"Four-hundred and forty-five years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation. They were white men, Dutchmen, the bravest sons of the greatest race on Earth. They came here with a dream, to bring civilization to the Dark Continent, to create a nation where they could be free to work and to prosper, to transform the barbarian lands of Africa into a New Europe. They came to this land, and worked the soil, and mined the earth, and gave of their sweat and blood until they had built a country in which their sons and daughter could grow and live and thrive. And they did. The sons and daughters of Dutchmen, the children of the daring and adventurous, the firstborn of a new Afrikaaner nation prospered here, fulfilling the dreams of a generation of brave emigrants and industrious laborers. We are the descendents of these firstborn sons of Sudafrika. We are the heirs of the men who brought White civilization to the heathen barbarians of this continent. We are the scions of the White Race in Afrika, the rightful owners of these lands! For too long have we suffered. This is our country; and it has been taken from us. First came the English, who subjugated our people and took our land, as though we were no different than the Black savages of this continent. But the English came to see their error; the English joined us, became on with us, until Dutch and English were no more and we were all Afrikaaners, White Africans, the great Master Race of this Continent. No, the English do not oppress us; it is the Blacks. The Blacks have grown bold. They see the success of other Black barbarians against the European powers elsewhere in Africa, and believe that they too can be strong. They believe that they too can take up arms against the White Race and win. But the Blacks are no strong. The colonial powers were simply weak! We Afrikaaners are not weak! We do not fight to preserve a tenuous imperial hold over foreign lands. No! This is our land, and we fight to preserve it! The Blacks took hold over this country once; but never again! It is the destiny of the Afrikaan nation to bring the light of White civilization to every dark and heathen corner of this Afrikan continent. The Whites of Africa have suffered too long under the barbarous regimes of the Black savages. It is our moral duty to unite all White Africans under a single Afrikaaner state, and establish White power over all our rightful lands! Never again shall the rightful White masters of Africa be subjugated or oppressed; now is our time to bring unity and civilization to these lands. This is our time in the sun! Countrymen, I hold one very simple belief: that of Afrika for Afrikaaners!"
