conveniently left out the other half of his sentence...nimrod.
Was called up at 18 for defending SA borders and proud of it. Was trained to be highly qaylified SA soldier and instructor in bush war. If you look at the bigger picture, we have put Namibia in much better position and S A was protected to such a state that no one would attempt to take on S A. All for my family and the future. Proud of it.
Just to add to it, still have the scars and have to live with it, but will do it any day again. Our mission was not to destruct, but make a difference.
Get the therapy you need.
Sir I want to thank you for your service and wish you all the best. May God be with you.

Proud of me people and thank them for their love and support for freedom
it makes me really happy to see Namibian People free from the evil apartheid
South Africa must allow extradition of culprits back to Namibia to face justice
Justice from what you bloody imbaseal. Communism was knocking at the door, and you think that is better. You should be washing the feet of the national party and thanking them for building a wall between that and this....
British media always needed to add a tail to a SA war documentary. Why? Not because of Namibian independence but for selling out the best power the continent of Africa has ever seen
Lmao best oppressor the continent has ever seen
kevin harris is south african,
''but for selling out the best power the continent of Africa has ever seen''
the SADF was an absolute whale of a military... it was a economic drain on apartheid south africa also it was the white south africans who sold them sold themselves out for being racist and stupid enough to launch wars in neighboring african countries to destabilize them (entire border war 1966 to 1989) and to maintain such a evil system for so long.
And 20 years after the war, have not acomplished 1 single thing to make the country better.
Stop talking like you don’t know how hypocritical the West has been. Once you lost your 20th century neoslavery, you sabotaged every economy, except those that had your multinationals. Who owns 80% of the fertile land in Namibia? In so disheartening that y’all can be this disingenuous and your fall to point is, look at it now. If you’re not in control, you destroy it. China learnt its lesson, now its threatening the world with its expansion. Who is running the show now?
Rubbish you Pig. Namibia is a great country I was there in 2019, absolutely enjoyed it. The people are happy and great economy.
Namibia is way better of now then it was then nice lies rat
Lmao Namibia is one of the most stable African nations in the modern world and has become far more progressive in regards to civil rights and is very peaceful they’ve accomplished a lot be quiet racist white boy
you are wrong
important part of history that needed to be said. the troops on SA side thought they were fighting for a good cause. in their minds it was, they were fighting in a war where the man next to you is your brother. They did not see the bigger picture and they didn't need politics to further cloud their minds. its very important to see this conflict from both sides and choose for yourself what is right. thx for sharing.
exactly what whites want for us to fight against our own. what low life behavior. I commend the brave young men who chose not to fight against their brothers
But you fight amongst yourselves, even when whites aren't evolved.
@@fakeprofile9502 so do whites
@@fakeprofile9502 it's you whites that seem too start all these problems and trouble and war
There are never winners in war. If you don't love Africa then go to another country. Traumatized people remain. PTSD. I have had the honour of visiting Namibia. I have iron from the desert there.
I’m from South Africa 🇿🇦 and I feel bad for what my country has done to Namibia 🇳🇦
"What Apartheid White South African GRN" did to Namibia.The ANC an SWAPO were alliances and most who started the revolution were railway workers and students in Cape Town ..who learned alot from the ANC youth league..how to mobilize and tactics..They used that knowledge to wage the same liberation struggle.
Yes ....those are not South African true speaking,they are from Europe. SA and Namibia brother and sister 💪🏽🇿🇦🇳🇦
You also the victim nje...
Your mob didn’t do nothing the SADF were feared now the South African army is a joke

The only nonsense you keep hearing from racist sour grapes is that "Africa is worse off now than under colonialism..." or communism this or that. Well, Africa like Europe will have to evolve through mismanagement etc. This is what we wanted, the right to make our own mistakes or to do right. Those who want to live in a well run economy can always migrate to the USA or Europe; or even to China, even we black Africans take this route when we want to. We are a developing community who's development was interfered with by outside greed. A freed slave has the right to destroy everything the master made and to start from scratch. It's just what it is.
"The only nonsense you keep hearing from racist sour grapes is that "Africa is worse off now than under colonialism..."
Well I for one will certainly concede that the above assertions are perhaps deployed a little too eagerly at times but they are technically accurate and far from "nonsense" in many instances I'm afraid.
....Also love the lack of irony with your rather casual suggestion that Africans can just elope to the West en masse if it takes their fancy! As I say, "irony". ;)
@@makara80 If you think that Namibians are by any possible metric of development or infrastructure worse off, then you must be high!
Any metric I can think of is better now: education, health, nutrition, economic size and sophistication, opportunities, infrastructure quality, political stability.
I don't see large numbers of Namibians fleeing their country.
....Speaking of "high" perhaps it would be more constructive to dispute what I _actually_ asserted rather than what you have disengenously decided I said...?
;)
@@makara80 Nothing "disengenuous" or even disingenuous about what can be gleaned from several of your comments.
Have a good day in the middle. ;)
_Very_ "disingenuous" I'm afraid Winston.
However if you're feeling suitably masochistic I'd recommend perusing over your previous comments so that you may enlighten yourself on precisely how you misconstrued my opinion.
....Not that you don't know already of course. ;)
Just in case you genuinely can't figure it out though I'll give you a hint: Namibia _doesn't_ equate to the entirety of Africa.... ;)
Watching this in 2023 as a born free. Who was taking these pictures and videos?
mijn vraag aan mijn south afrikaan broers ... zijn die landen er nou beter van geworden ? denk het niet
Nee
@Mr ed. Daar is veel dinge wat beter geword maar op diselfde tyd is daar veel dinge wat slegte geword het. Die grootste probleem is die kapitaliste wat in beheer van die regering en privaat besigheid is. Hulle het die normale man in die straat marginalseer. Dit maak geen verskil as jy er blanke of nie blanke is nie. Die waarheid is dat die mense op die links en regs is slagoffers van propaganda. Die wenners is die ryk elite klas.
@@louvendran7273the only one who has been brainwashed here is you of course capitalism still harms African nations but Namibia is far better off not under apartheid
They are free now and Namibia and Angola have done great keep crying racist
Thanks for showing us these truths.
If I had the power, I would put the biggest and highest theaters in every town in Namibian and play this film everyday just so that maybe this politic leaders that are wasting what our ancestors died for as the Namibian nation, maybe they will come to their senses and for the people of Namibia 🇳🇦 to realise that they have the power and the politicians
I was there 1989
Thank you for making this. Namibia, land of the brave!
As a white British South African, I am deeply appalled and ashamed by what the apartheid government did to the black people of Namibia and South African.
I hope that you are as deeply appalled and ashamed by what you British did to the Boer women and children during the British illegal war of 1899-1902.
Why, your people were fighting for their lives! Now, 25 years after, we see the cost of the defeat.
You have obviously, been brainwashed.
@@alandela6330 naw, Mr. Indoutrinated is not taught to have any such sorrow or sympathy for white women and children.
@@leestevens5546 - True, the cost for peace has been too high a price to pay.
@@leestevens5546 nonsense, every problem south africa deals with today can be traced back to NP ruled/aparthied south africa
corruption, high violent crime, poverty and lack of accountability can all be traced back to apartheid.
And, did life in Namibia get better after the South Africans left?
I'm genuinely asking, because you never hear anything out of Namibia anymore.
The richest people there are Germans and Afrikaners but they did bring some farming and ranching jobs. Also it’s a pretty decent tourist destination from what I read.
We are in a better Shape, nothing was happening in Namibia when SADF ruled Namibia, yall sound like you did put Namibia somewhere, like nill progress except what the Germany left. Within 30 years Namibia has developed more better than In SA era

Much appreciated since a nation without history documented is valueless, thanks for the video recording
Watching this leaves one with bitter taste in the mouth 😢😢😢. But the truth Must be told and we must be fully informed as the world.
i grew up in pretoria ..i was a teen around bothas presidency ... our songs were always about atrocities in angola, zambia ... the diabolical, repressive tactics used by the sandf in south west africa, were similar to what they did at home ... most of these soldiers are now walking freely, enjoying retirement ... my wish is that they be tried and brought to justice ... no group of people must have the license to be so evil ...

This is not a one sided documentary it's a wonderful and good documentary telling people thr truth, and what happened, and today swapo in rulling Namibia and it's one of the safest countries, one of the richest and fast growing economy, and with a very small population tell me if the fight wasn't worth it 🇳🇦❤ and people live with peace and harmony white and black
The objectivity of the documentary is clearly shown on where is Namibia today. Blesses country in harmony.
Very biased documentary, and Namibia isn't on anyone's tourist agenda

Nice documentary, and if this is one side of the story, at least we've got one side of the story for now, awaits more. . . About African Countries being 'worse or better off' after the fall of colonization, it also depends on your perception of better, is it better to be a slave and live in a double story house with electricity, or is it better to be free and live in a mud house???Freedom is the key and a starting point.

Bear in mind they go to the South African courts to complain. Apparently the system was still functioning then.
That was only for formality's sake, by which they essentially partook in paper-terrorism (look it up if you don't know what it means), but ultimately took their supposed grievances to the high court at the UN.

It seems to me that all these so called freedom movements in most african countries have led to the total decline of the African continent. I am just an observer from far away (Canada). But Africa used to be a thriving,yes under Colonial rule but thriving. I would like to ask, say the people of Zimbabwe if life was better in Rhodesia compared to life under Mugabe. I am not some white power racist. It just looks like nothing has been built or developed since Colonial powers have left.

MrBubbydoo the problem is that you are observing from another continent. How about you step away from your computer screen and come and find out. Namibia is thriving since independence. And this is all thanks to our freedom fighters.

omitted at the very begining (between German annexation and League of Nations mandate) was that SA acquired South West via military conquest at the start of the 1st World War..
then it says 100,000 SA troops in SWA! are you kidding SADF was never more than 80,000 tops and not all of those were in SWA
80,000 is close to 100,000
of all the politics the song is so beautiful. one which is sung in the coir
Regardless if Apartheid, segregation in its real translation - wether it was wrong or right, was not really the underlying argument for white rule in SWA at the time. It was a realization that communism was knocking at the door, and with this real threat, intelligent people (wether they used this as an excuse or not) chose to keep one of the last countries in Southern Africa communist free.
This is true fact. Although complicated, and debatable one cannot alter fact. Please always comment on fact only. Do not argue with emotion, but rather with fact....
Apartheid is wrong; segregation is wrong that is also a fact not emotion....
That’s your fact nothing more you have no evidence to back your claims
You are on the right track but this will be denied by most who don't know or understand the real (political) reasons.

prevailed? don't be delusional, Africans were not ready to become independent, ready to fight, yes they are, but not to prevail!
