      This is true. But the thing about "forgiveness" is that its for you more than it is for the other person. it sets the forgiver free from the burden of hate...the forgiven person has different path to walk....they need more then to be forgiven in order to deal with their demons.

    I'm watching this for the first time in 2024, and there couldn't be a better time for this to pop up on my recommendations.
    Fast forward to 10 years later, and our country is deteriorating.
    I really do pray that my generation is able to make a change for the better.
    There is never a day that goes by where I do not stop praying for South Africa
    I'm really hoping that this coming election will bring about improvement and peace among it's people 🙏🏾
    God bless this country ❤

      Mime was what about the terrorizing, torture, and murder targeting of white farmers to the response "blacks are more likely to suffer violence and incarceration.
      Wth is that!?? One is very INTENTIONAL hence "targeting" and is very obvious hatred and purely SYSTEMATIC RACISM (truthfully) the other is a result of the culture and crime within their own ranks. The two couldn't be further apart! And on the side of TRUE systemic racism, the very PRESIDENT sings about killing the bores/WHITES!

      Trust me it is no better there by ANY means than in America! It is all an agenda to divide and these ideas are all put in their minds just like "systemic racism" in America. These are all built on lies or straight up lies period put out for the agenda of ultimate divide and conquer. Do you not notice the same words being used there as in America??? If not "racism/slavery" beingnused they use "systemic violence" which was caused by the TRIBES FIGHTING INE ANOTHER and the problem SIN...laziness, bitterness, covetousness! And the people use it to steel and take what doesn't belong to them in a lawful country. They begin with with small "debates" backed with known lies in order to grow bigger into pure hatred.

      This is a African nation PERIOD! The discussion needs to start there.
      The "Rainbow Nation" is NOT anthropological. The Africans were in Africa long BEFORE the arrival of eurocoids to the planet.
      Notwithstanding, according to Dr. Johannes Krauss a biochemist from Germany...
      "100% of EHGs had black skin and blue eyes and seem to be the HERC2 gene deletion and the white phenotype is only about 4,000 years old..."
      In other words the first humans in Europe itself were from Africa proper and "they had black skin and blue eyes" long BEFORE the arrival of Europeans to the planet as we know them today.
      Finally, the African environment favored darker pigment specifically as a response to the African Sun's ultraviolet radiation.
      In the final analysis, it what your DNA says who you are not skin color.

      They get taught from a young age to work hard, manage your money wisely and contribute to the community. I taught at black and white schools. In black schools the parents mostly don't attend meetings regarding their children's educational difficulties. Most most parents go to see the teacher if the student has difficulties learning. They also are likely to help with school fundraising. I wish all groups to do well and grow together.

    Basters/Coloureds here we just see them as another tribe.. Basters are Basters but they don't exclude themselves to be a certain group people secluding themselves... This video have taught me something about south africa culture...
    Yes white people here exclude themselves from us.. But Basters they see themselves as black people.
    The only way we can change racism/ a narrative of racism is that white people especially older ones should bare in their minds the world is changing empires comes and go.. Accept each other black-and-white you will never lose your culture if you accept the facts..

      The only thing that can fix black people around the globe that's facing Racism. Black people must first understand what is White Supremacy and how does it work. Until we learn and understand White Supremacy, everything we know about racism will confuse us. The White South Afrikaners stolen the black people land, properties and countries resources, instead of giving back what they stolen. They have to create three Societies to fight against black South Africans. It's sad for me to see black people in South Africa, called themselves Coloured People, because of our Ancestors been raped by Colonizers and a Political Construct to have the Coloured people on their side against black South Africans. Coloured People, you have mixes of Colonizers blood, but you are still black people, with lighter shades of blackness. This a trick they used in the United States of America.

      It's because you are so focused on 'whites' that you aren't paying attention to yourselves. Whites just carry on, and make sure they educate our children come hell or high water, and make sure they are professionally okay. More of their energy goes into the right places.
      Poor families do not have access to the internet nor to good education. And since most poor families were black to start in 1994 the demographics remain the same.
      But there are plenty more middle class black people than there are white people. That's progress. It's just the percentages that are skewed. If 75% of whites are middle class then that's only 3.5 million people.
      You can't fix the poverty or the demographic disparity by 'solving' white people.

      There's a difference between the South Africans that is their home that is their native home that has been stolen from him their identity their culture their way of life they're living their land their structure their dignity has been stolen from them because they white people have used classism colorism and racism to depict how they are treating people that are native to South Africa and now you have a full fledge community of people that are not native people who have stolen land and culture who wants the right to be called africanos who want the right to call South Africa their home and it's not fair and the worst part of South Africa'spainful past and history is apartheid and how much destruction and how much force and how much control they had taken over and what they had done to the people that were native to this country and it is just despicable I don't know if anybody watch serafina but serafina was a good catch you get a big idea and a broad idea of what happened to children young African children were tortured beat and some of them even murdered it was awful and it still goes on to this day and South Africa you are not allowed at certain areas unless you have a pass sort of like antebellum slavery aware you got a pass from your owner and if you do not have a pass you are jailed or abused it is just another violent way that proves that Europeans have use colorismracism socialism and they have used these things against people in their native place and they have controlled so much of the thinking of these people these people were forced to learn how to bow down to white people they are not allowed to do certain things white people are to be served before their own people it is just a disgusting way of life and it still goes on to this day white people there also stand on privilege where they are allowed to do whatever whenever two blacks at any given time and it's disgusting the fight against apartheid I remember back in 86 I was just a little girl but I remember my uncle who was in the service who lived in Germany and England talking about it I didn't understand what a part that was until I got older and I understand the pain that the South African School through and it's awful

    I think a good discussion would be if ALL South Africans from all races sit down. And each person just tells their story, with no disruption. Just their life story. So we can hear what all of us went through, our backstories, our ways of dealing with the life situations we are and were in... Just listen to each other. We will never understand where each culture gets their viewpoints if we don't really open our ears and hear everyone's stories. We have so much prejudices about each other. Because we don't actually understand each other. I know this debate was many years ago. But let's get a storytelling going. I think it would be an amazing and eye opening experience.

      That wouldn't fix anything. Then it's an "Us vs Them" mentality all over again. District 9 explores that notion because the prawns are subjugated by everyone else in the country, even though the loophole in the story is that everyone then knows something that should have completely changed everything - that we are not alone in the universe - but conveniently forgets it to advance the plot.
      When people can accept others for who they are, accept that everyone's reality is different, that their life experiences are what shape them, that centuries of rule in a particular fashion have changed ingrained mindsets over hundreds of generations, then we can start practicing real tolerance.
      Otherwise, uniting the planet through a common enemy doesn't fix the root cause of the issue. The enemy of my enemy is my friend still leaves people as enemies when the external threat is diminished or defeated.

    I am 64 years old, read "Cry The Beloved Country" when I was 13, and lived through the end of "Jim Crow" segregation laws in the Southern United States, and the attempt to end "De Facto" segregation is large non Southern Cities. I'm also White. Until white people take a hard look at our centuries of racism that is deeply embedded in our culture and religion. Not much will chafe. And in all fairness, most people have difficulty with that sort of change after age 30, sometimes 20.
    South Africa has in immense amount of pain over race. Too many people on both sides of the equation hang on to that pain, and use it as a shield. And those who have power, are loathe tl give it up. I agree with Desmond Tutu, whites in South Africa are very lucky.
    But the larger issue that the whole country needs to deal with is moving from a mostly agricultural nation, that needs cheap labor, to an industrial and technological nation that is much more prosperous and can create jobs for more of it's people. It took Korea 40 years to move from a third world country to the powerhouse that it is today. You can do it too, but you have to stop the blame game (white folks) and accept that your black neighbors are God's children and deserving of a full measure of dignity, respect and INCOME.
    The United States is much closer to equality, mostly because the younger generation, people under 30, are much more aware of the current class warfare that is going on, and that if affects all races equally. It's taken 3 generations, but it's happened.
    Keep up the dialogue, let the angry white people march in the streets, their children will think they are crazy, their grandchildren will wonder what planet they were on.
    God save all of us from our own ignorance, fear and hatred.

      I agree with you Edward however racism is so deeply inbeded in South Africa, In young black people who were not even there during the aparthied era and white people who were taught that black people are violent and ignorant. Being a South African and currently living in a specific area that has two towns very near each other but very very different I have little hope left. Some white afrikaans people are teaching their kids racism at a young age, the first town is white upperclass and benefiting greatly from Tourism, giving black people that have a deep history in this area only demoralizing jobs with low wage. Some of the older black people are very submissive and white children have been seen to discriminate them in front of their parents. They are producing a new generation of a racist society. People like this and Sunette the women from this video make it very hard moving forward because they still believe they should be superior and that their problems are of greater importance so they instill this into their kids. 50 % of the newer white generation are full on racist and arrogant, a quarter recognize in themselves some racist beliefs and are trying to change slowly(you have to give them props for this given the belief systems they grew up with) but find it increasingly difficult when racial tension arise from their white friends and relatives and the rest are mostly English and are living the South African rainbow nation dream with some privileged black people.

    I am watching this in awe. I honestly am broken that this is reality. being from america and going through racism and to see in SOUTH AFRICA that they cant or are being told that they have no right to their ancestors land. And for the mixed race to say that the blacks dnt belong when they are part black. that is totally strange to me. And how the whites say that they have rights to the land that their ancestors took from the natives. I hope that one day this will be rectified and the people will heal emotionally and bring it all together. And as for me here i hope for the same because we are still going through the division. Once we as ppl of color understand that no matter how light or dark we are we are still the same in others eyes. Period

      @Peter September but y'all are black too. This is why it's confusing. Like you are in Africa the land of the blacks and you called or see yourself different from all others. This is how the european beat us and conquer. They mobilize, come together and defeat. But us no matter what country u are from your are still and African born within your tribe. When ppl start to understand this only then can the continent be a power to recon with. Even in Europe they know they european within their respective groups. That's all. And if u dnt see ur self as such and have those who try to connect with u then what is it to do. From my experience i see a lot of coloreds be closer to the dutch travelers who settled there and is claiming it lands but u fight with ppl who are from there and migrated from surrounding countries. San ppl are my ppl as well. Born in America looking at how divided the clans are is very sad. I mean look at is here. Most are trying to come together to mend and repair the damage of many yrs of killing, divided and forced hate towards each other. It's not where we want to be but it's better than it was. And africans born in America are trying to become one unite knowing that we are different and part of many tribes but have one goal. Freedom, self sustaining and not allowing 5hose who wish us harm to control our stories, lives and culture anymore.

      If people of color, especially people of African descent were to focus on creating new systems and getting rid of the old ones, there would be an instantaneous shift in the social and economic power dynamic on the globe.

      The main problem isn't bad leaders or poverty, the main problem that we face as a continent that cause all these socio-economic issues is the systems that we have in place, that enable such socio-economic to thrive.
      The systems that we utilize weren't structured to serve the African people, they were structured to serve foreign interests, that's why there's more capital going out of the continent, than in.

      Corruption only contributes to $60 billion of the total amount of money smuggled out of the continent.
      The systems that you are utilizing are not helping you, the African people, to economically grow your continent. Do you know how much America takes out of our country annually? $400 billion, not rands, dollars, and they have been doing this for decades, long before the ANC.
      We have a $410 billion economy, even half of that amount of net worth is enough to develop the country, yet we don't see this development. You can't blame that on the ANC, no matter how long the ANC has been in power, they would not have been able to smuggle such an immeasurable amount of money out of the country, it's impossible.
      The systems that you work under weren't structured for you, dozens of economists have literally said this, Moeletsi Mbeki an economist himself, has said that our South African economy, and the broader African economy was structured to serve foreign interests, not African interests.
      Africa economy was not structured to be industrialist, it's wasn't structured to manufacture, it was structured to be a raw material exporter, that's why you see so much poverty and underdevelopment in the continent.
      The Continent is literally in a debt trap because of organizations like the WEF. Western nations can pay their debt in their own currency, even though they are trillions of dollars in
      debt, yet African countries can't do this, they have to pay their debts with their massively devalued currencies into dollars, you know how economically depriving that is?
      You are asking what is stopping the ANC from changing the system? The ANC doesn't have economic power 🙃 have you ever heard of the sunset clause?
      This is the same story throughout the continent, africans don't have economic control of their own economies. 85-90% of corporations in the continent are owned by westerners, Asians and Arabs.
      You could go to Namibia, Zambia, Angola, Zimbabwe etc, and see the exact same thing, you don't have control over your own economy, if you don't have economic power, you don't have any transformational power at all.

It elicited some emotion as expected but nonetheless there was in the end a bit of youthful spark where young people brought in some interesting diverse issues and vied to continue without the elders who still live in the past and nursing their pains! I for instance feel that way because these youths are the ones who will carry the Olympic torch to light their future
    Let me delve a bit on what I thought was a pivotal moment! There were three or four of them but the one standing out is about politicians deciding what happens on the ground. You see when you have people like malema deciding what his followers need and by the way he is a very divisive individual then you can see what this topic is all about! Is rainbow nation dead!
