Article Here: "Changing Misconceptions About African Bushmen"
The Bushmen are an indigenous people in the southern part of Africa. There are more than 100,000 living in the countries of Botswana, Namibia, South Africa and Angola. They have been living on this land for tens of thousands of years, where they continue to practice their hunter-gatherer lifestyle. They are known to have genetic ties to the earliest humans. However, because of misconceptions about African bushmen and their way of life, they have become targets of prejudice and mistreatment throughout the past several decades. Due to these misconceptions, the Bushmen were evicted from their land by the government of Botswana due to the discovery of diamonds in their homeland. Their battle for freedom has been long and arduous, and these misconceptions must be reversed in order for the Bushmen to move out of poverty and into a more free existence. The Borgen Project spoke to Jonathan Mazower, the communications director at Survival International, an organization that has been working with the Bushmen since the 1970s. When the government of Botswana began to evict the Bushmen from their land in the 1990s, Survival was able to step in and help. Mazower explained how Survival enabled “Bushman spokespeople to travel abroad to speak out about the violation of their rights, launching tourism and diamonds boycotts, lobbying bodies such as the U.N. and the EU.”

Bushmen Win Legal Rights to Their Land in Key Court Decision

The Bushmen’s case was taken to court in 2004. Against all odds, the Bushmen won. Mazower explained, “The judges ruled that the government had illegally and unconstitutionally evicted the Bushmen from their ancestral land and that they had the right to return to their homes and to hunt the game animals on which they rely for a livelihood. It was the first time that an African court recognized the concept of ‘native title.’ Since then, and despite government obstacles and intransigence, many Bushmen have returned to their homes in the reserve.” In 2006, the Bushmen began returning home, a landmark decision in terms of African legal systems that took place after years of campaigning and lobbying. Mazower spoke to this work: “Survival’s campaign has changed minds and attitudes by challenging deep-seated prejudice against the Bushmen and their hunter-gatherer way of life, and enabled their voice to be heard within Botswana and abroad. The media and society generally in Botswana held the Bushmen in contempt, influenced by the government’s racist attitude to hunter-gatherers. There has been a sea change in public opinion in Botswana which is now much more supportive of the Bushmen and critical of the government’s treatment of them.” After the initial ruling, with the help of Survival, the Bushmen won a second case regarding water rights on their land as well as a successful removal of the De Beers mining company from their land. A final discovery was made by Survival International, revealing that many Bushmen had been tortured and abused by wildlife scouts in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. Once this information was out, support for the Bushmen continued to increase in southern Africa.

How Misconceptions About African Bushmen Harm Their Society

Even though the Bushmen have regained much of their freedom, there are still misconceptions surrounding bogging them down. Mazower detailed some of these: “Misconceptions, prejudice and racism led many to believe that the Bushmen and their communal way of life based on hunting, gathering and sharing are ‘backwards’ and ‘primitive.’ The government used this to justify the evictions and to force its ideas of development on them.” The Botswana government attempted to modernize these people under the misconception that they are primitive and ancient, but this modernization destroyed their spirits and ruined their way of life. Mazower spoke to this cultural destruction: “People who were once free and self-sufficient, living meaningful lives of their choosing on their land, turned to alcohol and became bored and depressed. They are now exposed to diseases like TB and AIDS which were virtually unknown before.” An article on the Survival International website discusses how progress can kill. The article states, “Forcing ‘development’ or ‘progress’ on tribal people does not make them happier or healthier. In fact, the effects are disastrous. The most important factor by far for tribal peoples’ well-being is whether their land rights are respected.” Common misconceptions about African bushmen and other indigenous peoples are the reason why development or progress is forced. The question becomes: how can misconceptions about African bushmen be reversed in order to help them be culturally independent? Mazower says, “By showing people what the Bushmen have to teach us. They are extraordinarily resilient, and are the best conservationists. They have looked after the fauna and flora for millennia, and have immense botanical and zoological knowledge which benefits us all… They can also show us how to live together as a community based on sharing and reciprocity–they are a great example of egalitarianism, where wealth is not measured in possessions but rather what you give away and share. They put the community before the individual, share and exchange possessions rather than amass personal wealth and embrace gender equality.” This is how misconceptions about indigenous people like the Bushmen can change: by showing the world their true nature and how it can learn from them rather than the other way around. Mazower closed the interview on this thought: “Survival’s work is rooted in showing that the Bushmen, like all tribal peoples, are contemporary peoples and are a vital part of human diversity. Tribal peoples who control their own land are healthier with a far better quality of life than tribes who’ve been evicted from their lands and had ‘development’ forced on them.”

For each case study, discuss the ethics involved in the study using the ethical framework presented in your reading.

Case No. 1: A developmental psychologist is conducting research on physiological correlates of orienting responses in newborn infants. What is his obligation with respect to sharing each child's data with the child's parents? Does it make a difference if the data suggest the presence of neurological abnormality in some participants?

Case No. 2: A local business is interested in making better decisions about which employees should be encouraged to pursue a career track in management. They ask a psychologist to administer and interpret personality tests that include measures of creativity, ego strength, and introversion/extroversion to a group of new employees. Should the psychologist honor this request? What issues are raised if the instruments used by the psychologist were developed using samples of white, middle-class men? What if the psychologist also is asked to administer an integrity test to evaluate each new employee?

Case No. 3: A psychologist who conducts research on jury characteristics has reported that potential jurors with specific demographic characteristics are more likely to render verdicts that favor the defense in certain types of felony cases. An attorney who is defending an accused rapist offers her a position as a consultant. She is asked to advise the defense team about which potential jurors should be eliminated during the voir dire process. Should she accept the position? Why or why not?

Case No. 4: A psychologist is a guest in a weekly radio "call-in" program. Listeners are invited to ask questions. During a show on treatment of depression, a listener calls with a "question" about someone he knows who seems "down". He reports that this acquaintance has been missing work frequently, seems irritable most of the time, and has made comments about "getting out of the rat-race for good". The psychologist, concerned that the caller may be actually speaking about himself, tells the caller that the friend is clinically depressed, is a likely suicide risk, and should be seen by a mental health professional as soon as possible. The psychologist then offers an appointment time in her schedule the following morning if the caller will bring his "friend" to the office for evaluation and referral to a local physician. Has she followed ethical guidelines in handling this situation?

Post a diagnosis of the client in the case study. Then explain your rationale for assigning on the basis of the DSM. Finally, explain whether this person is at risk for suicide and how you might specifically assess them for suicide. Justify your response with client data and the current literature.

Depressive, Bipolar Disorders and Suicide Program Transcript

[MUSIC PLAYING] FEMALE SPEAKER: I wanted to reconcile. I begged him to come home. I begged him. He was the one that had the affair. He said he couldn't stand to be around me anymore.

The divorce was finalized six, seven weeks ago, and it's over. It's really over. But

I just don't know what happened. I thought everything was OK.

I guess that's why I started drinking again. I know, I know. More than I should. I'll bet you I've gained 15 pounds. You know what would make me feel better? A raise. A big, fat one. Going from two incomes to one is just killing me.

FEMALE SPEAKER: That must be really difficult for you.

FEMALE SPEAKER: You have no idea. I even lost my medical insurance in the divorce, so now I'm not taking my medications.

FEMALE SPEAKER: What medication?

FEMALE SPEAKER: I forget the name. I have a history of hyperthyroidism, so I know I'm not supposed to stop taking them, but I can't afford them.

FEMALE SPEAKER: Is there any way you can get insurance through your job?

FEMALE SPEAKER: They cut all medical benefits. Sliced that right along with my hours. I don't really, usually hate my job, but it's just all sort of mixed up right now. The people that I manage don't respect me, and the people I report to, they just take advantage of me, and it's just a nightmare there.

I work in a department store. I'm the assistant manager there.

FEMALE SPEAKER: That must be a very demanding job.

FEMALE SPEAKER: It's not what I want. I went to school for fashion design.

That's what I love. I want to be creative. But business so just so hard to break into. Apparently, I'm the only one who thinks I'm any good at it.

I just want to pull down the blinds and hide away from the world. I definitely feel myself going there again.

FEMALE SPEAKER: Going where again?

FEMALE SPEAKER: Feeling rejected, worthless, crying all the time.

FEMALE SPEAKER: So you've experienced something like this before, extreme feelings of sadness and depression?

FEMALE SPEAKER: You don't really talk about it in our family when I was growing up. You just keep things to yourself.

When I was a junior in college, I went to a frat party, and I got pretty wasted. I mean, I was gone, but not completely. Because, I remember there was this guy and this girl. And we were drinking all night together, and then they took advantage of me.

FEMALE SPEAKER: Did they rape you?

FEMALE SPEAKER: Yes. No. I don't really know. It just all got mixed up. I ended up in the hospital for what they called a depressive episode. I was in there for six days. 40 milligrams of Prozac every day for breakfast.

FEMALE SPEAKER: Sounds like it was incredibly difficult for you. And how long did your symptoms of depression last?

FEMALE SPEAKER: I don't think they ever really went away. That's what happened last--it's just really hard for me to talk.

FEMALE SPEAKER: That's OK.

FEMALE SPEAKER: I always thought I was a good girl. You know, going to church and all that. But just the fact that I was with a guy and a girl. I just feel like I don't know which way to turn, you know?

FEMALE SPEAKER: Are you talking about your sexual orientation?

FEMALE SPEAKER: Yes. And it never really went away. Even after I got married, my husband used to complain that I was never really there when we had sex. Real boost for the ego, right?

He wasn't wrong. I don't think I've ever really been there during sex. With anyone, even before college.

It's not like I avoided it. It's just that whenever I did, I think I just went somewhere else. Sometimes I think I'm just afraid that I can't handle really connecting with someone.

FEMALE SPEAKER: What is it you think you can't handle?

FEMALE SPEAKER: I don't know. I do have one thing figured out.

FEMALE SPEAKER: What's that?

FEMALE SPEAKER: Details of my suicide. I have all the details worked out. I have a stash of Ambien. I have like 60 of them. It's going to be quick and painless. The only thing I haven't figured out is what day I'm going to do it.
