Attacks In South Africa Undermining The Country And Africa
During the month of June, what is known as xenophobic and “afro-phobic” attacks have been occurring in the Republic of South Africa, a nation of 65 million which emerged from apartheid rule 32 years ago.
Five decades ago, the world became acutely aware of the brutal system of legalized racial oppression and settler-colonialism when hundreds of thousands of students walked out of their schools on June 16 to protest what was called “Bantu Education” which promoted notions of white supremacy and hostility towards Africans from other parts of the continent.
