On 20 November 2018 I debated Ndumiso Mokako, Deputy President of the ANC Youth League regarding the racist share scheme of the newly established Discovery Bank. The debate turned out to be more about black empowerment and white privilege in general than about the particulars of our concern regarding Discovery Bank's announcement that 10% of their shares will be given for free to black customers exclusively. I have to say that I was more than slightly puzzled by Ndumiso's line of reasoning. The discussion got quite heated towards the end, largely because Ndumiso was trying to scream over everyone. Please comment below and give me your views on how the debate went. What would you have said if you were in the studio? What do you think of the ANC's arguments? How neutral do you think the host was?
