ADDENDUM: Since the publication of SA's Easy Election guide, the resource we relied on for the political spectrum illustration, the Rise Mzansi team has clarified their party ideology is centre left, not centre right. However, some analysts view the party's manifesto as one which "promises social democracy but delivers neoliberalism." Read more here: https://mg.co.za/thought-leade....r/opinion/2024-04-28

Why South Africa is still so segregated
Why South Africa is still so segregated SouthAfrica 22 Views • 2 years ago

How centuries of division built one of the most unequal countries on earth.

For decades, South Africa was under apartheid: a series of laws that divided people by race. Then, in the 1990s, those laws were dismantled. But many of the barriers they created continue to divide South Africans by skin color - which in turn determines their quality of life, access to jobs, and wealth. Racial division was built into the fabric of cities throughout South Africa, and it still hasn't been uprooted.

That's partly because, while apartheid was the culmination of South Africa's racial divisions, it wasn't the beginning of them. That story starts closer to the 1800s, when the British built a network of railroads that transformed the region's economy into one that excluded most Black people -- and then made that exclusion the law.

First 100 Days of South Africa's Unity Government
First 100 Days of South Africa's Unity Government SouthAfrica 30 Views • 2 years ago

The first 100 days of South Africa’s Government of National Unity have brought both notable successes and significant challenges as the coalition navigates its new role following the ANC's poor performance in the recent elections. Analysts and industry experts assess the overall performance of the GNU, highlighting key achievements and obstacles encountered thus far. The discussion also focuses on the collaboration among the various parties within the coalition, addressing any tensions or successes that have emerged. Recent public statements from ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula provide insights into the ANC’s internal dynamics and strategy within the GNU. As power dynamics continue to shift, the future of the GNU is examined—will it maintain stability and cooperation among its diverse members, or are further fractures on the horizon?

How did South African Apartheid happen, and how did it finally end? - Thula Simpson
How did South African Apartheid happen, and how did it finally end? - Thula Simpson SouthAfrica 20 Views • 2 years ago

Explore how Dutch and British colonization of South Africa led to Apartheid, the strict national policy of racial segregation.

--

For 46 years, South Africans lived under Apartheid, a strict policy of segregation that barred the country’s Black majority from skilled, high-paying jobs, quality education, voting, and much more. So, how did these laws come to be? And how did this era of institutionalized discrimination finally come to an end? Thula Simpson explores how colonization led to the national trauma of Apartheid.

Lesson by Thula Simpson, directed by Aya Marzouk, Giraffics.
