Scope and Contents
This title, shot between 1982-1984, was the first of John Marshall's "field reports" --videos that were produced quickly and distributed to government officials and others to raise awareness about issues facing Ju/'hoansi. Highlighted in the taped report are: problems and issues which affect Ju/'hoansi as the economy continues to shift from subsistence to cash-based; scenes and interviews surrounding the possible establishment of a game reserve in Eastern Bushmanland; of cattle farming and husbandry by Ju/'hoan groups; confrontations with South African Administration officials regarding the rights to install a water pump and the rights of Ju/'hoansi to use water. There are original and reference elements for this title.
