Shop NowApartheid has been a staple of South Africa for centuries, and despite its official abolishment over two decades ago, it still continues to plague the people of South Africa today.
Julius Malema, leader of the far-left Economic Freedom Fighter (EFF) party, recently led a huge crowd in chants of “Kill the Boer” – an Afrikaans term referring to white farmers – as his supporters said they were ready to do anything to get their hands on land owned by whites.
The Democratic Alliance (DA), a centrist opposition party, is filing a case against both Malema’s EFF and the ruling African National Congress (ANC) with the United Nations (UN).
But what can really be done about this situation that has existed for so long?

Malema is no stranger to racism or inciting violence against white people.
Jim Hoft reported that he previously admitted wanting to confiscate white-owned land and “cut the throat of whiteness”.
He was even arrested six years ago for playing “Kill the Boer” at one of his rallies.
This kind of hatred perpetuates all too easily when it comes to South Africa because apartheid was never truly abolished.
Instead, there has simply been a reversal in which black people are now favored over whites due to past wrongs committed against them under colonialism.
John Steenhuisen from DA announced that their UN case would focus on Malema’s incitement of ethnic violence and also charge ANC national government for not taking any action against him while farm murders continue escalating due to his rhetoric.
However many members in this corrupt organization likely agree with Malema himself making it hard for real change come about.
Change needs more than just legislation but instead calls for understanding between different groups within South Africa itself if positive progress is ever going to happen here.
It will take time and dedication from everyone involved but hopefully soon we will see real transformation take place within this country so everyone can live peacefully together without fear or prejudice getting in their way.
