Synopsis
A harsh Apartheid-ridden South Africa is the background for "Apartheid, Superstrings, and Mordecai Thubana." Opening with a strange accident involving an imported Cadillac, a disappearing elephant and a mysterious black man with the name Mordecai Thubana, the story is a realistic examination of the biases people live with and what happens when they begin to question their own prejudices. Gerrit Myburgh, the white South African who was involved in the accident, doesn't think of himself as a racist, but his rescue by a "kaffir bus" makes him question some of the foundations upon which the Apartheid system was run.
