@Sandfan: cute, but inaccurate. Sure, the situation is reversed in Zimbabwe. That’s a really ugly place these days, has been for 30 years. But under Mandela it seems to me that South Africa avoided the worst of racial reprisal.
If you Google the words Reagan + Apartheid, you’ll find that Ronnie actually supported this policy and rejected economic sanctions against South Africa, until it became clear that even he couldn’t get away with it for much longer.
And now the impoverishing, enslaving and controlling is being done by a handful of black south africans. Presently the vast majority of blacks in South Africa are worse off under native rule then they were under Apartheid. Average African cannot win.

I believe Oliver is thinking more literally. They really do look like him and his father, not just skin color.

A dream deferred, altruism blunted by greed and stupidity.
