The coloured lady with brown hair nailed it. As a black south african i honestly thought i new the difference between coloureds and mixed race but I guess i was wrong. I learned something new today. Thank you.
The lady in the middle did a great job explaining it, much better than those who attempted it online. Yes, she left out a lot of important information and other intricate things but she summed it up well.
Racial history in the country goes way deeper than skin color, that's rule number 1. Go into the whole saga around Tyla identifying as "coloured", the backlash in America and South Africans' defence of Tyla. The colored lady here explains it so well! 2. Black identity is also about much more than skin colour, especially since the 70s with the rise of Black Consciousness Movement in SA. Black became more of a political term as the BCM drew inspiration from 'Black is beautiful' of Garvey, du Bois, the Panthers etc. to unite the oppressed in SA behind the cause to fight Apartheid. Nowadays the racial group 'African' can be presented as an identity category distinct from Black which is, as I said, more a political term. A caveat is that this generation has moved to align Black with colour in keeping w/ the rest of the world. I love how the coloured lady here was able to highlight the role that the rigidity of Apartheid categorization played in forging whole cultures built on racial classification. This has turned out to be hard to undo among blacks even 30years after the end of Apartheid.
We all have misconceptions about each other. Nobody understands anybody or at least try to. I feel misunderstood by most colourd folks I meet as a black person.
The brother from Ghana still has much to learn and truly grasp the profound impact of systemic injustices and how their legacy continues to shape and affect future generations.
I am coloured by being from mixed races on my father's side my great grandfather was a Mauritian slave who married a black woman and from my mother's side great grandfather was a Dutchman who married a blackwoman that's how I became who I am mixed race.
Mixed race(bi-racial) = White parent + Black parent. Coloured = Multiracial parents ,grandparents,great grand parents,great great grand parents etc = Multigenerational. Every coloured genetics is different from the other , for that reason its been determined its the most diverse in the world. All races in one person. In my case 16 ethnicities. Most coloureds does not know that fact. Your looks will detemined your heritage,indian,chinese , khoi /San etc. Coloured can look like any race in the world. Coloureds come into existence in 1652 when the settlers brought the slaves to SA from Madagascar,St.Helena,Maurituis, China, India , Indonesia and North Africa, All these intermingle with each other and the settlers and indigenuis Khoi and San = COLOURED
Why not we have just one. Mixed or Colored. It appears colored identity is just more than one generation of a mixed race. Essentially, a colored person is mixed but not vice versa. Isn’t that just making it complex? And how do you identify a mixed race from a colored race visually? Not much difference I suppose
It is something only coloured can be able to do. I have encountered many mixed race people and from the first look I could see they are rather mixed with different race parents.There is just something amiss. Any coloured can testify to that.@@Abebeeeeeee
@@AbebeeeeeeeYes Coloured people can be 3-5 generations are mixed race lineage but you must not have listened to this video, this woman at time 6:00 explained everything accurately about what Coloured people are. One cannot come centuries later and try to reclassify a whole ethnic group to suit your narrative with layers of historic lineage, she emphasized it has nothing about skin tone shade and all about a unique South African Coloured culture. Mixed race sometimes can be loosely used for both biracial and Coloured people but to simplify things, mixed race is biracial as explained above. Again you'll be disrespecting a whole community of Coloured people and their culture by forcing your own beliefs onto them. Please avoid doing that.
@Abebeeeeeee They r all the same. Mixed nd Coloured are thr same people Infact mixed nd coloured are on the whole world just under different titles depending which country u r in. If coloureds go to UK THEY fall under Mixed race. IN USA they will be called Biaracial. Etc etc We are one the sooner we accept that nd unite be a force we will never be respected nd accepted

The coloured mix is very diverse not all of us are mixed the same even in our own families...i am mixed with South Pacifica and German dad's side and Zulu and British mom's side...i am more closer to my Pacifica Heritage
Beautiful topic and well done to the panel. I however wanted to ask when one of the ladies explained that some of them can't identify with being black because they don't relate with black people as some are a generation of mixed race to mixed race. So if that is true, how or why is it so easy for the same people (again I mean some and not all) to identify with being Khoi/San/Nama/Khoekhoe/etc. and not Black? That is where I truly find myself confused with this topic. I am happy though that we are educating our people on this topic
I think the culture has perhaps been maintained through the generations. Some coloured people speak Zulu or Xhosa at home too. It just depends on your family. But others have absolutely no African heritage. Mixed with Indian and Arab or white and Malaysian… those are the ones who don’t have any premise for identifying as black
@@RastaAfricanGentleman My personal opinion is this, as a black you have your culture e.g Zulu, Xhosa etc. As a coloured person, some of us only started our historical heritage journey recently. That include DNA, archives from one province to the other to gather that information. It took us 5 years as a family to get records dated back to 1901. Some records stated that from my maternal side we are Hottentot and Bantu. My dad side creole from Madagascar. However final analysis or result concluded that we are predominantly Khoi. The Khoi and San people has been through the most. Rape, genocide committed against them, hunted down like animals and ostrised. Events that is not even in our History books. My ancestors are a forgotten people. I made it a point to educate my children, nephews and nieces. My ancestors needs to be honoured because they have paved the way for us. I will not let them be ignorant, when it comes to the family history ever again. Our parents were quite about the past injustices and I will not be silent. I would like to emulate that pride of my heritage like the black folks. We are all African ultimately and need to embrace our differences. Apartheid was meant to break us, but it fostered a whole new culture that I will embrace as a coloured
It's a cultural thing. Black South Africans still have all their ancestral languages, customs and social structures intact. Within the Khoisan groups it's essentially only the Nama and San people who's cultures "survived". The rest were all assimilated.
The young Are changing. Many of them don't even colour, tribe etc. They don't see colour. In Grade 0,.. Y younger one, was the only white person in his class. G3 SHE "Was in the only a few whi child in Grade 7 Every day, the kids would come over to play. I spoiled like them. You guys are awesome. ❤❤ 😅
Coloured people are mixed race, if we're going by the English definition of race, which is defined as physical charasterics such as skin colour. But, in SA, you kind of blend race and ethnicity/nationality into one. So, coloured is a mixed person with a blend of European white and black African, or other.
@@justicet4All buddy, I know how genetic works, just cuz daddy is white and mummy is black doesn't mean the kid will come out mix. So let me ask you, what part of my statement is "not really" the answer?
@@Lovelee95There are numerous fully black and Indian people who reclassified as coloured during apartheid. Similarly numerous "undesirable whites" got classified as coloured. Literally became an issue that was discussed in parliament in 1986.
Last night the algorithm on TT showed me Polynesian people. The first video was of a guy who was singing beautifully, what's being sung in the coloured community - i.e, golden oldies. Upon reading the comments, it lead me to realise that the guy and the group he was with are in fact NOT coloured people! They LOOKED coloured in every aspect! I couldn't believe my eyes that they in fact weren't! It was a different experience to the "Brazil" and other experiences I've come across previously.
Coloured nd Mixed are same people just being in different countrys. In Europe UK etc Coloureds would be called Mixed race. In nigeria its halfcaste, In USA its Biaracial, thn thrre meztisas, Molato etc etc every country has a different title but they are all in the same bracket. ASZ LONG AS yr parents are different races just like children being born i. Interacial relationships the children are mixed nd they fall under same as coloured. Etc etc..coloureds nd mixed are born from 2 different races. I wish I was part of these conversations. Theres no difference colourdd nd mixed race we r all in the same category under different titles depending which country you were born nd live. Guys its like Blacks from all different countrys they are all Blacks just different tribes nd live in different countrys but they are all Black. Same goes with all other nations. Sorry Coloureds of RSA u guyz mixed. Race s all.over the world are the same people just doing things differently depending on which country u were born nd raised. And zcoloureds are nit all light skin some are browner some are darker some were born black/India, Arab/Black. ETHIOPIAN/BLACK ETC ETC the children will be darker complexion but are still coloured. Coloureds come in different shades of colour. Some are light like whites but curly hair etc depebfing who u go go marry after some coloureds msrry whites. Some Black or chinese or japanese etc etc this is why Coloureds nd all these groups of people have different shades of colour skin.
When the white lady said 'I understand what my ancestors did and I don't sympathetise with that anymore'...that's what an average white person in South Africa would say.
3:52 WRONG!!! Ethiopia or as it known before WWII Abyssinia was colonized heavily. Its actually one of the most colonized regions of the world. Dont believe the none sense "Ethiopians" say they were never colonized in every breath. Because lies are repeated so often it doesn't magically turn it to be the truth.
😮 Thanks for that! I didn't know Ethiopia was colonised. I know they were occupied by Italy under Mussolini's rule but had no idea they were colonised. Who colonised Ethiopia?
In 1936, Ethiopia was occupied by Fascist Italy and annexed with Italian-possessed Eritrea and Somaliland, later forming Italian East Africa. In 1941, during World War II, it was occupied by the British Army, and its full sovereignty was restored in 1944 after a period of military administration. So it was never colonized. They stayed for few years and were pushed out of the country
Is there coloured in Zimbabwe. I don't think this lady from Zimbabwe understand what coloured mean. The South African explain it right nit Zimbabwean one
@@W2024-d6e There are Coloureds in most if not all Southern African countries but i think only SA and Namibia have actual coloured communities due to apartheid. In Namibia they mostly call themselves 'Basters.'
People should stop blaming apartheid for everything i know it was bad but 30 years down look at our schooling 30% pass rate there are other races that were brough here under difficult situation but they made a success of their lives they didnt sit and complain or wait for hand outs
The Zimbabwean lady is not Coloured she is black of mixed ancestry and that is why she couldnt understand the question asked and she couldnt articulate it. Being Coloured is not about ticking boxes. Its an ethnicity which comes with culture. It only exists in South Africa and Namibia. Botswana, Zimbabwe, Lesotho and Swaziland dont have Coloureds they just have mixed people who are tswana, Sotho, Swati or Zim. There's a difference. The lady in the Cargo is Coloured and that is why she could easily articulate her explanation.
The audacity to decide someone's nationality just because you don't agree 😂 When did she say that being coloured means ticking boxes? How do you know what exists and doesn't exist in the other countries? You've been? You've seen?
@@Boho-j9t other countries didn't have Apartheid. Only Namibia and South Africa experienced Apartheid and that is why those 2 countries have coloureds. Listen to that girl that explained their ethnicity how it started. Families were split for the creation of this nation. If you were born of a black mother and a white father then the government would snatch you from your mother and throw you in this new community as an infant and you would be breastfed by another coloured woman and not your own mother. So you would no longer be your mother's baby you would be a part of this new community of just mixed people. So it's literally an ethnic group created.
Zimbabwe has coloureds. There are coloureds who left South Africa and moved to Zimbabwe back in the day during the colonial era when the country was still called Rhodesia. Even up today. They're still there and they call themselves coloureds.
@@beeew-z5t Ask yourself, where does this idea of classifying African people as black comes from? Who were the South Africans before they were known as 'black people'?
@@Superior_Woodthe San and the Khoisan. Also the talk is about the after effects of apartheid. Those divisions. I’m coloured and many black people do not accept me as black. But we are all African and born on and of the African continent. But black has always been a term reserved for African indigenous people in SA. Outside of it, it includes most coloured people who have African heritage.
@@beeew-z5tActually, in SA all non-white people are black-politically so. Black doesn't refer to race. The 4 major racial categories are African, Coloured, Indian and White. So it's black African, black Coloured, black Indian and White.
@@berengsello5645 Rhodesia/Zimbabwe had integral colonial ties with white South Africa…. Rhodesia was literally an extension of South Africa - a rainbow 🌈 nation on a smaller scale than SA - in 1923 Rhodesia was given the option of either being a Provence of SA or becoming a self governed British colony , meaning , Rhodesia would govern itself without interference from Britain - Rhodesia chose to govern itself … Afrikaans was not an official language in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe - that being the difference with the two countries .

The audacity to decide someone's nationality just because you don't agree 😂 When did she say that being coloured means ticking boxes? How do you know what exists and doesn't exist in the other countries? You've been? You've seen?
I also didn’t understand the question. It was not very well articulated.
@@Boho-j9t other countries didn't have Apartheid. Only Namibia and South Africa experienced Apartheid and that is why those 2 countries have coloureds. Listen to that girl that explained their ethnicity how it started.
Families were split for the creation of this nation. If you were born of a black mother and a white father then the government would snatch you from your mother and throw you in this new community as an infant and you would be breastfed by another coloured woman and not your own mother. So you would no longer be your mother's baby you would be a part of this new community of just mixed people. So it's literally an ethnic group created.
Zimbabwe has coloureds. There are coloureds who left South Africa and moved to Zimbabwe back in the day during the colonial era when the country was still called Rhodesia. Even up today. They're still there and they call themselves coloureds.
@@knowz2367 that I can believe💯 but this one in the panel is just a biracial girl.
9:15 Now you see what you just did!
You confused 'African' with 'Black'.
How so? It’s accurate in the SA context.
@@beeew-z5t Ask yourself, where does this idea of classifying African people as black comes from?
Who were the South Africans before they were known as 'black people'?
@@Superior_Woodthe San and the Khoisan. Also the talk is about the after effects of apartheid. Those divisions. I’m coloured and many black people do not accept me as black. But we are all African and born on and of the African continent. But black has always been a term reserved for African indigenous people in SA. Outside of it, it includes most coloured people who have African heritage.
@@beeew-z5tthe Khoi and San are black Africans they are just a different tribe
@@beeew-z5tActually, in SA all non-white people are black-politically so. Black doesn't refer to race. The 4 major racial categories are African, Coloured, Indian and White.
So it's black African, black Coloured, black Indian and White.
Yhea I could tell the lady with the green top is not from here , but. Surprise in Zimbabwe and Botswana it's like south Africa
even the guy looks west african..not sure
She actually not South African. And for the first time I hear there is coloured in Zimbabwe
@@berengsello5645 Rhodesia/Zimbabwe had integral colonial ties with white South Africa…. Rhodesia was literally an extension of South Africa - a rainbow 🌈 nation on a smaller scale than SA - in 1923 Rhodesia was given the option of either being a Provence of SA or becoming a self governed British colony , meaning , Rhodesia would govern itself without interference from Britain - Rhodesia chose to govern itself … Afrikaans was not an official language in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe - that being the difference with the two countries .
@@berengsello5645plenty coloureds in Zimbabwe chyna,.
It’s crazy how Zimbabweans are claiming to be South Africans overseas 😂😂
Very one sided view.
Oh please.
30 percenters flapping their knowledgeable lips.
