dc.description | full view, Until the Government went into the business of selling liquor to Africans, it was illegal for them to drink. They did drink, however, in places called shebeens, where many still prefer to gather. In a shebeen, oil can containing potent liquor is passed from man to man; jokingly they call it "crude oil" | en_US |
