The Trump regime has shut the door to nearly all refugees, and is violently deporting many who sought refuge in the U.S. But there is one very notable exception: white South Africans...
What a great history lesson. I only knew a small bit of this and it's horrific. It's a good thing that all the students protesting against apartheid, and encouraging that universities disinvest South African holdings weren't doing so today or even more of them would be jailed. But, let's not forget that Kamala Harris lost because of Biden (because white men say so). It had nothing to do with racism and misogyny because these can't be captured by polls.
Joy. This is excellent and should be posted by all on Substack and shared again by you. These South African farmers treated their workers worse than the lowest animal. Read of one who fed workers to pigs - African YouTube feed. As younger person, read of farmer who killed worker over death of a farm dog. I do not usually agree with Steve Bannon, but when he said that we are letting in people who are just as bad or worse than our white nationalist— he spoke the truth.
Thank you so much for the opportunity to learn and appreciate your knowledgable and understanding of Historical Events it doesn't surprise me due to the Historical Colonization process throughout The Caribbean Islands and the Slave Trade and the treatment of our Native People I've always said Education and knowledge is the Key to Not Only Success but to Appreciate Mankind We are One 🫶Proud of not 1% but my 6% African Roots and my 26%Caribbean Native Indigenous Descendants ... 🫶
Thank you, Sister Joy, for your brief history of the Boers settlement of the southern African region. I find their settlement myth similar to the resurgent Christian nationalist movement here in the U.S. and Zionist movement in Israel, i.e., a dominionists form of manifest destiny. They all draw on monotheism’s creation myth wherein the one-God gives Adam (his chosen people) dominion over the Earth and all its creatures, making their racial hegemony a theological problem.
I can't help but think that in a country with a high crime rate, especially where one group now finds itself out of power and seriously in the minority, that that group's members would interpret any crime against them as racial persecution even if it is accidental that they in particular were the victims. Also, since the whites still hold most of the property, it makes logical sense that crimes against property might be seen as disproportionately against whites - because nobody else has the property that certain crimes require. Perhaps we should talk about "crimes against properties and property holders." Surely not ALL property holders are white. Further break it down by how much property or other assets are held, and we may see a pattern more related to wealth than to race. Those are my questions. I know appalling little about South Africa, just enough to regard Nelson Mandela as a hero.
Well who would be surprised by that. He is who he is a loud mouth, low educated, racist, lies like breathing, sexual assault, etc. This just my opinion but the one person he seems intimidated by is Putin. My personal opinion I believe Putin has tapes on him from his days of his so call beauty contest it had there. There one picture of the two of them Putin has a big smile on his face 47 looks like a little boy when your Dad is getting ready to tear your behind up.

Well Steve Bannon should know…
This administration is Not pro life. It is pro money and pro white.

Oh joy, Joy, just what we needed in this country, more racist nazis. Just f*kin’ great🤬
Folks reposted that repossess farm properties will go to these South Africans. Also keep eye on who will benefit from cleared Federal land.
Thank you, Joy.
