South Africa must document its history properly, or we risk people even denying apartheid ever happened. We need more documentaries and demographic data—without them, we leave the narrative to those with influence to shape the country as they see fit.
You're lying @elonmusk. These crosses were placed temporarily in 2020 as a symbolic protest following the murder of a farming couple, but they do NOT represent ‘one cross for every murdered white farmer’. They are simply a short-lived memorial to draw attention to criminal attacks that take place in rural areas including on farms affecting everyone (most victims are black). The last official crime stats say 6 murders were recorded in farming communities. 5 of the victims are black (2 farm owners, 2 employees & 1 farm manager). The 1 white victims was a farm dweller. 🇿🇦 law enforcement agencies are treating this category of crime as a priority and as stats are showing, numbers have significantly come down which means we are winning the battle.
Easter is one of the principal holidays, or feasts, of Christianity. It marks the Resurrection of Jesus three days after his death by crucifixion. For many Christian churches, Easter is the joyful end to the Lenten season of fasting and penitence.
The most violent century in human history was the 20th century.
The two deadliest conflicts ever were World War 1 and World War 2.
Neither was fought in the name of religion.
Stalin was atheist. Killed 20 million.
Mao was atheist. Killed 45 million.
Hitler was not motivated by religion.
Killed 6 million Jews.
The problem was never religion.
The problem has always been power and the humans who want it.
Religion is just one of the tools they use.
Take it away and they will find another.
March and March has been having peaceful protests for the longest time. They have never burnt vehicles or caused any destruction yet they have been mischaracterised as vigilantes.
What’s happening ku Gompo is clearly criminal elements that want to cause havoc and blame the peaceful demonstration in order to taint the genuine concerns of illegal immigration in SA.
This also exposes the lack of State capacity as public order policing is failing just like Home Affairs has failed to manage illegal immigration in the country.
South Africa is such an incredible country to invest, live & build 🤍🇿🇦
