Ferial Haffajee is highly respected as one of South Africa’s thought leaders and commentators. She effectively uses her media platform to raise and discuss issues pertinent to the state of the nation.
Carlo Grosch But a book called What if there were no Blacks in SA would probably be seen as racist. Remember in Sa racism is a one way street and only whites are racist.
Carlo Grosch The word Africa represent people with melanin..as intelligent you claim to be its so shocking, you like little children and so weak , like to argue with no facts. Idiot. #lowIQ #whitesupremacy.
Armand Potgieter We were slaughtered our mothers raped by white foreigners, is that one okay .? or we shouldn't mention it because its past..you always protect your white asses its so hilarious.
Well she did indicate the "use" of "Affirmative Action" was good. BEE is the ANC "adding' their own ideals to it. As back when Afirmative Action was introduced, they did indicate it would be a 10 year policy. And during that time we did have good economic growth.
Affirmative action, no matter who the beneficiaries are is always wrong, a strong society bases itself on meritocracy, independent of race, religion or sex.
I love how they discuss SA as of it's not connected to the utter disaster that is the rest of Africa. And ignore the obvious single unique factor in SA.
Disaster which was brought by the pale, pink people. The most delusional, entitled, hateful, inhuman, naccistical pycopaths of a race. They came with nothing to Africa. They plundered, murdeded, looted minerals resources to make europe rich. But it is coming to end now, Africa will have the last laugh.
In a single race country you will find Rich and Poor people, not matter what, for example India/China/Japan/Russia, and their goverment don‘t blame on race. Because its inevitable in any society. But rather they try to find solution to improve every citizens well being. The Race Issue in South Africa has been a scapgoat for malfunctions in Goverment, cheap shots for politicians‘ uselessness and excuse for crime.
Unfortunately, South Africa is heading to be divided into two independent countries between AFRIKANS and Whites (colonial settlers) ... Just like what happened to Sudan.
@@sramz2379 True enough, but Whites in general will band together far more fluently than the other. Since we do not consider ourselves from "Different Tribes". We are just all humans living together.. So gathering the whites together would be a easier action than it would be the majority.
You want to get out of poverty? Family planning and condoms will go a long way towards achieving that. Like the lady said the white population is declining and that is because we understand that you can only have as many children as you can afford.
Stop fronting, white population is declining because of intermarriages.You have a recessive Genome because of your escapades with Neanderthals.If you understand population control as you claim how did you manage to fill Europe to a point that it could not sustain you?And how did you fill up Australia? America?Africa and now Middle East?Get Off your high horse,by the way do you that all those Latinos,Mestizos,black Americans or people of colour are you children?Tell us who supported the people you call coloureds here in SA for they are your children?
I agree family planning is needed urgently, people need to understand that to afford education costs and tax payers are diminishing. Affirmation action now means that white people are not being employed now. The jobs that are available if you apply and your white the algorithm just spits your cv out. Whites are leaving here because there is no future for white people and are young educated peopls are leaving only the older people will be left as we cannot pickup and start again. When your attacked in your home and your children are dragged around by the neck threatened with guns for a few cell phones, your going to think twice about staying in South africa , so many families are split now, grandparents here grandchildren in a safe country on the otherside of the world. Who can blame them
10:08 - I believe whites delivered on reconciliation when they agreed to Mandelas terms to disband military batallions that would have decimated black lives in the event of war. (Failing to understand how much blood shed was avoided through reconciliation can be an enbittering experience.) Democracy was negociated and not physically fought for, because it was an unequal fight that blacks could possibly have lost if it came to that... Mandela was knowledgeable of the white military power of the time and highly fearful of it's capability...
It actually does matter whether you believe we are still living in an era of Apartheid Ferial. You are a leader in South Africa and Editor to one of the biggest newspapers. People listen to you.
The tribes would have fought to extinction much like the Natives of America, when the British got there, many tribes where already extinct due to war and racism amongst the Natives. Not to mention that Ethiopia and Egypt was dealing in black slavery long before Rome even showed up in Egypt.
Armand Potgieter And you came to our rescue by instilling more pain and children were left fatherless. You guys are brilliant, you really helped with diversity too ..there are coloureds because of you . Congrats
lol that's what they told you, that's what they told us too when they were colonizing us. their day is coming. They cannot kill our families then expect to seat in our land peacefully. invasion of South Africa was an unprovoked war. They don't see anything wrong on what they did, if they saw something wrong, they would return stollen goods. Nelson Mandela is a sellout, no one comes out of prison after 27 years and become a president. The person who was going to be the president was killed.
You spewing bile righ out of your evil mouth. Your forefathers were killing each in europe, they came to murder our forefathers next because they were tired of killing each other. They came with nothing here, but to destroy civilisations, looted minerals resources, twisted history and the Bible to suit their evil deeds. You're the most delusional, entitled, hateful, inhuman, naccistical pycopaths of a race.
I found this to be very interesting. Thank you. I also think majority people don't realize that there aren't as many white people left as there used to be 20+ years ago. You don't have to take my view seriously... work needs to be created. If there aren't people who create work, then there will not be work. People should create work for themselves. Search and look for where there is a need. I agree completely, white people are not from Africa. What is the solution though? for the president and other political parties like Malema to incite violence against a minority group or to negotiate with Europe to take them back? I have not heard that there was any such negotiation from people in power in parliament which, for me, gives mixed messages... Do you want us/me here or not?
Plenty of Caves in EUROPE and Land in the North Pole. That is where you came from , when you interbred with Neanderthals you made extinct and the cold weather gave you your pale pink skin. Remember, Eden was in AFRICA not Europe. So GO HOME TO EUROPE.
whahahwhaahaha Eden was in Africa really???? geography 101 the Euphrates and Tigris rivers are NOT in Africa and they were in Eden ,so congratulations u win the stupid idiot award by actually believing the verbal diahrea that u suffer from!!!
I get what she says, to a certain degree I agree with some of it, but I still see a lot of bias in her answers. Irrespective, there's only one race, and the color of anyone's skin is determined by the quantity of melanin they have, which is genetic, so technically according to science, everyone is brown, just a different shade of brown, YES, even whites' "fair complexions". The only people that can be classified as white are those unfortunate enough to suffer from albinism, which is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the genes that causes a deficiency of Melanin causing extremely pale skin, eyes, and hair. For those who believe there are different races, go watch the video from Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson, a Ph.D. in genetics, proving that all people in the world irrespective of location in the world, their DNA can be traced back to a single source.
LOLING so nicely... This lady was doing great, until her last statement about business in South Africa, saying basically Ownership of the national economy should change its demographic. When you think about our biggest industries it's blatant that these are largely supported by investment/investors from overseas. Right there it becomes obvious that it doesn't matter who owns these companies, black, white or pokemon, as long as they invest here we do well. This unfortunately most living in S.A will not understand and that's why our government policies will foolishly to try change the national economies demographic.. and. . . that's how Zimbabwes are made folks. Wishful thinking Ferial, but S.A will never be "Safe in our socks".. Probably quite the opposite
I wish you people would get on with the race issue. This country will never move forward with black on white and vice versa. Not all races are bad. Good and bad in all.
interesting discussion. .. .but what should have been mentioned. .. .that Apartheit is gone but class Distingtion has kicked in.....low and middle and high class. .. and that has nothing to do with the colour of your skin.... but educational standard and mindset mainly. ..people with the same or similar mindset are flogging slowly together. .... which some people see as some forms of apartheid and they quite correct >>>> but this association of people has nothing to do with the colour of your skin , tripe or nationality. ...this will be more and more obvious as time goes by .... Rainbow South African will flog together by mindset and financial and educational standards. .. It is happening already.
That is the greatest obstacle to the African people their land and t h e i r minerals the government should expropriation of land without compensation land and I'm minerals as well only give them a few bucks for improvements go with the land and lease to whoever want to use
@@francoiswilliams when someone came into your country steal your land this stole your Birthright, and over time it becomes unsustainable especially in a time with global shift as you can see the Ukraine war brings a lot of stuff out and it will be a major shift coming forward soon in every country worldwide we'll just have to wait and see
The title is the biggest lie, how she got every black person in this country to buy one book just for the title. Wish I had that idea first would have been fucking rich.
South Africa would be much better because blacks in South Africa 🇿🇦 were used to live together because we had kings who were going to find a way to live together without fighting. Blacks used to borrow sugar from each other and even maize meal that was shown that South Africa 🇿🇦 could have been much better today.
no whites in SA it's just a sad dream.... use the assumption that we were all white in SA and I am sure it is DA will have been thinking about getting rid of ANC in favour of DA... and I am black by the way
God says He made Apartheid, it means Holy and He is bringing it back, go read His Holy Bible Deut. 7 & 23 + Ezra 10 and get with the program...Amen You get dark skinned Israelites too, God says even amongst the bastards, He has children, they will never come in the Father's presence, but will see How Son...
Freedom of speech means you got to tolerate racists and derogatory remarks!! Else there is no freedom!! Du!! Racism is any discrimination. That makes bee and all bee supporters racist bigots!!?
Your comments show your ignorance and inherent racist nature. You call the koi and san Brown people, so they are not Black? Let me educate your Racist Boer Brain. The Term "Black" is used to refer to people of African origin. That includes Koi, San and every black country in sub Saharan Africa. It is not tribal. There many shades of "Black". In the Sudan and central regions they are Usually Ebony Black almost purple and some countries have lighter toned blacks in west Africa e.g. Nigeria, Ghana even in South Africa and other African countries. It like me saying Italians, Greeks and Spanish people are not white because they generally have a darker tone and usually have dark hair. That would be so shallow and ignorant. The Black gene is special. We are the first people on earth as God is Black because he made man in his own image. Every other race evolved from us. But the Europeans inter bred with Neanderthals and became devils and eventually made the Neanderthals extinct, and took their lands. Just like they did to the Native American Indians. Your Divide and rule tactics used by your racist ancestors will not work this time. Pack your racist bags and Family and GO HOME. BACK TO EUROPE. You are European you belong in Europe. Africa for Africans. VIVA Malema, Viva EFF, Viva Africa.
