Even if it were true that Sun City somehow betrays the less than 10 percent of South Africans who rule the country because they have white skin, which it does not, it is deceitful to imply that the question of apartheid is an internal question and that external meddlers like Steve Van Zandt (or, for that matter, myself) only muddy the waters.

Barbara Pepe’s disinformation about Sun City and South Africa in the March issue is more than distressing. It reeks ot the apologetics voiced by apartheid’s most trusted servants and it not only misses the point, it does its best to deny the most relevant facts.
