Apartheid formalized racism. It decided where you can live, eat, walk, who you could love, where you could go to school, what door you can use all based on race. Nothing in the law books today even comes close to that. Thinking otherwise is bizarre.

Was asked today how I can be an Afrikaner and DA. It is easy, by cultural background does not dictate my political views. Not all Afrikaners are conservative, and this has always been so. Secondly the DA believes in protecting every ones rights. so that is how...
