The British at the time banned sporting links with South Africa yet they played football and rugby against Argentina and football against Chile and Brazil while these countries were committing human rights abuses under military rule another was Spain where British clubs played Spanish clubs in European competition when Spain was under the dictatorship of General Franco and were even running, skipping, jumping, swimming against the communist run Eastern Europe who themselves were committing human rights abuses

Maybe time for another such Documentary, 30 years into multi-racial, multi-cultural DEMOCRACY. Our population has increased by over 20 million people and another few million illegal migrants. Many townships have trippled in population. FAMILY PLANNING, perhaps as a start amongst many other things...?

A fine example of racism is to visit a shopping mall near you. You will struggle to see a member of the White race working in that zone . Their money is welcome but don't expect chain stores and malls to employ you if you are deemed to be a white person. Sadly, corporates perpetuate racism by complying with ANC evil labour laws that are despicable and against universal human rights. There are many white people who did not complete their schooling or do not have a degree that would be happy to work as a cashier, shelf packers, storeman, driver or shop assistant etc but owing to their skin colour they can't secure these ordinary jobs. The Toxic ANC GOVERNMENT is perpetuating racism with their evil labour legislation that contravene universal human rights laws. Sadly, It's also a fact whites with degrees likewise battle to secure positions .

During apartheid africans were killed for fun and then buried in the backyard. It wasnt a problem, because these people didnt count. While on the other Hand the Anc spared the lives of people like Dr. Death or others from the special squads if they commited in the truth commission. I doubt that the chinese or indians would have done that.

Good and rare record. The heyday of South Africa's segregationist regime was in the 1960s and 1970s. And with an economic boom that benefited the whole country, the ENTIRE country, again. However, after the fall of friendly countries such as Mozambique and Rhodesia, in addition to the end of the gold-dollar standard in the international monetary system in 1971, the country's economy was severely affected and did not return to the excellent performance of before, entering a chronic crisis. in the 80s. Not to mention the definitive spike in oil prices, which South Africa has always been dependent on. Therefore, it would no longer be possible to maintain a police state for so long, with defense spending growing exponentially, as well as the weight of international sanctions. In this regard, the end of the USSR in 1991 helped a lot to make the transition to post-apartheid without a civil war possible in the AFR. From the South and beyond, Namibia can be saved by giving it independence without it falling as it was with Angola and Zimbabwe for example. May the Boer country rise again and become a land of prosperity.
