This article focuses on the intellectual efforts made by a South African activist named Alice Kinloch, one of the first people to openly criticize the violence perpetrated against black mineworkers in Kimberley's compound system, at the end of nineteenth century. In the first section, we focus on Alice Kinloch's early life, her involvement in early Pan-Africanism in Britain, and the beginning of her efforts to denounce the compound system. In section two, we shift our analysis to the interaction between missionaries working in the compounds, and the colonialist discourse on “civilizing the natives”. As representatives of the Christian faith, in which Alice Kinloch also was brought up, missionaries play a central role in her critique, which takes aim at their collaboration, as Christians, with a system of racist violence that, in Kinloch's eyes, had nothing to do with the “civilization” it claimed to bring. The conclusions Alice Kinloch drew on observing the compound system were published in Manchester in 1897. In the third section we dive into her pamphlet Are South African Diamonds Worth Their Cost? , in which she condemned the hypocrisy inherent in the compound system and laments its effects on the black mineworkers subjected to a horrible regime.

“灵魂必须被束缚!”:爱丽丝·维多利亚·金洛克 (Alice Victoria Kinloch) 对南非钻石开采地的批判性审视
本文重点介绍了一位名叫爱丽丝·金洛克 (Alice Kinloch) 的南非活动家所做的智力努力,她是 19 世纪末最早公开批评金伯利大院系统中针对黑人矿工的暴力行为的人之一。在第一部分,我们关注爱丽丝·金洛克的早年生活,她参与英国早期的泛非主义,以及她开始努力谴责复合系统。在第二节中,我们将分析转向在大院工作的传教士之间的互动,以及关于“使当地人文明化”的殖民主义话语。作为爱丽丝·金洛克 (Alice Kinloch) 也是在基督教信仰中长大的代表,传教士在她的批评中发挥着核心作用,她的批评针对的是他们作为基督徒与种族主义暴力系统的合作,在金洛克眼中,这种系统与它声称带来的“文明”无关。爱丽丝·金洛克 (Alice Kinloch) 在观察复合系统时得出的结论于 1897 年在曼彻斯特发表。在第三部分,我们深入研究了她的小册子《南非钻石值得付出代价吗?》,其中她谴责了复合系统固有的虚伪,并哀叹它对遭受可怕政权统治的黑人矿工的影响。
