HELENE KROON DE KOCK
They were using English and Afrikaans. I suppose they used languages that I would understand. Now to say here that I am Afrikaans-born, I am born to an Afrikaans family and my home language is Afrikaans, and I don't know how I skipped the brainwashing of my upbringing. I think it was my father that was a very open man and I was brought up in a home where all people of all nations and races were welcome.  We ate together, and I grew up in Natal so I wasn't really aware of the hatred of the Transvaal.
