- Watching Parliament made easy! My Africa Brings you all the scenes you really want to watch!
Newsworthy, interesting and the funny parts MINUS the boring rest of a long Parliament sitting.
Parliament of South Africa - “To represent the people, and to ensure government by the people in fulfilling our constitutional functions of passing laws and overseeing executive action”. This language issue is now making Parliament becoming a circus?
Watch EFF MP Ms Tebogo Josephine Mokwele telling Parliament that Afrikaans is a "Very Disturbing Language".
Chief Whip Floyd Shivambu please call your new MP to order! *****
The Constitution affords all South Africans the right to see and hear what happens in Parliament.
For the last 7 years and for the benefit of subscribers and the community “My Africa” search for sequences that are newsworthy, interesting, funny etc. From a, sometimes long and boring, Parliament sitting allowing the community the opportunity to choose which sequence they find interesting and want to watch.
As a result “My Africa” adds significant value to those effected by the exceptionally high cost of Data and Pay TV.
Also “My Africa” allows the community to comment and contribute to discussions in a meaningful manner and take stories forward.
However, we will NOT condone the following:
- Racism (including offensive comments based on ethnicity and nationality)
- Sexism
- Homophobia
- Religious intolerance
- Cyber bullying
- Hate speech
- Derogatory language
- Comments inciting violence.
We strive to make the RUclips community a safe and welcoming space for all.

It's not an issue of language. It's a matter of wasting time and shifting attention from the matters of corruption.
However; it must be acknowledged that the translation devices should consist of more than just English and Afrikaans. This gross lack of langauge assistance will just lead to communication difficulties.
And it's clear everyone here needs all the help they can get.
If you disrespect my language you also disrespect me. Dont expect anything from me either .....
If you have the opportunity to choose which language you want to learn then you are racially privileged.🙂
It's barbarism your language .
@@ibrahimgassama8362 English was and still is regarded as a superior language and is therefore forced upon us. non native speakers have the choice to either learn our native languages or not
@@peachfm9377 wtf whats the connectuon between racial privilege and choosing a language?!?
True,
Chair is so chilled bruh😂
Chilled A. F
Im dead 😂😂😂when the Chair says to Sonti uHonorable member asingo Baba lo and the way Sonti says ohh ngu honourable yeah sorry uxolo... kills me😂😂
I laughed such a way that I've listened to that a thousand times, still can't get enough.
Madame speaker manages to keep calm though bless her. Not an easy job.
She is so matured with experience
Steenhuuzen has a point
She's too old for this stuff.
if Mama Mokwele wants respect, she should show respect...
Also, the ANC has been in power for ages... had no time to get interpretation services for all official languages? Is this the first time someone brought it up? :D
Considering South Africa's histrory I'm not surprised
Well... if, after 25 years, the black majority did not vote for a larger translation budget and keep having only 2 languages at their parliament, the afrikaners are no longer to blame.
The white people monopolise the economy. 25 years v 350 years my dear
she is right .no white man who learn black languages
Learning doesn't equal respecting though :/
Many white people can speak a black language a lot a black people can speak Afrikaans so stop your false nonsense
I am French, some of my ancestors were brought by the Dutch in SA, then chose to return to France when their religion was no longer a threat to them, more than a century ago, so I may not be South African, I keep following what happens there.
I also work for an airline.
Everytime I leave SA my aircraft has Afrikaners emigrating to Europe, I help them fill their paperwork, we get to chat a little.
They keep paying for something they did not do, as, for the most part, they weren’t even born when Apartheid was a thing.
Rainbow Nation my a..
Poor them, it must have been so hard for them... Right?
There were not even born? Do you think apartheid happend 1000 years ago? Millions of South Africans who lived during apartheid are still alive today including the people you see in that parliament
Our country is full of hate
@Becky Britin I don't know but it never end
It is manufactured by these people.
@@leratotanya1123 still trying to push generational guilt? Yawn....

@@peachfm9377 so what yawn. I could point out all the flaws in your self entitled little speech but it is really getting boring.
I'm shocked that after rejecting to withdraw their statement the speaker didn't ask the member of parliament to leave.
Isn't she the same lady was shouting "don't call me a straw man"? In any case, if you don't respect a constitutionally recognized language, an d in the parliament out of all places, anywhere else in the world you would've lost your seat
EFF don't respect anyone... it's a great circus!!!
The only growing major political party in the whole of South Africa. That's the circus you're referring to
@@nitromania5827 This did not age well...
EFF is a very fun party, always to laugh heartily. Of course, you can't take the EFF seriously, but it's funny.
She called Afrikaans an "understepping language". The English dude said that as 11 languages are official and with equal status, that was inappropriate. She then goes to say she doesn't respect, on the basis that neither speak each others languages. In the end, it became a lost in translation kinda thing, with a kick of historical animosity. Not gratuitous, but could have been addressed in a different way. The issue was lack of translators, not historical oppression (at that moment).
Oh my.. she can’t even speak her own language 😂😂😂😂😂 I am not shocked but shoket 😂
She was angry so no words easy to come out
One language for Africans Swahili
Come on Black people. Let's allow Afrikaners to speak their language and use it whenever or however they feel like. We have our own languages to do the same to.
It is important to stick, use and promote your language. We don't seem to understand that. When people are using theirs we complain because we don't have an understanding of how important one's language is. Still now, after 25 years of freedom from apartheid and the colonialisation, we don't have an answer to the language question. We will only understand why Afrikaners are so proud and defensive of Afrikaans when we have come up with an answer to the language question that we keep sweeping under the carpet despite it constantly haunting us.
Everyone should be free to speak in their mother tongue in parliament. The issue here is that they dont have all the relevant translators, an issue that has been raised before but still has not been resolved.
"We will only understand why Afrikaners are so proud and defensive of Afrikaans when we have come up with an answer to the language question that we keep sweeping under the carpet despite it constantly haunting us.".......I can PROMISE you that the same situation exists in other countries.

EFF consists of a bunch of non constructive hooligans and illiterate idiots whose main aim is to disrupt Parliament meetings with their stupid, idiotic, mental behaviour.
MrSweetaz go back to your cave
@@gameZA40 What people do with that hatred is a problem. She is showing that she is never going to respect a people that happen to speak Africaans. This is a leader in the house who's views are obviously shared by other respected leaders in the house. This is how a genocide happens. It's very telling how widespread her views are and once these views become so widespread that she can spout them in such a public forum without someone who she respects chastising her and making her realise how dangerous this can be, things are going to get worse.
Her leader is calling for the throats of whiteness to be slit on stage and she is calling for anyone who is Africaans to be disrespected.
If you don't like this country you must leave.
I love afrikaans from cape town
And please do not get me wrong, of course the fact that isiXhosa, isiZulu, seSotho, etc. not being an option in Parliament is a major problem. That is undebatabl. It cannot be that today the native people of the country are excluded from discussions and debates in Parliament. That is a major no no.They should have fixed that on the spot, because majority of our people speak native languages and it is not fair nor is it acceptable that they can't understand someone else that is speaking their native tongue. And abelungu need to start learning African languages, that's my belief.
@Simon Jr. Prince I don't know what you read. So was where was I wrong in my comment? I didn't touch on anything that you mentioned, but you're accusing me of saying that Africa is not for Africans? And that is based on me saying that Native Languages in Parliament is a must and is non-negotiable and that abelungu learning native languages is what should happen? That equates me to being "a Mandela"? Wow, I am so confused. Please balance me, and quote me where I have defended Afrikaans or amaBhulu in any way. haha hayi, I am so lost.... please send location.
@David Miles Yes, Afrikaans was birthed in Africa. But I do believe that just as we are forced to learn English, just so that we can attend university, they should also learn a Black African language. How is it that white and Indian South Africans can be satisfied with only knowing English? Before schools offer French, Spanish, Greek, or whatever, they must start at home. Native Black languages should be encouraged upon all students. That is just my belief. I hope you respond without attacking me.
What is interesting and very few people know is that the abelungu learned different African Languages according to the region in which they went to school during the Apartheid era. I had Setswana till Matric/Grade 12. This apparently changed after 1994...
Simon Jr. Prince I agree with you completely. South Africa and Africa as a whole will thrive no matter what. White people leaving South Africa or the continent will not be the end of us. That threat does not make us shake in our boots. We will survive and we will succeed
@David Miles I was always under the impression that "Afrikaans" is a derivative of Dutch mainly and is NOT an AFRICAN language.
Most native speakers of Afrikaans are not white.
It was a mandatory form of oppression.
@@alastairaspara4554 so was english in many countries around the world but no one calls it disturbing
@@alastairaspara4554 then why did the "freedom fighters" use Afrikaans as their preferred language in their training camps, when they all could speak another common language.
@@gustavozar5365 why do we have to be racist me bleed the same we are just another skin why you have to be like that
@@alastairaspara4554 no.... It was made out to be a mandatory form of oppression by communists. That is how communism works.... Make a scapegoat, cause disruption and violence then shout poor me we are the victim when there is a reaction so that it gives others false ideas of what the situation is. .... If it wasn't race it would be... Short people, fat people, rich people, beautiful people, gay people, ugly people..... And the list can be infinite. Get real.
If you had respect for everyone language then the only two languages can't be English and Afrikan especially in an African parliament 🔥
EFF with unnecessary animosity...
A good question is why do we have two translations in a 9 official languaged country? This undermines the Africans and I truly understand why you don't see it because the system has made us desensitized to this issue. It makes no sense that you go to a police station to make an affidavit and they want to write it in English in a township.

What about us who want to hear what he is saying freedom front plus, thanda ukuzenza ngcono

Bayanya laba. 😑 if we were to speak ours they would complain.
I kind off agree to this. You want to get a msg across but you know no one there already isn't listening so now it just sounds like noises. Making it just worse. This house is already full of hate and race hatred. I believe everyone should love their language. But atleast if you want those who hate you to like you atleast try and find common ground.
Even though I am an Afrikaans-speaking person, I strongly disagree with the use of Afrikaans in parliament. From a practical standpoint, it just doesn't make any sense - not everyone in parliament understands Afrikaans, just like everyone doesn't understand Zulu, Xhosa, or Sotho. So therefore, insisting on speaking Afrikaans despite it not being universally understood is extremely inconsiderate and rude to other members of parliament.
So what about members who don't understand English?
@@nitromania5827 Everybody understands English.
@@nitromania5827well learn it or use translators. But foolish to think you are the center of the world, especially when you are only a minority.
ask myself these questions in the last 25 years, who more racist blacks or whites?who encourages race violence the most black or white?who spreads the most hate speech openly and confidently black or white? what is more, black on white murder? or white on black murder? who has benefited from government policies the most black or white? if you live in south Africa you will know this answer
Why don't they just speak English, how are speakers elected, because she does not have a good command of English?.....was English not used to conquer the world? This is pure comedy
Its tragic that these are the people elected to run a country
What about black people who speak Afrikaans as their 1st language they're not welcomed in EFF? We talking Rowen Williams, Benni McCarthy, Steven Pinner etc .
@The Plague Firmino that's because we are not my fiend we have our own culture. A lot of black Africans don't like it which is fine however they can fuck right off.

Respect Afrikaans for who for what
Haha you dont have to respect the language you idiot..you respect the person regardless of language
More than 500 years in Africa and most fail to even utter a single word in any native language. Even a phonic sound is difficult yet We are forced to know the languages of races considered as superior while ours are undermined by not being learned.
@David Miles Why English? It is imperialism language.
@David Miles Africans are also colonisers of South Africa they aren't indigenous either
@David Miles agreed mate I've heard some indigenous people say that they aren't black and shouldn't be called black
It is very wroooooooong not to have our African languages in Parliament.
True
Afrikaans is african language! It's language of people who built your country. You can condemn apartheid but South Africa is now one of the most modern countries in the world. It would not be possible without people who speak Afrikaans.
@Bastian 96 You speak rubbish this time. Boers killed our people and you are still saying that nonsense?
You are out of order. This country initially belonged to the black africans. It is WELL WITHIN THEIR RIGHTS to speak their AFRICAN languages...

As a Dutch person I think it's shocking to see the hate towards Afrikaans in the comments... It feels really awkward, cause it's a daughter language of Dutch 😅 I even saw a comment calling it a 'barbaric' language, the disrespect 🥺 However, I do agree that it's weird the only two languages available for translation are English and Afrikaans 🤔

We do not have to like a certain language, but you do not have to disrespect that language. If a white honourable member stood up and said "I do not respect isiXhosa/isiZulu/seSotho..." that member would be howled at by the black honourable members. We cannot have double standards. Afrikaans is part of the 11 Official Languages. I do not speak Afrikaans, nor am I interested in it, but I have no reason or right to disrespect it. As umntu that is not Zulu, do I have the right to say "Andis'funi isiZulu." Also, what message is she sending to millions of viewers and listeners? Soon, black people will have a negative outlook towards ALL Afrikaners, which will solidify the negative stance soooome Afrikaans people have against abantu abamnyama, and where will lead to after that? Unnecessary racial wars (the most extreme outcome).

@@gustavozar5365 enkosi for your matured and open-minded attack.. yho, I mean response, partly in another colonisers language.

But ke, maybe being educated got the better of me, or "fukked" up as you put it so nicely. I'm just thinking about how it was our first Democratic Black President that was smart enough to know that you have to speak the colonisers language to be able to think like him.

This is why people should be nice to each other at all times. You never know when the oppressed will gain power and seek revenge. This is a nightmare situation. Feelings are still raw and white South Africans have only themselves to blame.
Who is oppressing you? The only thing oppressing is the government who after 25 years has dropped the standard of living of all people in South Africa. Bring facts and statistics. The stats say different.
How could you respect a language that you don't understand hysuka Afrikaans yokunuka la
I do not speak the 11 official languages ... but respect them all because languages are a beautiful thing...
Tbh english should only be spoken, no other languages should be spoken because it will be too complicated and people will get pissed off.
On the point of ‘respecting’ the language, its understandable why people wouldn’t respect afrikans, yes it is the language spoken of previous oppressors so of course there will be hard feelings, but then again the english oppressed us too and here we are speaking majority english.
So its fine to get angry at someone speaking in a language you don’t understand but don’t simply disrespect a language because of its past, otherwise we wouldn’t respect 90% of language in the world.
There are many people who do not understand english or Afrikaans.Just because you and me understand this language we should not deny our grandmothers and other people to understand parliament or to work in parliament.

I think he meant mental slavery, a country where the majority comprises people who speak several dialects of the Nguni languages still pandering to an Afrikaans minority 25 years after "independence" or atleast that is what I assumed Mr Dube was referencing.
The problem extends to other forms of media such as jurisprudrence or texts designated for schools or workplaces, where the default is English and Afrikaans; indeed, there are some documents where African languages are espoused with the same fidelity as Afrikaans but this is the exception.
@@shafiyaalgiquadra1105 can we be realistic here for a minute. There are 11 official languages. No person speaks all 11 languages. It is therefore better to have a language that is understood by most people. The languages happen to be english and afrikaans. Most government documents do have at least three translations - english, afrikaans and the language that is prevalent in the area where the document is used ie. Kwazulu natal would be zulu. For the most part thus works. It would be an impossible task and extremely expensive to do so otherwise.
@@maryduplessis2510 is it your belief that people who speak Afrikaans outnumber people who speak Sesotho, for example, in a region where Sesotho is most prevalent?
How do you come to the conclusion that Afrikaans is more widely spoken than any Nguni language in any region save perhaps the Western Cape?
It is my democratic right not to respect other people, their religion or their property or their privacy or their bodies or anything.🤷♂️ In fact to hell with all respect. Democratic rights ankere? ✊🏻

Especially the Tswanas who heavily intermarried with Kalahari San people and the Xhosas and Sothos who intermarried with Khoe Khoe fleeing the Trek Boers and finding refuge within those communities, where they assimilated into.
That's why you find many Black South Africans with Khoisan features (slim and muscular built, pepper corn hair, smaller eye folds, lighter yellowish skin hue etcetera). Even the most famous Black South African, Mr Nelson Mandela, was a Griqua descendant and therefore partially Khoisan. That's not unusual at all. I recommend you the article that was released in the renown Nature journal by the title "Complete Khoisan and Bantu genomes from southern Africa". They've done genetic testing on various South African individuals and studied their entire genome. One of the participants was Desmond Tutu. He was surprised to learn that he also had Khoisan ancestors, that he wasn't aware of. That's true for many Black South Africans. Most are not even aware that they have ancient Khoisan ancestry. Yet it's so obvious, otherwise we would look the same like Congolese or other other Bantu people, who have no Khoisan admixture, but we have distinct South Africa features due to the mix with Khoisan. We are a mixed population, like the British who are mixed between Germanic Anglo-Saxons, Celtic and Roman Latins.
Then there is also ancient admixture betweem the groups, since
Reparations would accord everyone justice
It should be emphasised that all South Africans should know at least 1 African language. At this point we're not meeting each other halfway.

When the serious national matters on desk no time for playing!!!
South Africa home of all lead by samples not by color!!!
Carmen Fox you don't understand, am not telling you about language!!!
Why is it only English and afrikaans being translated in the RSA?This basically mean that only the these two tribes in SA are taken seriously.
Mainly because those other languages don't have enough words to work with.
About 3000 each while the average person uses about 8-10000 in their vocabulary.
Then there is the fact that several of them don't have tenses to indicate time or have polite speech patterns.
Then there's the fact that these mother tongue speakers tend to fail their own language in school...
@@stoneomountain2390but bibles come in different native languages and have all the terms right?
@@peachfm9377 not at all.
They try to get the message across, but use different terms and descriptions.
An interesting difference in Bibles, is the one for the deaf, where the word use is similar to that of a ten year old.
@@stoneomountain2390 this is interesting
And the English didn't compress the blacks....such a fool...😂😂😂
Our parliament very embarrassing. Speaker not confident. EFF is thrash.
What is the name of the chairperson in this video ?
Honestly.. The fact that Most the black people in that seating is speaking English... With the intention of Accommodating everybody yet the Afrikaaners do not do so.. I have seen how most the VF+ speak Afrikaans without the understanding of other languages.
Yet the DA bro had a point here honestly... We need to respect each other's languages
They are not taking the country serious. Why can't they decide on one language common to and compulsory to all. Children at school don't have interpreters or translation.
People just don't understand that the system favors Afrikaans and English. Therefore once Eff start to fight its because they know that just debating about it won't help because they will always come back to it. Issues must be addressed and this one is big

The issue of translators is what must be addressed - not the race behind the language. Her remarks were unconstitutional and racists regardless of her personal feelings. Besides we have serious problems in this country - far more important than racist rhetoric which gets us no where. Solve these problems first. Lets get our priorities right.
How does the "system" favour Afrikaans and English? If you're referring to the translators, then you need to know they work according to demand. If you think about it parliament is dominated by black South Africans so there's rarely anything else spoken than English.
was she in the Stylistics ??
her English is very poor for an adult
The problem is there too many people who dont respect themselves. So this behaviour is to be expected. 🙁
You don't have to speak Afrikaans then shut up understanding and speaking Afrikaans is not for everybody only for the intellectual like who has a history and build and made the country a first world for those who cooses to take it back to dark ages will never understand the complexity.. just whant to say i can speak zulu and and i am proud of it it is a good thing to educate youself.. and so i will teach my children also to speak Zulu and any other language i can . Whiles you teach to hate steal rape murder and kill old people innocent unspected victims babys see who will get the furthest in life. Asshole uniformed hope you don't have children must be terrible to be brought up stupid people..
Lizette Zyl saying hello and just the basic good morning and how are you is not speaking it.. just saying 😂 and you speaking it is not amazing and it isn’t a favor. It is a must do because it’s a language your ancestors found here and in order for you to have conversations with Zulu speaking people you’d have to adjust to the language.
@@peachfm9377 how would you it is 3rd language what is it to jou anyway..
Lizette Zyl 😂 please rewrite your comment. I do not understand it
@@peachfm9377 go back to school then🤭
How are u gonna ask a African woman who’s ancestors suffered in the hands of Europeans to respect their language? Ask yourself that
The EFF woman is a shockingly colonised mind.
No, she's just racist. If I had said Xhosa is a disturbing language spoken by people who have oppressed me and I don't know want to hear it and talked about the Language yet implying that it's the White man's language yet forgetting that it is a primary language for many Coloureds, Blacks, Indians, Asians, Whites in South Africa. Wouldn't I be considered a racist in today's terms, in today's standards where everyone and everything is racist to others, themselves and the other non-existant genders propaganda that they'll oneday usher in? It's a slippery slope. A berry🍒 berry🍒 slippery slope. 😂😂😂 (They don't have a berry emoticon so I took some cherries instead).
What abt us who are watching parliament,who do not understand Afrikaans,why not put English subtitles.Members of parliament are immature.
