Dr Lindie Koorts in casu dr DF Malan

Kobus Spies en ek neffens die outeur van die bekroonde boek, dr Lindie Koorts: "Dr DF Malan... Afrikanernasionalisme". Die foto is voor 'n boekbespreking by die Volksblad se kunstefees op die kampus van die Universiteit van die Vrystaat geneem. Kobus was voorheen polities aktief in die destydse Nasionale Party en het ondermeer ook op die stadsraad van Bloemfontein gedien. Hy was verras deur die outeur se wetenskaplike diepte en kennis oor haar historiese onderwerp wat in die huidige konteks van Suid Afrika se "politieke korrektheid" vreemd opval. Nogtans het Koorts haar onderwerp in die regte konteks geplaas wat beslis 'n klomp onjuiste stellings oor die kritici van afrikanernasionalisme op sigself "REGSTEL" !

Dubbelverdieping woonstelle en gedeelde woonstelle aan woonhuise het die lidmate getalle opgestoot. Ons ouers het 'n gedeelde woonstel / huis kompleks in Blignault straat gehuur. Later jare het die NG pers se gebou daarop verrys. Bybels en veral sending pamflette in al die Suider Afrikaanse Swart tale was daar gedruk asook klank kassette met christelike boodskappe, opvoerings en opnames Die destydse dominee PSZ Coetzee, Oom Pietie, was 'n gewilde en bekende predikant in De Bloem.
