[…] Race with Me: When have white people done enough? […]
Hi, great blog. I’m still not getting it though. Is Cape Town more racist than Gauteng? Here in Joeys we see plenty mixed race couples, I even had a black boyfriend for 2 years (he left to the UK). So not quite sure what you’re on about here – unless Cape Town is still behind the times. Most black people don’t actually want to feel as though whites must help them at all – its embarrassing and unnecessary. There are rich and poor of all races now in SA. So I suggest you spend some time in Gauteng, visit some coffee shops there and you’ll quickly get the picture – things are maybe 10 years ahead of Cape Town.
hey Sharon, thanks for your comment. According to my friend Sindile who lives in Joburg and has spent a bunch of time in Cape Town it is just that. Have heard from other black friends who come here for a time that Cape Town is still quite racist. Spent time in Durban recently and it seems like the same thing is true there. i think Joburg is quite different largely from a money perspective – it is the melting pot of making money and so people have been forced together and living together has become a more natural thing so i imagine it’s a lot better but i suspect there is still much beneath the surface that still needs to be worked on. But ja, it definitely seems like we have more work to do here…
