Bushmen who were evicted by the government from their homes in the Kalahari are braving exhaustion and starvation to return to their land.

Gana Bushman Roy Sesana has appealed to the UK's black population to support his people's fight to return to their land.

In what is presumably an attempt to deflect attention from the controversy surrounding its reaction to the eviction of the Gana and Gwi Bushmen of Botswana, De Beers is sponsoring the launch of a new book about the Bushmen of southern Africa.

In an astonishing reversal of government policy, Botswana's President Festus Mogae has told British MPs that Bushmen are free to hunt in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve.

The first Bushman woman to give evidence during the court case in which 243 Bushmen are suing the government for the right to return to their ancestral land has told the court that she 'feared for her life' when being evicted in 2002.

A Khoisan youth leader from South Africa's Northern Cape has returned from Botswana shocked by the conditions he found in the Bushman eviction site of New Xade.

The historic court case brought by the Gana and Gwi Bushmen against the Botswana government is due to recommence on 3 November in Lobatse, the seat of Botswana's high court.
