Correct! Great analysis! When there will a greater or larger African middle-class, there will also be more respect. What's needed, is more educated and economically independent African people in South Africa, there will come more respect. The lack of respect is also due to the economical and educational gaps between groups.

Melissa Manson In some countries, extra marks are given to women in order to encourage them to go to University. This is because girls do more work in the home in comparison to boys. This gives the boys an unfair advantage. When the same ideology is practiced with different colors, suddenly quarrels and complaints. It is true that most businesses in South Africa are Afrikaans owned. In order for black folk to be seen, they have to push. Since they can do nothing about the business ownership situation besides opening shop, they will make good use of the employment one. Its all politics.

[@Marks191]

I`ve never been to South Africa, but what i can see from this video is that racism is still a very touchy subject over there. Awesome video, it`s nice to have this as a discussion group. I just cannot understand why it is so hard for some people to have, at least, respect for each other. Up here in Canada, it is exactly what you mentioned in the video. Today people live more in harmony, but there is still a need to preserve First Nation territories and their traditional knowledge properly.

[@BahadorAlast]

Thank you for that. I very much agree with you regarding Canada. I absolutely love this country, I do believe we have a lot to be proud of and there are certain Canadian values that really unite us, which in my opinion people who come here should be open to. At the same time, with regards to our First Nations communities, we need to acknowledge what happened in the past and I also believe the culture of the First Nations and their history needs to receive more attention.

[@Marks191]

Bahador Alast That`s true and twenty years is really a very short time to expect a deep change in people`s mind, mainly from those who lived during apartheid. On the other hand, you guys should be really proud of the live you have today. Of course, we always have internal problems and so on, but hope time will guide you to a more comprehensive and respectful environment.

The majority of the citizens have moved on. Sadly many still teach their children the old ways. Both black and white. The one gentlemen mentioned the they were 6 people living in a little shack. They have been like that for 16 years.....indicating that the 21years of the new government has provided them with nothing. In any community you will have people focussed on the bad and who are stuck in the past. Let them be and let them dig their own graves. Those of us who choose to live better lives and live in harmony with others, we are the ones who are truly free. We need to stand together and show South Africa and the world that there is more good than bad in our country.

[@riaansmit8328]

As a Cape Townian I myself also am aware of racism, but I do experience this from other cultures as well. As been mentioned because of the diversity of cultures in this country alot of the people struggle to embrace one another. The behavior vissible is that every culture has their own ethichs and that is set as the norm for each group's ideology. Compromising with a different culture is unacceptable. But there are people that do respect others, but they are in the minority.

The neighborhood segregation has nothing to do with racism. It has to do with the way humans are wired, in that they feel more comfortable with their own kind. That's why Polish have their neighborhodos in Chicago. Chinese have Chinatown in San Francisco. It has always been like this historically, that people of the same background settled togethor, because they feel more comfortable with their own kind. But I DO agree with that guy's comment on the ANC. It's the same in America. Black people still blame slavery for Black opression in America. And what kind of Democracy is it, if one party has been ruling over 20 years? That's no different than Communism.

[@briantravelman]

I actually agree with you. As long as they're not murdering innocent people it's perfectly reasonable to treat others the way you yourself have been treated. I personally wish everyone could just forget the past and live in harmony together, but that's not how the world works.

[@etiennemarais3750]

Apartheid has earlier roots than when the 'Dutch Afrikaner minority' came to power by popular vote via the National Party. In fact early origins can be traced back as far as 1776 when the British implemented the first race-based land act in the British Cape Colony. Notably the British arch imperialist Cecil John Rhodes was a super racist and dreamed of a United South Africa in which the white man would rule supreme, exactly what he got after defeating the sovereign, independent, anti-colonial Boer Republics by means of methods of barbarism. The newly established British Union of South Africa implemented a plethora of race-based laws, including a 'morality' type act. It was from these prior principles that Apartheid rose and hence Apartheid can not be associated with 'white Dutch Afrikaner minority' alone. Interesting that the media of the time only aligned themselves with the blacks' cause AFTER the N.P. came to power. Also, the pass laws was introduced by the British, so was the practice of ringing bells after sunset to chase all non-whites out of town. Furthermore there were plenty of English speaking South Africans who also supported Apartheid.

[@donhackfile2727]

THE BANTU EXPANSION The notion that Black people migrated from West Central Africa downwards to the South a 100 years after the Whites had settled in South African is utter nonsense and if you research it you will quickly discover that there is no archaeological evidence or any genetic evidence that has been conclusive enough to substantiate that such a mass migration ever took place but the validity of most studies and at best this White Theory is solely based on linguistics. The similarity in the languages is the only submitted argument, there's no DNA proof Mr "Williems" because just recently a Cultural DNA study was done and the Genetic study involving 220 participants representing 11 populations across southern Africa , revealed around 2.3 million DNA variants per individual, according to the journal Science this challenges the theory that modern humans came from just one place in Africa as well. So let's revisit the story of who the Khoisan are? THE KHOISAN were not a Southern African Tribe but they are descendants of Slaves who arrived with the Dutch East India Company and the term Khoisan was coined by Leonhard Schultze of Germany. (Please read: Oxford Research Encyclopedia - African History - Slavery at the Cape and Ethnology of Africa) I have copied an extract from the Oxford Book and it reads "Slaves were transported to the Cape from a wide range of areas in the Indian Ocean world, including South and Southeast Asia, Madagascar, and Mozambique. The majority were sold to settlers and worked as domestic servants in Cape Town or as laborers on the grain, wine, and pastoral farms of the Cape interior. Throughout the 18th century slaves outnumbered settlers. Although there were few major revolts, individual resistance was widespread and desertion common. Some runaways joined indigenous groups in the Cape interior, while others formed more isolated maroon communities." What happened to those maroon communities? They became what is now known as the KHOISAN and this name was established in 1905 Leonhard Schultze. So now let's focus on the man who gave them this name Leonhard Schultze, he was a Zoologist and Anthropologist. In his research he says that in Southern Africa he discovered two groups of people and they were the Hottentot and the Bushman which he later compounded into the group called KHOISAN and he says that the word Koi came from the Bushman when referring to the Hottentots. Okay, so where does the word Koi originate from then?. Koi or more specifically nishikigoi (錦鯉) is an informal group of the colored variants of the Cyprinus carpio. Several varieties are recognized by the Japanese. Koi varieties are distinguished by coloration, patterning, and scalation. Koi are Japanese fish! Remember earlier in the Oxford extract. It says that slaves who ran away joined indigenous groups in the Cape interior. We all know that when two different races mix, a multiracial child is born. Hottentots and Bushman (Maroon Communities) they were similar in terms of their built and features but varied in color, why? Bushman runaway slaves who fled into the Bush and did not want to join the indiginous groups (Marron Community) and then the Hottentots ARE THE GROUP OF SLAVES WHO JOINED THE INDIGENOUS TRIBES --- even the word Hottentot is a Dutch word from German hotteren-totteren ‘stutter’ (with reference to their language, in which clicking sounds are used). In Southern Africa we all know which groups of people use Clicking sounds. the NAMA are located in the North most parts of Southern Africa and even to this day can be found in Namibia ( also home of the HERERO people), Mozambique, Zimbambwe, South Africa (Most around the Kruger National park) and the NGUNI people( Xhosa's, Zulu, Ndebele, Tsonga, Sotho etc.) If you check the map the closes tribes to Cape Town has alwas been the XHOSA's and they have predominantly 5 clicking sounds where in the case of the Nama they have three clicking sounds. Okay let's focus on the Hottentots again. If it is true that Schultze took the word Koi-koi from the Bushmen who themselves used this term to refer to Hottentots (meaning that the Hottentots were indeed mixed race) then this proves without a measure of doubt that in fact they were descendants of those slaves who were Asian and lets not leave out the fact that Schultze himself was a Zoologist who had traveled the known world and he must have known about about the Japanese Fish called the Koi which is distinguishable by it's coloration. Either way Khoisan is of foreign origin. Schultze named them Koi-koi --- due to their multiracial features and please I know some of you try to say that Khoisan are the NAMA people. They are not Khoisan and this is most evident in their language. Which brings me to my final point. Khoisan people use Afrikaans and the development of the Afrikaans language can also be attributed to slavery. Slaves came from many different places and spoke different languages but the NAMA like their close relatives the NGUNI and HERERO use Clicking sounds when they speak...Click Click Click. Remember what studies say about THE BANTU EXPANSION most of the studies use similarity in our languages to prove we are from North African and if you search you will find that all the African groups in the Southern Territories use Clicks, all of them except but one and that is the Khoisan, they mostly use Afrikaans. A language influenced greatly by non-African languages. So how can they be the original people? I Xhosa and my name is Cumani and Mr Williams says he is my great grand father and yet his surname is European, a name of a slave master and that's a fact. White people are trying to write us out of our history... research about Willie Lynch and then google South African Shacks...see who pops up! Another thing guys. We know that in South Africa we have an existing Ethnic group of Colored People. I am not in any sharp or form saying that they are Khoisan. I was informed by my Colored colleague that they are two separate groups as well. I just pointed out that the Khoisan are also mixed race and I acknowledge them as South Africans like I acknowledge White South Africans as well but I just wanted to set the record straight. NGUNI people are not children of the Khoisan! Wee need to respect each others identities if we aim to succeed as a Multicultural society!!!

This shows so much, the same experiences around the world, as every country deals with the "operational" realities that are the common aftermath of institutionalized segregation. It is impossible to legislate people's attitudes which will only change through universal growth as expanded understanding and learning. We can each contribute to helping create fairer, more just societies; certainly this is not simplistically political change, it is a change in how each of us helps each other to expand holistic learning about universal human values. Thanks for giving us a "realistic" view of the current situation for the people who are experiencing these conditions and changes first hand.

This was a very interesting doc. N a good take on in general how South Africans see each other. Yes it's mostly race. We blame most of our short comings on one race or the other. A very crucial part of those short comings should be blamed on the corrupt gov and their failure to deliver the basic promises that they made when we voted for em. Instead of building schools, hospitals, varsities etc they loot n waste all the money on themselves. As a result,we as South Africans get confused, frustrated and start complaining tht there's not enough. So we turn on each other n blame it on race. The fact of the matter is we need to hold this gov accountable and make them deliver on their promises or get out. We need to unit not be divided. SA is big enough for us all...

I love you guys and thank you for doing this video. Economic freedom we've got but the ANC after president Mbeki squandered our economy. Before Zupta if we can all recall the rand was R6 rand something to the dollar and even planning to find ways to stop the momentum of the rand. Our economy was growing rapidly (above 5%). Then came the Zuptas, we'll we all know how that unfolded. Before Ramaphosa was elected, some white famers were planning to give some of their land to the black communities and mentor them into being farmers, then came land expropriation without compensation (daylight robbery if you ask me), then our rand moved from R10 to above R15 against the dollar, white famers stopped whatever they were planning to do. Too many wrongs I can say, but I think every one who's not biased knows the truth. When Madiba was still the president, most white business man were giving him money to rebuild this country whenever he asked for. As a Black South African, I understand why some white people still hate blacks (mostly thanks to the ANC).

Now the ANC government has had more than two decades and still unemployment climbs, the squalor increases, regime corruption is doing its best to best continental standards, institutionalized racism blossoms on the law-books... These are simple facts that prove only one thing: things are not as simplistic as Marxist rhetoric wants us to believe. I read that even my old alma mater (one of the two at least, namely Fort Hare University), confirms their disgruntlement with this regime, and have rejected the ANC at the SRC polling stations in favour of the DA. The hackneyed view of white oppression and black suppression doesn't tally any longer, as it doesn't improve anything for those who truly suffer. Do yourself a favour and ask WHO the "whites" are that have pillaged the actual gold reserves of the SA Reserve Bank, and who else profited.

Touchy feely men/boys and butch women/girls...all trying to figure out who they are when ..well they are human beings. We are white or pink. We are western civilisation.

A friend of mine was born on a white farm in Johannesburg. His entire family lived on that farm as live-in farm workers. The farm was their whole world because during Apartheid that's how they ate. But the owner of the farm did with then whatever he pleased. He raped mother, uncle and child (boy). He was there until the late 1990s. But after the end of Apartheid, his family slowly could move unto other job opportunities. Up until now, my friend never went to school. His childhood was spent farming sometimes with his bare hands, eating scraps of food and being raped by an old white man. So when people say Apartheid was better for everyone, my whole body convulses.

It's good for young people to be talking and listening and thinking about racial issues. They are the people of the future and racial issues are important to debate - with a cool head. Personally I am amazed that the country has managed so well. Credit must go to Mandela for a peaceful transition. We have the example of Zimbabwe to see what could have happened. The future is never certain so people of South Africa need to find a stable future, rather than be concerned only with their own racial group.

[@MrPabloingles]

South Africa's Economic Growth will start to falter in 2019 with the constitutional passing of the Land Reparations Without Compensation which is another word for Governmental Eminent Domain. With the present farmers on the land being kicked out by the native South African's the first economy to crash will be the agricultural sector. in 2020 with the emigration of 8.5 to 9% being threatened by genocide, the whole SA economy will begin a massive fall begining by at least a -10% drop and much worse from 2021 and beyond. This is due to the policies being set by the EFF and the ANC for this economic and political catastrophe. South Africa's destiny is to be a ramshackled mess for the next 1000 years onward from 2020.

Apartheid spatial separation still acts as a huge barrier to socio-economic equality. Lack of public transport infrastructure means that integration has been slow in coming to Cape Town. The indigenous peoples of the Western Cape are the San, Khoi and the mixed race slaves and these groups have been largely marginalised in the race based politics of the new South Africa.

[@lynnerasmus9416]

I find your documentary a little skewed, although I completely get that it must have happened unintentionally... May I suggest you change your title to Racism in the Western Cape after Apartheid? The situation in Cape Town is completely different, as said by the woman at 6:00. I think unless you travelled to other South African urban areas you won't be able to do justice to the issue on video (even then, it's a complex issue that's very difficult to tackle on film). Well done on getting someone to argue about the youth of the new South Africa, the world needs to hear that. Also, the second half of your documentary seems to touch on wider issues than just racism, like the economic divide (eg. townships vs big cities that are direct neighbours) and the lack of educational opportunity, which is a socio-economic problem that is largely on the hands of the people that run this country. I think it's really important to try and move the discussion towards that rather than staying on Racism, which tends to just condone conflict instead of fostering progress. Thanks for your video =)

[@BahadorAlast]

Lynn Erasmus Thanks Lynn. I can see where you're coming from. I wanted everyone to share their perspective about the country as a whole. It was not my intention to have it lean to one side over the other. Several people do touch on the fact that it's very different in Cape Town than it is in Johannesburg. I am doing a similar documentary this month when I'll be in England, so your advice is very helpful because I'll address that when asking questions. Thank you:)

[@marindasmith9815]

brownbear900 We whites from South Africa were the only settlement of Europeans outside of Europe not to kill or hunt the indigenous population in the 1800's and the only settlement to hand the country back to the indigenous majority because we did not commit genocide against them and turn the majorities into manorities like Canada, USA, Austrailia, New Zealand etc. We did not hyave a dollar on each scalp brought back. We developed our tribes into the brightest and best GDP figures in Africa.We are less racist then many other cultures around the world....

[@marindasmith9815]

Please go and look at my FB page...Phillippus Rudolph Smith and see my friends...Pakistanis, Nepalis, Bengalis, Fhillipinos, Saudis, and all shades of South Africans....I am not racist as I had a marriage across colour lines and fought for that right in the Houses of Parliment but to think we can ever eliminate racism or that any form of social engineering will work anywhere is disillusioned. One gets racists in all nations and tribes, groups and I do not condone it but I understand it having lived, visited and worked in 14 nations in Africa and the Middle East. Nationalism is a form of racism...Yes, we have to eliminate corruption as it is killing AFRICA and investment in AFRICA. Take care. May GOD be with you.

Coming from Cape Town I can proudly tell you that CAPE TOWN is a progressive racism state with a clear racial segregation, institutional racism. Equality goes beyond diverse cultures, economically it is more than 80% white ones wealth, in joburg every is equal economically, financially and racially. The apartheid government that transformed to what now is DEMOCRATIC ALLIANCE is making sure that no one deserves to be on top of the food chain other than whites. Having political power means nothing if you have no control over the economy and the DA is making sure not to lose that power in cape Town. The ANC on the other hand sold out on it's people before 1994 so that they can stay in power for a long run. It has failed in the educational sector the only way blacks and coloured can get economic power. It's a win win game for Politicians and Whites and it's a losing battle for the majority that was and still is treated like a second class is South Africa.

The CATALYST to #BlackGroupEconomics What I think poor South Africans need to do is come together and build an economic base, that has a legal structure with transparency and a financially sound foundation; to provide the capital that every black small business (new, old, start ups, etc.) could benefit from.. across South Africa. Everyone benefits; bar none! WE ARE DISRESPECTED because we don't practice #BlackGroupEconomics 1 million blacks pledging $1.25+ a week towards a BLACK Economic FUND to finance all black projects! $1.25 x 1,000,000 x 4 = 5,000,000+ Yes; start with one million black South Africans and perfect it then spread it. There should be multiple locations for members could select projects for immediate funding! This is what's going to CREATE JOBS FOR BLACK MEN & WOMEN! $1.25 is not a lot for anyone to contribute. Create cooperatives and stop depending on the Government for what you could do collectively for yourselves! South Africans need to form large co-ops and POOL their monies; that's the only way to solve their immediate issues. Do you know how many jobs, businesses, clinics, restaurants, farms, factories, etc. could be created with 5 MILLION DOLLARS+ a month? It's one thing for black folks to post positive images all day.. every day, but there's another thing when we don't take collective action to create and provide for our community. There's a strong force of habituation that locks us down in a cycle of monotony; which also prevents us from UNIFYING on the most critical issue! Many who claim to be conscious are not; they're still governed by the REPTILIAN BRAIN; which is seen in their behavior. Asians, Whites, etc. get together for a few drinks and before you know it, they've created a business from an idea that came up over their beers. Hopefully the right black folks would see our cry for economic unity and take action! Let's make this go VIRAL: #1MillionBlacksForEconomicEmpowerment.

I'm sorry; I must be looking at this entirely differently. Would someone please tell me how the "whites" are racists when the ANC regime has around a 100 - possibly more - pieces of legislation based on race. I even recall seeing a job ad some months back where it actually listed races from black and ending with white. That people - yes the ANC and their like minded ilk - still blame apartheid and whites for something that happened 20 plus years ago astounds me. What about the racism in sports like cricket and rugby. I look forward to the day South Africa faces sporting isolation because of the racist policies implemented by the ANC. There are a few realities that need facing up to here. The ANC are fascist, racist bigots - if racism was wrong under the National Party then it is also wrong now - the ANC cannot have it both ways. All those people that are trying to appease the ANC need to wake up. The ANC has done tremendous harm to South Africa and it is about time they were also consigned to history. It is also time that when the ANC and their followers start throwing up the race card then they should look in the mirror in order for them to see what a modern day racist is. I will not hold my breath though.
