There have been many issues raised in this chat, for example classifications and the persistence of divisions but hey, this neglect, I want to say that sometimes if we do not visit the areas where each group stays as was determined under apartheid, we will feel that just our communities are being neglected. We grew up thinking coloured people are much better off than us and that we're the ones who live in poverty. In time I've come to see the many similarities between African black and Coloured black communities. Certainly, the appalling living conditions are the same. I now live near Westbury, I see the poverty also in Newlands and so on, but it's very similar to Vosloorus, where I grew up. I just wanted to highlight that we share some experiences. BEE has never benefited anyone I personally knew or heard is from Vosloorus, for example. So, the analysis for me misses the point about class. Working class black Africans are not being serviced by the government, as well. Maybe its better to form links between our communities.

The thing about apartheid is if you research it you dont see what normal life was like. All is see is the riots and killings. so lets look at some black people you can research and see what their life was like. Angie Motshekga was well educated studied at witwatersrand, she travelled around south africa teachering and giving lecturers, she then get a job at a school and in 1985 started working at witwatersrand right up until the end of apartheid in 1994..at that time she was fighting apartheid and setting up rallies. i view that as a good life. Thabo Mbeki lifed in a small village but was able to get such a good education he as accepted to study economices in london. He then got is masters in economices in england. At the time was the best education on the planet. he came back to south africa. After a few years he had to leave to get training around the world to fight apartheid. again i view as having a good live. how many people from a small village or any south African are going to Londan to study and get their masters? Cyril Ramaphosa his mom was a cleaner and dad was a policeman. Still had enough money to send him to really good schools. he become a law clerk at a white firm in Johannesburg. while he was doing his legal studies at the university of south Africa. He had a job, while studying, while fighting apartheid. There are so many examples of this. Also understand im not staying they didn't face hardship everyone does. im not saying they didn't face racism, We all do. im saying apartheid was hard on people based on classes more then race. look at South Africa now. there is a line of suffering if you are above that line SA is amazing, if you are below SA is the worst place in the world.

1994 we as family voted ANC Since a lack of services frm DA & ANC we changed now to another party.

The second speaker needs to clarify what “other African” groups she is referring to. Who is using coloured people and how are they marginalised?

I'm mixed race, we are Africans in Africa, our Coloured and Indian communities are badly neglected, we still waiting for our housing papers after 40 years, the other people have passed on and never received the title deeds. Shame on you ANC, we who stood with you during the very early years. You have no regard for us, the Coloured and Indian people, it was like this during apartheid, what's the difference now, you have forgotten your humble beginnings. Unless you are buddy buddy with the government, you get what you want, and live high. See first to the starving people of SA, first before giving to the other countries. Their governments like Palestinians and Hamas government got money from rich countries, but did nothing for their own people. My vote will be swayed this time, I'm done.

Our youth are without jobs, they take drugs to curb their hunger, they steal because their parents can't afford to feed them with their pension money, they have to pay rent, pay for transport, pay for medications, nothing for luxury's like fruit to eat, it's a dam disgrace that people live worse than animals. No one wants to speak up for us. My heart breaks for our people.

The racism black people experience from Coloured in Cpt doesn't help.

Eastern cape- Uitenhage- DA councillor: If you complain they ignore you. We did not complain in 30 years. 84 year old retired nursing sister had a hip operation must take her dirt to the corner.The mainstreet is full of dirt after 5. They dont want to come and clean the streets and come and see how they clean wearing new blue suits

The First Lady to speak is incorrect, Apharteid classified Indians and Coloureds as separate groups from blacks.

Yes the plight of the coloured people has been totally neglected by the ANC let's remember yes in the Cape the coloured vote is predominantly DA for good reason let's please take into account that theDA only get a limited budget to govern the Cape under ANC rule please don't vote for any splinter parties Vote DA the only competent capable party that can govern by giving the DA more votes we can change the rot that has set in let's unite and vote the ANC out of power

True

Youre talking the trust God blessed you

It's so sad that this conversation as well as government strategy to raise the narrative of colour( that is racist in it's core). We should even entertain it and agree to abolish the race but rather concentrate on community development. MoihSanMike

The ANC only benefitted their caders no one else

You don’t come up with a party that favors one group of people… that’s not smart at all. 😂😂😂

the title for this video should change from coloured communities to poor communities , we need to take this out, not a good look for action SA, i can assure you as a coloured person that grew up in a poor coloured community , as bad as it is there , black people are still going through worse, but again the race thing is pointless, this should be a war between classes, when over 90 percent of wealth goes to the few this is a huge problem, and its not just government , its banks, large monopolies. Thats the real issue, government works for them not the other way around. Look at the anc funders , the anc is just the puppets

Vote for whoever you wish into power. The only way to understand this landscape is having a salary paid by government for officials who do nothing for us as human beings. Take note we are not recognized as humans but people that ticks a block to pay their salaries. Wake up people.

Use people like Ian Cameron for this case of little Joslin, GOD In JESUS HOLY NAME hsve Mercy on little Joslin

Young man i salute u

One thing, apartheid did it's job! Even after 30 years of it being abolished, all South African's are still psychologically wired to segregate ourselves in life and in our minds. I still pray for a day when we can fight for ALL South Africans to have a better life regardless of our "race". We all have a history and an ancestry history, but at the end of the day we are born here, we live here, and we should all be called South African! I don't want to be called a coloured anymore (I know I am one), I want to be called a South African and live a better life with ALL of my fellow South African's, but I guess we gotta go through this first.

Yho what an all-over-the-place, uncritical discussion. Yho, a waste if time.

Open your ears and listen

It's very true, they were never white enough and after 1994 never black enough. My hope is the parties can stand together and unseat the current mafia government. They need to be lifted up and more involved. The coloured people need to get involved and vote, not be apathetic, get the anc out to change the direction the countries economic direction. I recall sitting in staffing meetings and appointments were always black/white and hardly any appointments for indian, coloureds, asian, in other words no consideration of comptent people but all race based.

The present government is an uncaring government therefore SAns must register to vote and vote them out and a new government that will put SAns first.

Yes Fatima

Yes they are. Hugely neglected😢

Yes coloured people were also victims of Apartheid but the primary reason for the existence of Apartheid was to separate Europeans from the Bantu Africans. That lead to black South Africans being more underdeveloped than every other race in the country. Thats why affirmative action was more focused on black South Africa. Coloured vote is definitely important though, but if they don't trust your party there's onlyso much you can do.

Coloreds dont want to Africans they dont want to be black that gives them problems because today black include the so called coloreds. They were treated better in apartheid times but now the feel that they are treated worse than they were in apartheid times. They are bunched up with other blacks which are neglected by ANC hence they feel the pinch. The think blacks are enjoying it all No its only the blacks who are politically connected who enjoy it even coloreds who are politically connected they enjoy the gravy train. It jobless for all who are not connected. Its high cost of living because of white owned banks Rand manipulation. We are all in this because of ANC bank Rand manipulation and white supremacists

Cullinan diamonds are from near Pretoria, not Kimberly.

Coloured politics are usually this weak 😢

And how many coloureds still did not get back their homes in District six, hey DA???

What does the so called coloured really want kahle, kahle?

I’m neglected too

Zeerust mafikeng anc have neglected those homeland like they did to coloured community roads are bad there is no water .😭no service delivery at all.

These political parties ain't shit when it comes to representing and fighting for the coloured community. The only party that has made a difference and is seen to be taking up coloured issues is the NCC(National Coloured Congress). They might not be everyone's cup of tea, but they willing to fight this dirty fight.

Why can't premieres of 8 provinces create jobs for youngsters like the premier of gauteng so that they must have something on their table. Last week the Premier of gauteng appointed 32thousand assistant teachers he was issuing out letter of appointment appointment. What is difficult for other premiers to uplift the unemployed youth and those are the poorest provinces.

It's so true 💯

I like how the direct question from the host about the historic fact of the coloured vote was avoided,he even had to rephrase and say directly historically that the coloured vote is and was always NP .ive never seen such an easy question being avoided and ducked that

This community has never voted for Anc yet they expect the attention of Anc they say apartheid was great

Coloureds has been ignored period.

@user-pr2pt5vm1j PA is also race based. In fact it started out as a coloured party , then Gayton McKenzie saw that he won't get far with that mentality because coloured people are the minority , less than white people if I'm not mistaken. That's when he decided to include other races , but deep down it's still a coloured party we all know that he's just including other races just to campaign for votes.

I swear I answered before I heard her answer. Which means some truth to our claims.

I believe we need all politcal parties that want to be representitive of their local communities form a coalition, and work as servants to the people, with that mind set, we can build the Rainbow Nation, the Nelson Mandela Dream. The ANC and The DA have failed us as a people, the EFF has greed as their basis, moving people from the Eastern Cape to Western Cape to improve their voting power. The Coloured communities are forced into slum areas, where drugs are being pushed, guns are made intentional available to opposing gangs to create the problems that we have as it stands today, Jobs for the coloured folks are extremely hard to get and the only other options left to our people is through crime to ensure food on the table. CCC/NCC along with the PA and Good Party should look at forming a Coalition. DA and ANC have had their chance and failed the people of this country. So Far from the Rainbow Nation as we stand.

Mackenzie we are praying fr ur search fr Joslin Smith.

I am not South African but I wish the government could remove the race in your IDs. I believe that there are so many people who were excluded from good opportunities based on what is written in their IDs, not on their expertise. Good luck on your next elections bana ba Morena!
