Ofcourse tyere are black afrikaaners. My mama spoke multiple languages including afrikaans. I was so lucky to have ger un my life. I get that afrikaans community are worried abiut their culture dying out. The new generation are leaving for better opportunities and the ones who dont have the university degrees are also leaving because there are no jobs available or given to a bee candidate. However afrikaans is very much a part of who we all are. Too many positive and amazing traditions which we are all so proud of.
Mandela change nothing he lied by telling people he will change their lives, instead of telling people the truth in life to achieve you must work hard.even today black mojority still waiting for government to give everything and the educated ones cannot create jobs for themselves
Mandela was a traitor
I was 14 years old when Apartheid was abolished. I ❤️ SA & i hate it at the same time😂
So sick of SA still on about race….the only color that matters to me is green 🤑 💰 💸 💲 🪙 💶
Stop creating trouble in our country. Is it not enough that Politicians are creating devisions all over the west.
Excellent content
Many people gotta be dumb. You’re still a farm worker you don’t own no farm what’s the point of owning a farm you can’t sell or put up for collateral to get a loan
Yes the idea was to double the economy and money to include all…not to halve it. Everyone became poorer (even the wealthy) due to inflation and cmosing of businesses due to race based labor laws, resulting in reduced productivity, and skills, lack of schools built in the last 30yrs resulting in low competence and ethics and skills, lack of accountability to ministers, elitist corruption of those in ministers positions handing huge budgets to their friends etc. Time to stop talking abt race and the oast and start talking about skills economy and the present and future
whats the name of the theme in the last minute of the video?
My question is is apartheid really gone in south Africa. For me there is still a systemic apartheid
You can give a man the right to a one man one vote, but you cannot give man social equality.
The poverty in south Africa is primarily caused by the the ANC policy and corruption and bringing the country into crime theft bby elite ANC BEE apartheid against White's
High incompetent ANC and affirmative action
All in all the late Nelson Mandela and his ANC who got the majority government but couldn't change the constitution will be forever blamed by the poor black people of South Africa. After Mandela, the ANC and it's presidents have also done absolutely up to nothing for 30 years about the Freedom Charter of the people. Things got worse!!!
Indian's coloured and Black's were celebrating when Nelson Mandela was a President ❤
9 MILLION WA DLALA
I am proudly South African. I was born during Apartheid and never understood it. As white school children we regularly had to practice fire drills and bomb scare drills. Some were real some weren't. I did not come from a wealthy home. If you were white and mixed with black people. Your phone was tapped and you were watched and in some cases murdered under sinister circumstances. South Africa today is still a divided country within races and across races. The colours of the rainbow are separate. Yes today I refer to South Africa as the licorice all sorts nation. They are sweets that are colourful and represent for me the unity in our country. I worked as a teacher for decades and soon realised we are pretty much all the same. I thoroughly enjoy your documentaries. You are one of the reasons I fled an abusive relationship because I commented to my then abuser that you spoke English so eloquently. Keep on being Awesome. Blessings from South Africa. Sue
Prison conditions had not improved after Mandela became President. Up to 50 prisoners are kept in a single cell
I think it’s sick looking at how poor the people live and then right around the corner. You have all these people that are privileged. They weren’t even born on the land, but they took it anyways.
I’m having déjà vu watching this documentary. It’s like watching Israel take Palestinians land.
Is it SA now a broken country without electricity? And it 30 years after apartheid?
That's what comes with the freedom given by oppressors after you apologize for being oppressed, ek sé.
Beautiful movie!! thank you for making it! Learned a lot about history and present situation in South Africa…
If South Africans don't learn to live with each other you are not a true South African.
I love black people. They will always be our heroes. I was raised by my parents and a black woman nanny. I saw her as my own mother. She lived with us cooked for us everything.
Rose tinted glasses with a lot of hype over an overrated Nelson Mandela. Perhaps it would be more realistic to look at South Africa today and it has not been happy ever after. The ANC got to rule the richest country in Africa and where are we today are the ordinary people better off well a lot of ANC leaders have become very rich but for the majority of South Africans where is their share. You have a country which is in a mess with rampant corruption which is one step away from being a failed state.
Poor performance could not be a result of extremely IQ general population. Oh, actually that is exactly what is causing poor performance. But we can’t say that, can we!
Seems similar to another country… I think it starts with Isr-
God bless the black people still living in townships. I hope they all get moved to luxury houses and a high standard of living for black people not in slumbs not in tents brick and glass middle class for all black people in poverty. God bless black people 🙏🏾 ❤
We welcome to Zimbabwe
Shocking fact, during apartheid we had less crimes in the cities,that said the crime rate is through the roof, unemployment is higher and all thanx to the corrupt ANC government.
Sad and shocking today because now everyone is suffering if not holding hands with corrupt ANC officials
yalsan mandela is man of the hestory is god of the hestry
Democracy is also for those in power.
Very good! I learn a lot that I dont know before
Great ending to a very diverse and complex story of South Africa
R9 million for that house? It looks kak 9:15
As a white South African.. I ask to be freed from the burden of multiculturalism.. give us the land that is the most useless.. where no global conglomerate wants to delve or have any use for.. where we can be safe alone amongst ourselves.. our culture, our people..
my baas is 'n Suid-Afrikaanse afrikaner met die naam Trevor
Lol
Townships and living conditions isn’t because of apartheid it’s because of incompetent and self care of those who are in power…
Nelson, left us to soon. RIP MADIBA
It’s easy to pull something down, it’s harder to build something up.
Trevor McDonald is one of my all time favorite interviewers! He’s such a Jewel!
They still dream about apartheid.afrikaans.
There wasn’t anything as Apartheid! The name was and is ‘Aparte Ontwikkeling’, translated to the colonial British empire English it is ‘Separate Development’. The british empire just crossed out the ‘development’ part to retain their cheap labour and big business! The ANC, led by their noses, by the British and Russian empires, Wouldn’ talk and negotiate in Good Faith and that is why SA is where IT IS AT!
such an intelligent and insightful documentation!
Thank you
No one's going to talk about the fact that the reporter looks exactly the same as he did nearly 30 years ago in that video with him and Nelson Mandela!
There is an amazing beautiful white lady, Lorna, who would go every day from morning until night, for over 20 years, into the most dangerous, impoverished place on the face of the earth called Kliptown and help those people. She got the Johannesburg City Council to instal water taps, toilets, etc. She saw God heal the disabled, witch-doctors who threatened to split her head open with panga's came to Jesus, a corpse raised from the dead, food miraculously multiplied. Today many children are named after her in that area.
Haha that white man called Non Afrikaans , " foreigners " . Is that so Dutch man ?
Thank you we need more of you
Did he mention Kimathi and all freedom fighters they called Terrorist? No 😢 left there generation in pain and alot of pain? No they are opening the wounds. If you don't understand, thay are socialphaths in there name of supirorty complex Sick isn't? They don't tell you England is falling Down. Too late to ask for forgiveness, you messed our generation.but God of our forefathers you killed are watching you. I know you fell it.The God of Africa will never let go just like that. He sees all you are doing
