 Re: The Marxism Burden in Sudan! (Re: Tanash)

I enjoyed Nat’s company and we often went about together, including to a number of lectures and CP meetings. I went primarily out of intellectual curiosity. I was just becoming aware of the history of racial oppression in my own country, and saw the struggle in South Africa as purely racial. But the party saw South Africa’s problems through the lens of the class struggle. To them, it was a matter of the Haves oppressing the Have-nots. This was intriguing to me, but did not seem particularly relevant to present-day South Africa. It might have been applicable to Germany or England, or Russia, but it did not seem appropriate for the country that I knew. Even so, I listened and learned.
Nat invited me to a number of parties where there was a mixture of whites, Africans, Indians and Coloureds. The get-togethers were arranged by the party and most of the guests were party members. I remember being anxious the first time I went, mainly because I did not think I had the proper attire. At Fort Hare, we were taught to wear a tie and jacket to a social function of any kind. Though my wardrobe was severely limited, I managed to find a tie to wear to the party.
I discovered a lively and gregarious group of people who did not seem to pay attention to colour at all. It was one of the first mixed gatherings I had ever attended, and I was far more of an observer than a participant. I felt extremely shy, wary of committing a faux pas, and unequipped to participate in the high-flown and rapid-fire conversations. My thoughts seemed undeveloped by comparison to the sophisticated dialogue around me.At one point in the evening I was introduced to Michael Harmel, whom I was told had a master’s degree in English from Rhodes University. I was impressed with his degree, but when I met him, I thought to myself, 'This chap has an MA, and he is not even wearing a tie!’ I just could not reconcile this discrepancy. Later, Michael and I became friends, and I came to admire him greatly, in no small measure because he rejected so many of the rather foolish conventions I once embraced. He was not only a brilliant writer, but was so committed to communism that he lived in the same manner as an African, though he could have lived on a grander scale.
