  • 1Sing Freedom (Part One) It was not so long ago that the question of South Africa brought New Zealand to the edge over the Springbok Tour of 1981. Since then, much has happened. When South African President F. W. de Klerk announced in February the release after 27 years of Nelson Mandela, the world, and Mike Moore, were delighted. We’ll have an All Black tour of South Africa inside five years, said Moore. He joins Frontline tonight from Christchurch. This week President de Klerk unveiled his latest move. A bill to abolish all remaining segregation in parks, swimming pools, and other public places. But South Africa's Blacks, led now by the newly unbanned African National Congress (ANC), want more and fast. Frontline reports from South Africa on a new mood of white fear and black euphoria, a roller coaster of reform which will be hard to stop without full scale civil war.
