A documentary with a full list of problems and complains but no mention of who's to blame for the a missmanagement, why it has come to this and what should be done to solve the problem. This is typical of unprofessional journalism.
So wait. Your racist for leaving an area where crime rate is multiplying rapidly and murders are going unsolved constantly? I had no fucking idea holy shit. Oh wait. nvm there white. They were born racist right?
It doesn't take a genius to recognize one of the big problems, but yep, that's too un-pc. So, let's create a voluminous documentary about "who's to blame" and not confront the uncomfortable truth that apartheid worked, as it helped build a relatively safe, orderly society based upon the conditions of the area it was located. Same for Rhodesia, but yeah, let's write volumes without saying anything. The truth is that multiculturalism and diversity are gigantic failures; you wrote this three years ago, and that truth is even more apparent today as it was then. This video is the epitome of first-rate, primary source journalism, because it shows actual footage of an area in debate, and let's the viewer use their own sight, knowledge, and intuition, and based upon that speculate as to why.
@@jrpark05 its not just that the apartheid worked, the success of the apartheid created an economic boom which attracted millions more african migrants from across the continent. Hardly any of the blacks living in South Africa are native to South Africa. Their ancestors migrated their after the success of the British/Dutch colonies under apartheid.
As they evict them...they should check if the people have legal documents to be here in our country...if not...deport same time...don't just evict...!!!
Chicago ,Philadelphia, Detroit spring to mind. Here the demographics & cultural divide are an even larger deciding factor. People always establish there own level of culture in which they feel comfortable. End of a quick fabulous story.
Its hard to go anywhere around the country without meeting foreigners. I think they have overstayed their welcome, time for them to go back where they come from. As South Africans we have let our selves down. We have allowed foreign nationals to take over our country simply because the white South African and the black South African can't seem to agree on anything, and these foreign nationals have taken advantage of that. Its time we stand together as South Africans and rebuild this nation. We have to stand up for each other as South Africans.
It's funny, people have been saying this shit for hundreds of years, but still the human population can't grasp the fact that there is no where else to go. Foreiginers movie to foreign lands for reasons. Majoirty of them would be very lucky if they had anywhere to go back to. Would you tell a black african man to move back to his country? Because if you would, it shows how you don't know anything about the world or about politics. Instead of complaining about others ruining your country, focus on what you can change and that is yourself. I doubt you'll even see this comment, your mindset probably got you killed years ago.
I'm in the States, but my mom was from JoBurg. She came to the States in 1959. I remember traveling there several times back in the 70s. I just can't believe how Jo'Burg has decayed. So sad to see that once great country going to hell.
And South Africans should take the blame(both black and white), instead of uniting and forming a singular voice, we allowed them to devide us along race and political party lines. Now future generations will suffer because of our short-sightedness.
