Mahatma Gandhi and Winston Churchill both came of age in South Africa, today they are the founding fathers of their respective countries, India and the United Kingdom. Both Gandhi and Churchill have come to face scrutiny in recent years for things they had said and done however they are still held in high regard almost universally. South Africa's founding father wasn't as lucky as these two great men.
Jan Smuts is a name you probably haven't heard of, he was a brilliant intellectual, who taught as well as created philosophy, he signed the UN Charter of Human Rights, he fought on the front in World War I and Winston Churchill considered him the only man he could confide in during Britain's Darkest Hour. Jan Smuts is the founding father of South Africa, however he was also instrumental in the creation of the Apartheid state, and posterity has left his reputation to insignificance and ruin.
This episode covers the foundation of The Union of South Africa, the events that led Mahatma Gandhi to create his Satyagraha or passive resistance, and South Africa's entry into World War I.
