Namibia: This Land Is Ours

20m 49s

Namibia is a vast, arid, largely empty country on the southwest coast of Africa. The long shoreline -- where the chilly Atlantic meets the Namib Desert -- is so forbidding that sailors named it the "skeleton coast." In this Frontline/World rough cut, Sarah Colt explores the issue of who should own Namibia's farms and cattle ranches.

Aired: 08/14/05
FRONTLINE/World is made possible by Shell. Major funding provided by the Skoll Foundation, The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.
