Groups of Hatred
I'm curious. Did the end of apartheid bring the initiation of any organized hate groups? I'm talking about groups such as the Ku Klux Klan who formed after the end of the civil war in the United States.

Nope. The closest thing is PAGAD (People Against Gangsterism And Drugs) which was a vigilante organization of mostly Muslims on the Cape Flats that arose in the mid-90s. Their "highest" point was when they murdered a gang leader, Rashaad Staggie, on live TV news. PAGAD would probably have been crushed by the police state under apartheid, but it was eventually stopped, or at least reined in, by the police.

Afrikaner Nation?
Im from usa so just from searching on the web i found Afrikaner Nation or something...
There wikipedia has a flag that resembles the Nazi swasticker and calls for an all Afrikaner state with 1 language, 1 religion and self reliance on labour. I think groups like this are horrible for a DEVELOPING country. South Africa must remain unified, you can not undo the past but only change the future. From my liberterian americanized view the biggest problems in SA are crime, HIV, unemployment and most importantly RELIGION! I am considering ex-british empire countries to invest in approx 1.1-2.2 million in commercial real estate but with all the hate groups and racial tension in Africa it seems like India or New Zealand might be safer and more lucrative investment. The more I read about south african history the more upset i become. It sounds like it was a very nice country (for whites) under the Apartheid but the nation had 180 degree swing to the other side. An all white government one day, and an all black government the next?! This is no way to run a country! Segragation is an essential part of society and life in every country! But race should never play a factor! People should just be segrated by income and capital! If your stupid racist ancestors under stood this in the 1990's SA would have been a much nicer country for blacks and whites today! |
