...troubled waters of South African race policy receive a scattering of satiric pebbles in Minim, but the all-white cast is scarcely in a position to throw critical stones. Indeed, their imitations of black Africans seem a trifle anemic, especially in a closing drum-and-stomp session. Otherwise, this troupe is so gifted that it may never see Johannesburg again...
Then there are the Bantams, billed as "three pre-teens with a rocking sound three times their size." They look like Mickey Rooney windup dolls. They twist and shout, stomp their size-four black boots, shake their neck-length flaxen hair and shout, "I got lips that long to kiss you."

China, usually more subtle in its subversive techniques, has also managed to stomp on African toes. Peking's men in Burundi were thrown out early this year after a Chinese subversion campaign that was climaxed by the assassination of Moderate Premier Pierre Ngendandumwe. During a recent visit to Tanzania, Chou Enlai ineptly pronounced Africa today was "exceedingly favorable" for revolution-which...
