Hannetjie, a tough new prison guard or warder, takes charge of Span One, a closely-knit group of black political prisoners in a South African work camp. Hannetjie punishes Brille, the prisoner with glasses, severely for stealing and talking back to him. Eventually, Brille catches Hannetjie stealing fertilizer and uses this leverage to strike a bargain with him: the prisoners of Span One enjoy privileges that enable them to endure their long, hard confinement and, in return, they become the hardest workers in camp, helping Hennetjie steal fertilizer and other items he can use on his farm.

Why does the tribe ignore the possibility of a human initiative the lovers by Bessie head?

In Bessie Head's "The Lovers," the tribe ignores the possibility of a human initiative because they adhere to traditional beliefs and societal norms that dictate their understanding of love and relationships. The characters are often bound by communal expectations, which stifle individual desires and emotions. This collective mindset reinforces the idea that personal feelings should be subordinate to the tribe's values, leading to a lack of acknowledgment for the lovers' autonomy and their potential to redefine love on their own terms. Ultimately, the tribe's refusal to recognize human initiative reflects a deeper commentary on the constraints of cultural conformity.
