BMW blacks move to the fast lane
Article Abstract:
South Africa's small black middle class is now starting to expand, with many traditionally white-dominated companies now actively seeking to recruit black staff for their affirmative action programmes. Black professionals are now able to choose who they want to work for and set their own salary level, and many are moving out of townships into white suburbs, educating their children at former white schools. Some are also aware of the need to improve conditions for the vast majority of blacks who still feel excluded from society and economic life.

Kurdish camp a seebed of Stalinism
Article Abstract:
United Nations Camp B at Atrush, Iraq, is a camp for Kurdish refugees from Turkey. In the past, these refugees, along with those fleeing from Iran, have been warmly welcomed by fellow Kurds in Iraq. However, Iraqi Kurds now claim that many residents of Atrush camp are armed, being dominated by the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK). According to the PKK, which is seeking a say in the government of northern Iraq, the Iraqi Kurds are tools of the Turkish government.
