Chris Hani: African Revolutionary, Why was he Killed?

- On Saturday 24 April 1993, one Martin Thembsile 'Chris' Hani was gunned down by an assassin affiliated with extreme white right wing, the AWB, in the driveway of his home in a suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa.
The motive could not have been more obvious; by striking at the very heart of the ANC/SACP alliance through this assassination, the right wing sought to scupper the ongoing negotiations aimed at ushering democracy in South Africa and most importantly reverse the apartheid time clock…

Please do Robert Sobukwe from South Africa, the father of Pan Africanism in South Africa
Now you are talking my brother.
The true South African Hero who wanted nothing but the best for all black South Africans, Rest in Peace Legend.
A communist terrorist belonging to an armed group that has over 100 victims among civilians, including blacks and a 14-year-old black innocent boy. In addition, Mandela's wife, who was also one of them, had an interesting form of murder by wrapping people in chains or barbed wire, putting on tires and setting them on fire.
@@Scalwag4087 how about you go and kiss PW De Klerk there fool.
@@Scalwag4087true we'll also kiss De Klerk
Oh fuck you need a real education
Exactly bra Thulz 👍👍👍❤
Didn't know about him. Thank you as usual for increasing African history awareness. Without your channel, I would know too little.
I 100% agree
He was a true leader his comrades betrayed him
Sure
His my mom homie maybe he continues rest In peace
Q
I'm not even African, but I love watching these videos. You've opened my eyes on African history, and its made me understand why certain problems exist on the continent.
You should come here the Africans will welcome you with Kill the Boer bro
Are u not black?
Trust me as South African we're only learning now so much..these facts was so hidden from us😮
Trust me you are safer where you are. You are clearly white....
Seeing these videos makes me so emotional that Xhosa people have stood up for their country but the Province of Eastern Cape is the most ignored Province.
Kuyangxaka nami ukuthi kwenzeka kanjani. 🤔but it's those people who made some sort of deals I guess. we are young we don't know.
but again if you think it wasn't in the eastern cape where these activities where taking place, it was in Gauteng , Western Cape and Natal where there was white people surrounded by bantustans
Eastern Cape leaders are corrupt and think about their stomachs first
Don't be surprised we are the tribe that conquered from the heart of africa to its farthest coast it is us who knows the value of all lands below the sahara and it is us with the greatest lands southern cape so if they ignore us its to their own detriment
I agree with you 💯
Thank you so much for educating an old an ignorant European. I’m nearing my end and I regret not having known more on African history.
Though this story had a very sad ending. I’m proud to see that Zambia stood tall with Chris Hani during his hard times. It gives me hope for what is to come in the future.
That is, a United Africa. May his and many other Ancestors death’s not be in vain ✊🏾
Thanks 😊 indeed also to the late President Dr Kenneth Kauda
@@Scalwag4087 What’s known ain’t got to be explained 😊
Including Angola n mazambique
The one thing Zimbabwe have ever done right, ruined country
He was a total fool
You’re lucky he didn’t stay there with you
I did a project about Chris with a friend in grade 3 yet so much of his work went over my head, I really appreciate videos like this and your channel for educating the youth❤
Oh wow! This makes me so sad 😢. RIP my leader! 30 years on and no tribute or commemoration of your passing. It tells you everything about the state of the country right now. You laid your life for all of us! You were trying to teach all of us about what is currently happening now - over 30 years later!
I remember the day you were shot. I was 13 years old, and I was in church for an Easter service. My mother came to church late with the most dejected look on her face...Chris Hani has been shot and killed! Oh wow! No one saw this come. Again, rest in peace, my leader. Amandla, awethu! Ayibuye, iAfrica ✊🏾.
@ronseaborne4087 Yes, it does actually. Similar to NG Kerk!
I grew up in South Africa - wonderful footage, research and narration. Please add Robert Sobukwe to the list if you can.
Please do Robert Sobukwe A South African 🇿🇦 Pan Africanist , brilliant leader
Typical.....plat neus
Legend. I'm a black man and not a Marxist, but this man fought for the freedom I enjoy today. He ranks higher than Mandela in my book
Chris Hani fought alongside my grandfather Cletus Fano Mzimela at Wankie campaign
He was actually assassinated on Saturday 10 April 1993.
Otherwise thank you very much for the factual documentation of the history of one of the founding fathers of the democracy we as South Africans are today enjoying, and to an extent taking for granted/abusing.
He paid the ultimate sacrifice in order for us to be free.
May the spirit of Cde Commander Chris Martin Thembisile Hani live long.
May his soul rest in peace.
And I was in junior high school in Gaborone, Botswana. I remember that day very well, the anger we as young people felt.
Chris Hani was a South African revolutionary.
And they released the murderer on parole... what a shame!
Insightful video on a revolutionary hero.
Interesting and amazing... I love South Africa, new subscriber.
Flat nose
Once a man called Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe said "Masses of occupied Azania keep a close on us as your leaders - if you hear us at any particular point in time in the struggle talking about some reasonableness or some broadmindedness denounce us as traitors to Afrika." Izwe lethu
Excellent documentary, thank you for the effort of enlightenment of our African history.
Oh you need an education
Please give us documentary about Rwandan Genocide
Vernon, you r right. We are tired of these foreign fools who claim to know our politics. Let them tell the world their countries' stories. Who is this fool to claim to know the inner workings of the MOVEMENT and its alliance partners?
Shake hand with the devil and The ghost of Rwanda is the best documentary about Rwanda genocide
You can go listen to kagame's lies..
@@ndamulelomugabi4032 you can also watch 'the 600'.
Please cover OR Tambo
Cry my beloved country 😭 this video brings so much emotion, it hurts to see what Chris Hani gave his life for
Too much, yohh 💘💔😭it hurts man
And to get betrayed by his own
Thanks a million brother, we highly appreciate your efforts to teach and inform our people of our heroes. 🇿🇦
Chris Thembisile Hani was greater than Mandela
You don't know what you are talking about. They are the greatest : Nelson Mandela , Robert Sobukhwe, Chris Hani,
Mandela time of 27 years in prison was much more worth the effort in struggle. Both Chris Hani and Nelson Mandela were the greatest. Great leaders and one of them would die before the others. Heroes like that don't live to see the fruit, though one will survive to form and lead the road. Thank you so much for this memory, please do Joe Slovo) (SACP ) , Robert Sobukhwe (PAC ) , Steve Biko (AZAPO ) , and Makwethu (PAC ) the generation of Africa need to know this, especially the SAn generation they are misled by crooks calling themselves heroes (of junk) and please do Mirriam Makeba too . That's just a start. Aluta Continua ✊✊✊
@@rainbowtrust6347 That's the White supremist Ideology, Mandela get him out if this Greatness of HANI-Sebukhwe, he Did Sh#t Nothing for my people That Mandela guy my Children will know our Ideology of Mandela
@Vukile Matibe and @Rainbow Trust Winnie Madikizela Mandela was the greatest. They took her husband leaving her to raise 2 babies. She wiped her tears, picked up his Kalashnikov, and charged into the battle field, with 2 children strapped onto her back. They arrested her in the dead of the night, and detained her in solitary confinement for almost 18 months. She emerged I'll, but stronger. Some who were detained with her committed suicide, others went insane, she went straight back into the battlefield, and goaded them to kill her. When they banished her to Brandtford, she continued to serve her people, she set up community activity programmes to help the people; kitchen gardens, soup kitchen, creches, mobile cinic. Mam Winnie was the greatest. Period.
He was never greater than Mandela . Remember that Mandela is the architect of this freedom and Hani was the commander of the military wing of the ANC. How old was Chris Hani when Mandela was imprisoned in 1962? I'm just giving you that assignment to work it out. Hani joined something that was already started but militarily.
Apartheid was the most vicious, worst and heinous racism on African soil. We must see to it that such a barbaric behavior never repeats itself, never again.
Talk for your self
....trust you me Marcus its only gone on pen and paper. Racism is very much alive and terribly RIFE HERE.
@@bennikodisang9245 if it wasn't for colonization and apartheid you would have been extinct today , the white man's laws prevented you from killing each other .
@#@bende and to add...black men raping and slaughtering of little black children for muti..imagine how terrified they were!!!...and doing it to your own poeple!!....its mind bobbling...one would think after what black people went through ?...and look what they are doing now!..
Greetings, not sure are you South African? I'm a born and bred South African , there is still apartheid in South Africa , worse
So glad i found this channel 🙏🏾
It's crazy how the issues tabled in 'The Hani Memorandum' in the 60s still plague ANC till this day. More so point 1 and 2.
Chris Hani we will always miss your legacy in our country✊✊
Great upload, Chris Hani was a great leader and man of vision. His muder a victory for the counter revolutionaries
He actually predicted it.
How I wish Chris Hani can see how the ANC her's turned out to be...😢
Sad part, ntate Mandela and the ANC knew who was involved in killing Hani
Absolutely true the party of killers
Some ANC members yes but not Mandeala
As soon as you mentioned his Soviet training I knew one of the main reasons he would be assassinated
Wonder if there are any statues to commemorate such great heroes of the liberation struggle in South Africa as Chris Hani, Steve Biko, Miriam Makeba and Walter Sisulu?? If not try pulling down some apartheid era statues to make room for these great heroes of the people. Salute to Hani's family from Kenya.🙏
We did away with Apartheid statues about 10 years ago and yes we have memorialised our heros
@@nlocnil3602 very glad to hear this and thank you for the info 🙏
I saw a video in which Chris Hani expressed his frustration at being ordered to stand MK down.... it's easy understand why he was at the top of the AWB hit list;
1. He was a firebrand and believed in using armed resistance to strengthen the ANC negotiating position.
2. If he got his way, the largest transfer of property since the Russian revolution would take place (probably violently) and the persistent inequality that persists in SA today would be no more.
@@bende743 by the time of Chris Hani's assassination, 🇺🇲 had told the Apartheid government that there was no 'communist insurgency' and that time had come for them to negotiate the end of Apartheid. The SA economy was in deep recession and this gave 🇺🇲 leverage over them. There would be no 🇺🇲 military or economic support.
With the collapse of the USSR the 🇺🇲 didn't need the Boers as a bulwark against imagined communist threats
@#@bende Indeed, the ANC got played, and Mandela was to blame. He had been in jail for too long, he wasn't equipped to discuss serious issues like the economy. The ANC held secret meetings and entered into agreements like the Pretoria Minutes that no one has any information about till today..
That said, the white supremacy power structure had the ANC over the barrel. Rumour has it when Tata Madiba announced his cabinet, the Pretoria regime laughed. Hard. They said half the cabinet were informers! Also, they had serious receipts against the ANC, they knew about the atrocities the ANC (MK command) had perpetuated against it's own cadres. Things that would have made people turn against the ANC. They picked the ANC because they knew it would be easy to control them.
@@bende743 so what it looks like their kids are going to have to fight it instead south africa needs hani we got malema and soon the rainbow nation will crumble for the ebony spear in a sea of crimson
Another hero who did not live to see the goals of their struggle. Do not forget John Chilembwe, a Malawian who did not live to see his goals either.
Am glad they rested in peace than to see how we became cowards nd w turned what they fought for a joke we are a disgrace and willingly let criminals to lead us nd d as they pleas ,am proud of our south african history and disappointed at what we became
because you brought chris hani on i subscribed to your channel
I am enjoying every one of your videos! Learning all that I never learned about in our Miseducation.
You are still mis educated....
@@user-oc2mr1po2c You don't know a dam thing about me! Where is your channel? Hater!
Very informative .....thank you
Great material and awesome informations! Kind regards from Brazil!
You are a spectacular narrator! Please keep it up
I still remember the news of Chris Hani's assassination very vividly. It was an Easter weekend, and everything stood still. During this time (in 1993) Nelson Mandela was given an opportunity to address the nation on SABC tv (mind you the president was FW de Klerk). In the days leading to his funeral, the country nearly descended into deadly unrest.
Do you think South Africa would have been a better country had we descended to the deadly unrest? Just asking...
@@Scalwag4087And you think you are better you people are more evil than us get lost.
I gree.think will be much better if he was Alive I don't think.he would have sellout like other combrades
I could really cry when I am listening to this
As a South African, his death still grieves me. He was killed by Afrikaans whites, yes, but the ANC didn't do much to protect him. Mandela hand picked as his successor and the fat cats in the ANC knew they would be held accountable by Chris Hani. May he rest in power, God Almighty knew that he would die inside if he saw the corrupt South Africa.
Because sell outs in AnC are the once governing us today
I love this videos..im a 61 y coloured male after forced removed from my place of birth in 1976..thnx to Mr Chris Hani and other members..now after all these yrs getting my land back again im ini a stuggle with white developers owning my mother land making millions and us leave with nothing..Mr Hani i miss U bigtime😮
I noticed that you identify with APARTHEID classification. Free your mind let it go that's what ancestors died for freedom. ASE'O.
Love you Brother...R.I.P♥️🙏
I love it hear... please do one for Sisulu... if u havent thank you
We will see u in heaven Sir Hani. Must be nice there coz no Rasist will ever set foot there. Our FATHER won’t allow any hate in HIS KINGDOM…especially the hate of a follow human being. I see on social media many Afrikaans people happy the the Polish hit man will be released. It makes me fume at heart. If it wasn’t for Jesus, I would hate them…but I don’t want to become like them for else I also will never see the KINGDOM of our FATHER and live forever.
Wait , he was released ?
Edit. Nwm , mf got stabbed and is currently hospitalized.
You are doing a wonderful job bros. Keep up enlightening us.
AB your channel is just bravo🎉
It was when you started talking about how the ideological differences between the SACP and ANC that I thought this video was going to tell us about the real reason he was eliminated...
lol im right there with you..
Death of Chris Hani & Josiah Tongogara in Zimbabwe bear striking resemblence, both men were for socialism & had enough following to ensure socialist/communist ideology would take root soon after independence. I believe Janusz Walus was planted in AWB to make the death look like it was internal politics. But both Josiah & Chris died because Britain did not want influential Socialist leaders to take over. Mugabe went on to be darling of UK committing heinous crimes on citizens, Britain looked aside. The race between China/Russia vs UK/US was so fierce it was defended even by killing. Even today, African leaders do not accent to power unless with blessing of the West or else people will be punished. East is no better, it picks the carcass of African states to further plunder.
@@nyahwe... No one could have said it better...
Pan africanism
Whites planted some people in both SACP and ANC to gather info on who was radical and against whites . Whites killed Mr Thembisile HANI
Nice
Please do Robert Sobukwe
Thank you Tatenda
Stephen Beko...Christopher Hanni...Legends...
I agree lovd my heros watching from cape town township
awesome post!
💪
They could not buy him to sell out so they eliminated him. Mandela agreed to sell out so they made him a hero for doing zero..
I totally agree with @khanyisanimkhize,i remember the day he was to be hurried,it was chaos everywhere around Soweto.People singing struggle songs,firring guns all over the place,people with placards of cris hani and yes people where crying and there was fear of retaliation by black South Africans for his death for over 4 years.This guy without a doubt was loved by Black South Africans,a true struggle hero indeed..💪
I will never forget this it was so intense thank God everything was sought out in South Africa 🇿🇦 🙏 it nearly jarpidise the New South Africa when the assassin killed Chris Hanni 🙏
The Chief of Staff
Jay-z looks like Chris Hani..check it out
It shudn't be a question of why he was assassinated,of cause,it is well-understood why,but who ordered his assassination within the ANC???
Apartheid government representatives, ANC representatives, SACP representatives, American representatives, British representatives sat in the meeting and reach agreement to delete Hani.
It I very heartbreaking to loose such a man of this calibre
Thank you for remembering him.
I really didn't know him. Thank you
He was truly a revolutionary hero!
I was 13yrs old assassinated 😢😢😢 and during his funeral I was seating in front of my dad on the floor cos that time history was my favourite subject at school. It was painful to watch ✊✊✊
Why was Chris hani Killed?
Why was Malcalm X killed?
Excellent content my brother
Love and respect from England 🏴👊🏾🙏🏾💯
I’m emotional, it hurts till this day 😢
Luckily he is gone
@@jj56x7.5mm OK???
Lets build our parishing SA. and stop staying on past this ma in campaigning votes for 2024
Chris Hani's death still pains me a lot. The country could have been different under his rule. At least he was not selfish but willing to share the wealth of this country rather those who are good in talking and doing absolutely nothing.
Our scares that will never heal
Hani was killed by his own ANC
Bullsh*t
Wasn't it Janus Walus?
no he wasn't, stop lying.
Really inside job
You are 💯 correct
Small update , few days after this vid. was released , Waluś was released from prison and then stabbed .
This is extremely wonderful documentary honestly written clearly like it is in the land of South Africa media attitude towards non-whites ❤❤❤
Siyabulela bantu base mpumakoloni nililwelwe ilizwe lomkhulu ikululeko izenani ,amaxhosa anizange naphumla makwedini sizukulwa sikatongu nani mampondomise mampondo
Do a documentary about Kamuzu Banda of Malawi.
He did. Go through his videos
@@nomahope3182 Actually he did not , Afristory Productions did.
@@SillyUwUBilly Okay, I must have confused the two channels
The sad part is that thers a large number of Polish far right youth who wave banners with the face of Hani's killer in that country's local football league. According to their twisted belief that assassin stopped the spread of communism. You will all remember Poland suffered a lot under Communist Soviet Union and the assassin was a Polish national.
Yes, I've heard about this. They even advocated for his release and would apparently fund raise for him. I always found this quite bizarre and strange.
We as Africans must choose whether we want to be free or not. The current approach of dancing around the issues of land ownership cannot do it. It is either we own the continent or Europe owns it. No more pussyfooting about it! We must decide now or we remain slaves in our own continent, or we perish! This is not the way to live. Everyone was born free in this world; therefore, everyone must live free in this world.
Most probably the CIA must have had hand in it.
Comrade Chris Hani, Steve Biko, Winnie Mandela and Julius Malema all my Favorite South African leaders.
Don't Forget Robert mangaliso sobukwe
I never was an AWB supporter but they had nothing to do with the assassination of Hani, he was killed by a Polish citizen, Janusz Walus
Well ifmt is realy easy to blame the AWB and apartheid the anc is still blaming apartheid till this day and the people believe the anc
We those who raised MK. Chris Hani biography was unspoken for 39years ago. 😢
This video doesn't give reasons as to why Chris Hani was assassinated. I would like to know the reasons. Please educate me on the reasons or tell me the reasons why he was assassinated. Thank you
His comrades know why....
Bruh , these Boers people had gall , their land ??? 🤔
They believe it's their land, they even wrote history and anthropology books stating that South Africa was empty when they came and they found only the Khoi and the San. The Dutch Reformed Church which is the main church of the boers one of their core beliefs is that the Boers are like the biblical Israelites and that South Africa is their rightful god-given land that they must rightfully fight for against its native inhabitants whom god wants to do away with. I kid you not
@@mongikazip. When you want to steal something from someone especially land outside your own continent you have to fabricate lies and falsify history to justify your actions. That was why all the archeological findings done by the Apartheid Govt that showed past great African civilization in present day South African and the neighboring countries were kept away because that would negate their lies (theory}. The apartheid even proposed the theory of the Bantus migrating from upper Central Africa or so which is also a big LIE.
That's sick
Point of correction! Chris Hani was more loved and popular than Mandela
The people chose him over Mandela , he was gonna be a President but his ideals wasn’t suiting the enemy
The ANC betrayed the struggle, and our hero Mandela was one of them
RIP, Chris Hani. 🙏🏽
I try to watch these videos with an open mind, but I dislike these colonialists and the ease with which they are able to treat Africans so abominably .
I wonder how did Derby Louis & Janus Waloes knew that he was alone?
It was just announced today that Waluz the assassin is being released from Prison
Correct. Happy days 👍😎
Saw it on the news too. SADDDDD SADDDD
@@robgeibert5971 Well he won't live 🤷🏾♀️
@@mongikazip Probably cause he's like a 100 years old by now 🤷
@@robgeibert5971 he's 69
Saddens me to see xenophobia today. Yes I understand south Africans not wanting to see foreigners overflood their country and I don't want that either in zim because we are dealing with it as we speak. More than a third of our population TODAY are from Malawi and Zambia
First time Chris Hani fired a gun was in Zimbabwe then known as rhodesia alongside Zimbabweans like comrade Dabengwa😢😮😮😢😢
You forgot to mention the crime foreigners do in SouthAfrica
So what ? How many Zimbabweans are firing guns on Black SAns today in SA?
@@Bbb-ml4gb What are you FAILING to say. Make that make sense and we can educate you
I hope you aren't foolishly trying to say guns are from Zimbabwe because that would be laughable. In Zimbabwe to hear someone has been shot is national news and almost unheard of. It's unheard of to hear someone owns a gun in Zim especially in the township unlike in SA where its the culture. Try owning a gun in Zim and you won't last a year before someone snitches on you. Guns come from Mozambique and SA.
Do you know cash delivery vans in Zim are in many cases only guys with a single action shit gun. Why? Because they never get robbed
Ask any South African who has been to Zim. Having your phone, bag or anything snatched is UNHEARD of even for a child. I can give a 10 year old the latest iPhone now and have him show it in public I know nobody will even grab it from homy. It just doesn't happen in Zim. If you don't believe me come to Zim I'll prove it to you by hosting you for a weekend free of charge and take you to our roughest neighbourhoods free of charge. I'll arrive in Johannesburg in December see my relatives (yes they are native south africans and related to my Zim ndebele mom) then I'll drive to Zim and will happily pay for your airfare back to SA all with my money
I live in the UK have only been to South Africa to visit before some fool tells me to go back to Zimbabwe 🙄🙄😁😂
@@Bbb-ml4gb If you are serious ask South Africans Moreso white south Africans who have been to Zim about security and safety in the two countries
I was shocked that even your so called suburbs like Fourways people are scared to walk outside at night because of robbers and rapists. Before you deny it I've got someone very close to me who lives on Richard Road by that round about near Anglican Church and they won't even walk to the Fourways Spar after dark. Even when when we were drinking at Lapha bar at Fourways nobody wanted to walk home they were all scared. As I said come to Zim 10 o clock you'll see people moreso women waling freely at night
This is our true South African hero. When he died my whole family cried. He was gonna be our president not Mandela
We lost a real leader here. We got a martyr that left prison richer than when he was arrested.
Why isn't this knowledge passed in schools
The terms of reference for negotiations were supposed to be based on the ANC policy. The negotiations and the constitution were predetermined. There's no way Chris Hani could have accepted the mess we find ourselves in today. The outcomes of the negotiations favored a few instead of the majority of the masses. The country's wealth is not shared amongst the people, and the land is not shared amongst those who work in it. The ANC policy was not the basis for negotiations. The mineral resources and the land are still controlled by the fat cats.
Our African Mothers should give us thousands Chris Hanis
