Government launches plan to combat racism

Its aim is to provide direction to activists and institutions dealing with racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and any other form of intolerance.Racism, Xenophobia and other forms of discrimination remain a blight on our democracy.“Our trends analysis report has identified the number of complaints relating to equality, particularly those relating to discrimination based on race as being the highest this has sparked concerns of whether the scourge or racism is on the rise.

Abigail Noko from the Office of UN High Commissioner for Human Rights reiterated this. “It is a call to all of us to condemn notions of racial superiority or hatred always incite racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerants.” In 2001, the World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination Xenophobia and Related Intolerance adopted the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action.It was launched in honour of the late struggle activist Ahmed Kathrada.“If Uncle Kathy were here as we launch the nap, I’m sure he would remind us of his

words when he said that, the fight for non-racialism equity and equality is not short term work but generational work, it requires a united effort and a lifetime of commitment.”

Start with BLF and EFF

That's great news. Abolish AA and BEE.

But rampant black on black xenophobia is ignored. OK

GOOD … NOW IT CAN DISCIPLINE/ARREST/FINE ITSELF BECAUSE OF BEE & AA ..

Governmente? Is this possible nje?

I should have known that our useless government/sisters were planning this nonsense idea instead of dealing with high crime which results in innocent people being killed daily they start with this never ending rivalry with whites we can live with racism but cannot live with crime

Anc means, I suppose only for whites..but the Black people it is okay. Is this what they mean?

Only 44 days to elections?🤔

SABC = ANC Mouthpiece

How exactly? This is not different from saying 'the government is flying to Pluto' we are interested in the how, not these campaigning moves to fool people long enough to get votes. We want to see actions.

That’s rich coming from MYANC and CyrilRamaphosa that continuously insult minority groups and promote polarization

Bathong , ANC is trying to tackle everything same time 😂😂😂😂

Good idea but please combat nyaope Government please in my erea young girls as old as 14-17 selling their bodies for 5rand 😢😢😢please... cops are being bribed...

MYANC Except if you're black, right? Apparently the false narrative doing the rounds is that black people can't be racist. If you are a human being, you can be just that. Oh, but first you'll have to drop the double standards, and the tribalism, then MAYBE you can start on this.

combat tribalism first
