On Trump and the invention of white victims in South Africa
Occasionally a display of racist violence is so brutal and grotesque that it forces South Africans to time travel.

Ugandan health authorities have closed all the clinics that focused on patients with HIV and TB. Staffed by health workers who over time developed deep expertise in sensitively managing infectious yet stigmatised diseases, the clinics were key to cutting HIV infection rates.
