Valley Song
What does Abraam Jonkers represent in the play, Valley Song?
.
.
Abraam Jonkers represents the "old" South Africa in the play. He is painfully aware of his racial status and what it has represented in his world—no education, little opportunity, and a constant fear of white society and its dangers. Because he has lived through the worst his country has to offer, he is not as optimistic as Veronica about her chances in the world outside their valley.
