  Sporting Life - Olympics 2000
Harold Abrahams' 100 metres triumph in the 1924 Olympics is surely the best chronicled athletics performance ever after it was immortalised in the Oscar-winning 1981 film Chariots of Fire.

 Untitled Document
Peter Abrahams (1918-) is one of the pivotal figures in the intellectual history of the New African Movement in South Africa from Harold Cressy (1889-1916) to Lewis Nkosi(1936-).
Abrahams argues that ironically it was this resistance to change, in effect to modernity since the modern age is propelled by ceaseless change, that made Afrikaners “pure Africans” by developing a deep attachment to the African soil and landscape.
Abrahams was optimistic that these attitudes would change as the Coloureds were compelled to form politically alliances with Indians and Blacks (Africans) in opposition to white domination and oppression.

 Planet of the Apes Revisited
Producer Arthur P. Jacobs and the sequel makers meet in the world of Hollywood past to lead Charlton Heston, James Franciscus and Kim Hunter to the nightmare future Beneath the Planet of the Apes.
In April 1968, after discussions with Jacobs, Abrahams wrote back saying that he thought Serling's treatment was missing the original's visual shock, as well as a climactic shock like the first film's shot of the Statue of Liberty.
Abrahams was fairly irritated, telling the actor that he really had no right to rewrite a screenplay weeks before production began, and that neither he nor Jacobs could accept it, though he admitted that there were some good ideas which would certainly be incorporated where possible.
