29. Biography Of Sol Plaatje Plaatje, Soloman Tshekisho (18761932). Sol Plaatje. Sol Plaatje was bornnear Boshof in 1876 and educated at Pniel on the banks of the Vaal River. http://www.anc.org.za/ancdocs/history/people/plaatje/plaatje.html

PLAATJE, Soloman Tshekisho (187 S ol Plaatje was born near Boshof in 1876 and educated at Pniel on the banks of the Vaal River. He worked at Kimberley as a postman, wrote and passed the Cape Civil Service Certificate and moved to Mafikeng (then Mafeking) as court interpreter. His diary of these days was later published as The Siege of Mafeking (1984). Between 1904 and 1912 he edited the Tswana-English weekly Koranta ea Bechuana before moving to Kimberley where he established the newspaper Tsala ea Batho . He wrote numerous articles for newspapers, wrote two works on the Tswana language, worked for the African National Congress (ANC) as general correspondence secretary (in which capacity he travelled to England in 1914 as part of a delegation protesting the Land Act 1913 ), and translated A Comedy of Errors and Julius Ceasar into Tswana. A house was presented to him in Kimberley by the community he served. He died in 1932. The house at 32 Angel Street was donated to Plaatje in 1929, by the black community of Kimberley, as a token of their gratitude towards him for all his community service. The house was situated in the residential area then known as the Malay Camp. Today the area is part of the commercial centre, with the Plaatje House surrounded by a number of commercial buildings, a five-storey apartment block and some municipal buildings. The house is also situated near the main road to Cape Town. Although the house itself is of no real architectural value, the front garden, facade and two front rooms were declared a national monument in 1992.

Pages from History: Solomon Tshekisho Plaatje First ANC Secretary-General Solomon Tshekisho Plaatje was born on October 9, 1876 on a farm called Dornfontein in the north-western part of the Orange Free State, some thirty miles north east of Kimberley. He came from a family with a tradition of contact with Christianity that goes back to the 1820's. Later he went to Pniel near Barkly West in the Cape where he attended school. At the age of 9 and 10 he attended a Church of England mission school in Beaconsfield, some 18 miles from Prilel. This was in the late 1880's. Then back at Pniel he was progressing far beyond the other pupils; so be began to receive additional private instruction from the missionary, Ernest Westphal and his wife. At 13 he passed the Cape Education Department's standard 4 examinations: almost certainly the first pupil at Pniel to have achieved this. In February 1892 he was appointed a pupil/teacher, a post he held for two years . In March 1894 Plaatje left the mission station to take up a job in the Post Office in Kimberley as a letter earner a highly sought-after job because it was one of the relatively few avenues of opportunity open to Africans for employment. At 17 he seemed to have been well prepared for a life outside the limited confines of the Pniel mission. On March 1, 1894 Plaatje began work as a letter carrier in the Kimberley Post Office. The Kimberley Post Office had been the first in the Cape to employ Africans as messengers and letter carriers. This was in 1880 when the Post Office found it impossible to secure reliable and inexpensive white labour. This provoked the anger of the whites who felt threatened by this act. Plaatje remained in his job for four and a half years. This afforded him the opportunity to improve his command of the English language.

SOL T. PLAATJE (Près de Kimberley, État libre d’Orange, 1876 — 1932). Solomon Tshekisho Plaatje est né dans une mission luthérienne, d’une famille du clan des Barolong. Interprète, lors du siège de Mafeking, en février 1900, pendant la guerre anglo-boer, il tient un journal qui ne sera publié qu’en 1973 ( Mafeking Diary, a Black Man’s Point of View of a White Man’s War, éd. J. Comaroff et T. Couzens).Il a joué un rôle politique de premier plan : en 1909, il participe activement à la formation du SANC (Congrès indigène de l’Afrique du Sud), ancêtre de l’ANC de Nelson Mandela. En 1912, lors d’un séjour aux États-Unis, il publie un pamphlet, The Mote and the Beam, dans lequel il dénonce l’hypocrisie du comportement sexuel des Blancs en Afrique du Sud, au moment où ils jetaient les bases de la ségrégation raciale. Il dénonce dès son apparition le Land Act de 1913, qui confisque leur sol aux Africains, en ne leur laissant plus qu’environ 10 % de leur superficie ( Native Life in South Africa, Before and Since the European War and the Boer Rebellion

PLAATJE Mhudi : une épopée retraçant la vie des indigènes en Afrique du Sud il y a cent ans (Mhudi : An Epic of South African Native Life a Hundred Years Ago, 1930 ; 1978), traduit et postfacé par Jean Sévry, Actes Sud, « Afriques », 1997, 308 p., 138 F. « Les étoiles surplombaient un ciel pourpre. Pendant quelque temps, il y eut un silence impressionnant, sans la moindre brise : les feuilles se tenaient immobiles. Et puis une hyène se mit à hurler, suivie par un chacal et bientôt elle reconnut les hurlements des loups, les aboiements des chiens sauvages, tandis que d'autres animaux, en joignant leurs cris, rendaient la nuit encore plus effroyable. C'est au milieu de ces sons discordants, au pied d'un gros arbre qui avait poussé au centre d'un fourré, qu'elle retrouva la paix. Là, elle aplanit un tas d'herbe sur lequel elle s'étendit pour passer la nuit : ce lit à la belle étoile était vraiment confortable. Les broussailles lui faisaient écran et la protégeaient des rigueurs du vent du sud qui se leva plus tard, tandis que les branches à la cime de l'arbre lui fournissaient un excellent auvent. Tout en s'accroupissant pour passer la nuit, elle ouvrit les yeux, et son regard se perdit dans l'immensité des cieux qui la dominaient et elle y observa quelque chose qu'elle n'avait jamais remarqué auparavant Ce dôme immense, si altier et pourtant si éclatant, faisait penser à la puissance de son Créateur qui apparemment avait aussi créé les arbres, les oiseaux, les bêtes et les hommes : oui, ces hommes brutaux !

Africa House Forgotten Writers: Sol Plaatje Who was Sol Plaatje? The first series of forgotten writers starts with South African author Sol Plaatje, polemicist, novelist, political leader, linguist and translator in the first half of the twentieth century. Plaatje stands alone as the giant of his time, though he can be compared with the great African newspaper pioneers in South Africa of this time. Plaatje started out with a modest education: 3-5 years of schooling (sources differ on this point), yet he not only became fluent in 10 languages, but wrote one of the first English-language novels on the African continent, translated works of Shakespeare into Tswana (this work, sadly, is lost), started several newspapers, helped to found the African National Congress, and campaigned tirelessly against racial policies of his time. Despite his Dutch surname, he was a Barolong. Possibly his greatest work is Native Life in South Africa Plaatje's book makes depressing reading when one thinks of what could have been. But at least today we have his example of the towering achievements of which an African even a person of extremely limited education is capable. Here are some alternative editions (both of these out of print in September 1998): Native life in South Africa : before and since the European war and the Boer Rebellion (paperback) Native life in South Africa : before and since the European war and the Boer Rebellion Other works of his worthy of mention are: Mhudi (the novel referred to earlier), a love story set in a world in which traditions were being torn down by the arrival of powerful foreigners the Boers
