Why does the coloured community still feel marginalised 30 years into democracy?

The coloured community arguably remains marginalised and largely excluded from mainstream economic, political and social participation.
So tonight we ask the question, why is this still the case almost 30 years into democracy? Joining Thabo Mdluli is the President of the Cape Coloured Congress Fadiel Adams.

Fadiel is 100%...love this man for standing up for coloureds

[@Alex-0001]

I feel the same...
BECAUSE WE ARE BEING MARGINALISED!
BECAUSE I AM A COLOURED!
FADIEL ADAMS AND THE CCC HAS STOLEN MY HEART!

[@lydiajohnson4467]

Open university and COLLEGES for coloured children. 😭😭😭

[@morneheemro8775]

I respect you Mr Adams. You speak the truth. I have experieced exactly what you are speaking about.

[@gadijasamsodien-fife3508]

I've always said education (with the necessary support) is the only thing that will change the situation for the poc.

[@kernboucher436]

Societal issues need society to play their part...start businesses, keep the family together and ensure education

[@LM-rg9lj]

Sadly, these are the off springs of our past

[@sergiowyman9077]

I'm voting for this party. No matter how long it takes. The people of the current government. Is so messed up. I quote TUPAC SKUKAR. even if we have a black president, nothing will change. It's like that in America and South Africa. We lack opportunities in our communities. When we do want to make a change for our future, the current system fails us every time. The change will come. Maybe not in my time, but it will. 30 years into democracy. And only ever was their a black person in the presidency. This is not about color. It's about inequality. We had coloured people who also suffered.❤

[@lydiajohnson4467]

In Cape town...
No university except a coloured child to be educated!!!!!!REVERSED APARTHEID.
ANC AND DA parties.
OPEN UNIVERSITY AND COLLEGES FOR OUR CHILDREN....WITHOUT US HAVE TO PAY LARGE SUMS OF MONEYS TO GET OUR CHILDREN EDUCATED AT LOCAL COLLEGES!!!!!
MR ADAMS
I SALUTE YOU!!!!
WE ARE NOT ALL GANGSTERS AND DRUNKARDS. 😭😭😭😭

[@eonpenny2261]

In our western Cape, the coloureds struggle

[@shirlypaulse9585]

We need to remind our people to stand together.

[@kautharsalie1238]

Very well said 👏🏼👏🏼 don’t even get me started on being a coloured person trying to get NSFAS 😭😭 we “earn enough” to not be funded but earn too little to survive. Most of the time this is also the reason why coloured kids end up trying to be successful in life in other ways rather than go to university (if this is what they dream of). Other ways that will take more time and harder work.

[@lydiajohnson4467]

We cannot get education that is where main problem stems from.!!!@@

[@romanussaal712]

Truth must be told, the reasons why Coloureds are so excluded in all sectors in all level of society in South Africa...Is in the Fine Print of History, The SA history does not recognise Kleurlinge or Coloureds as Settlers , who migrated from somewhere and Settled on land in South Africa....

[@trevormarnies2768]

The K A C words are embedded in the RSA constitution - kleurling Ama-Khaladi Coloured.

[@Sesothozee1990]

As a Coloured and Sotho from Mokhotlong lesotho 🇱🇸 it's nothing but harsh degrading for Africa in Lesotho I'm not degraded for my skin color shame my family lives in Senekal, free state belongs to Lesotho even the free state doesn't have this problem omg 😔 😟 🙁

[@vthomas2482]

🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@peterfrancis3865]

We coloureds must firstly start with our history ; by so doing we will be capable to stand together. The government will still suply weapons to gangsters. We coloureds must stand up and support each other.

[@petramyburgh506]

We should all support one another in Cape town, because we are mainly a mixed race. White and khoi mainly. I dont care what anyone has to say about this but it is true!!!!!

[@EmmanuelBediako-yg8ne]

So-called coloreds are not Khois, they’re Indian s Malays and Afrikaans mixed

[@amierlutta8356]

the interviewer keeps calling him Fidel as in Fidel Castro instead of Fadiel...

[@basilhendricks788]

When eff talks about blacks then it's not racism, when colourds talks about blacks then it's racism

[@user-ks7bb8xx1d]

Newroom Afrika, your question is misleading: ALL Black people in post-apartheid South Africa are marginalized.

[@MrMultiAfrican]

Develop that army yourself.

[@hekkiemowerstelevision4955]

Yes we busy
