The Persecution of Botswana's Bushmen

In the middle of Botswana lies the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, which was created to protect the traditional territory of the Bushmen and the game they depend on. The Botswana government has been accused of violating the Bushmen's rights to live and hunt on their ancestral land and is said to be denying them a fair hearing. Rachel Stenham, a campaigner with Survival International, gives us an account of what’s going on.
