Are we truly destined to repeat the past?
Not so long ago, Zimbabwe was just as driven to implement such acts; as racist and inhumane and contradictory to a democratic nation as they might have been, promising to offer the African majority what's rightfully theirs. Years later, here we are, in pursuit of the same fate: Failure and Instability.
It is truly sad to witness a nation suffering from poverty and inequality. This is true for South Africa. Nonetheless, this is not the permanent solution. The creation of divisions between the African and White races is what led to the implications of poverty and exclusion suffered by the majority in the present era, as a result of an oppressive regime.
Ironically the same evil still exists, yet now it wears a different face, the corrupt African dictatorship.
Our values as a society are being challenged, yet we keep quiet. It is time citizens stopped choosing which creed they belong to, whether African or English, and stand united as our late Nelson Mandela envisioned.
