A Defiled Utopia

   A place where the grass is rich and matted and the ground was holy being it came from the creator. Keep it, guard it, and care for it, for the Great Valleys of South Africa embodies the safety, serenity and sanity left on the defiled utopia

   "It is no longer permissible for us to go on destroying family life when we know that we are destroying it" Arthur Jarvis argues. Families are perpetually broken by corrupt men to run their greedy companies. Not only families, but also native tribes broken down by poverty and by the need for a congenial occupation.

   A decent occupation is only achieved through education . "A boy with education did not want to work on the farm" but rather "went off to the towns to look for a more congenial occupation". Thus, leaving the farmlands to the uneducated. Achieving progressive methods are futile without the educated, leaving the land "red and barren". While the town immigrant fails to achieve his goals and ends up being a drunkard, a prostitute, or a criminal. Adding more tension and fear on the ever dangerous cities.

  Furthermore, fear is now unfortunately given as a burden to the next generation. A child born will be the "inheritor of our fear". A fear that makes people run and hide to their homes, hold their handbags tenaciously, and gives a reason to continue the everlasting segregation. It is very unfortunate, for crime leads to segregation and segregation leads to crime. Crime triggers fear and crime continuous to grow which inevitably leads to more fear for the unborn.

   In conclusion, towns and cities are now so corrupted and feared. It is now not the ideal society for men. People would rather be poor but have morals in the valleys than be opulent but unethical in the cities.
