- Dr. Roy Casagranda covers the history of Apartheid in South Africa.
This talk is dedicated to Nelson Mandela and is released on the tenth anniversary of his death.
Can a state be a democracy if it excludes a large segment or even the majority of it's population from citizenship? From the right to vote?
This man has taught more in 1 month than any schooling did in 15 years
yeah i found him by accident, but pretty much watching a lecture or two from him daily since then.
@@fahdhussein6760same here. His Khalid Ibn Walid & various Islamic history is why I am here but now I want to learn it all! It’s fascinating & I didn’t know about pretty much any of this but I am from the US so maybe not surprising.
Worst student ever ig
@@PlAYsImPol😅
He's propagandized and indoctrinated you that is why you learned more in one month than 15 years.
I see a lecture from Dr Casagranda, I watch.
Same here, can’t resist!
absolutely. i love how he makes this content free when people pay tens of thousands for content of lower quality in colleges all over the country. Roy is the goat.
You know you have to!!
Same here I've become a bit of fan!!!
I see an ice cream truck, I run after it. 😮😑
I think this is the Dr’s way of talking about Palestine, while circumventing peoples allegiances and known/unknown biases.
I don't think he can talk about Palestine. Too much of a risk - getting the RUclips channel deleted, losing job, consequently losing his house which will lead the way to divorce (too much financial burden), not getting jobs anymore (fruitpicking perhaps).
its a genius way to speak about palestine while still protecting his job and livelihood from the american zion lobby.
@@wari-bateshwar7461he’s literally says palestine when he’s talking about history and rarely says israel. Also, he has literally talked about it and said he’s pro-Palestine.
@@amoolakhanshali2972exactly lol
@@wari-bateshwar7461 that's not true He's been supporting Palestine u can go and check there's videos where he talk about Palestine
Thank you Dr. Roy, I am a stateless Palestinian with a degree in City Planning and I am currently studying Apartheid and Spacial Justice; this was super informative and very informative to the case of Apartheid in Israel/Occupied colonized Palestine.
I hope this isn't thoughtless and rude of me to ask, but have you ever seen the maps of the settler terrorism of the indigenous American's and compared them to Israel's settler terrorism of your homeland? It's such similar patterns that it's crazy. Again, I apologize if this was crass. I promise it was unintended.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸✊🏼
I pray the Palistinians will find the peace and freedom they so long for. South Africa had Apartheid which was inhumane and fortunately on on the scale that Gaza and West Bank has had which is diabolical and inhumane. My heart breaks for all of the Palistinians and others who have endured sub human treatment. (as an Irish descent, one understands). Was happy Ireland and others have stood with the Palistinians.
Amazing lecture, with palpable resonance to the issues we face today
Hopefully in your studies tht palestine is not under an apartheid system. Likely not though as you are learning bias material
The ethnic cleansing was already done when the Boers went into the interior. It was called the Difakane.
Dr Roy Casagranda is the teacher we all wanted but never got. What an absolute gem of a human ❤️
This man really goes through everything
Keep up the good work
Love from south Africa🇵🇸🇿🇦
WTF.?.
@@desfrancis2543 Wth with your ass?
Dr. Casagranda, outstanding lecture as usual, it's impossible to not see the parallels of what happened in South Africa with what has been happening in Palestine for70+ yrs now.
I dont really see any. The White South Africans never tried to exterminate the Bantus, like the Palestinians are being exterminated. The two state solution would be apartheid, Israel is an exterminationist state, not an apartheid state.
good point@@DanSam48
@@DanSam48It’s both. The Palestinians in Gaza are being exterminated now, but the Palestinians in the West Bank are living under a cruel apartheid while the Palestinians within Israel proper are living under Apartheid-lite. Don’t worry if Likud and Netanyahu have their way, you will end up being correct for the West Bank and maybe the Palestinians living in Israel too.
@@DanSam48israel does use palestinians as its labor force and does demarcate the population by “race-specific” IDs
@@DanSam48 In the West Bank we see apartheid, in Gaza we see extermination.
And that is why Mandela said, "“We know too well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinians.” #FreePalestine
The Saracens are the opposite of being indigenous, whereas the Indigenous South Äfricäns were persecuted.
Non-Catholic Jewish people like yourself, need to convert to Christianity just as the Saracens and Atheist Pagans do.
@@stlouisix3 So, it's the Saracens now, huh? Even so, they have been there for more than a millennium. As opposed to the settler colonists from Poland, Ukraine, etc.
Thanks levi! ♡
Trust me, Nelson Mandela's ANC doesnt care about Palatine. Because under their rule South Africans are having it as bad, worse in some cases than Gaza. Nobody really knows this because most don't follow up on the nation's disposition, but we who live under the ANC regime know that this is all a PR stunt for brownie points for the elections. They have this thing where they constantly try fish for relevancy as a freedom fighter, the struggle, when that hasnt been the case for the better part of 29 years. And many Christian South Africans are also poorly informed and side with Israel because the Bible tells them Israel can do no wrong because of obvious biblical reasons. So idiots all around
As a South African Indian, indentured labourer heritage, born in 1980, thank you for extending the voice of our country through yours. Nkosi sekele iAfrika 🙏🏽🇿🇦
Thank you dr Roy for speaking about nations that are experiencing apartheid 🫡❤
A lecture on the racist and apartheid structure in israel next?
There Are Two Types Of People in this world:
1) Those who can extrapolate incomplete data.
you're watching it
How about a lecture on African tribal war?
Nope, no such thing as apartheid in Israel. All Israelis have always been equal among each other.
In South Africa it was NOT perfect, but each ethnic group was looked after by its own people. Not forever viable and re-integrating was ultimately to be done, but it would have been so much better without communist input..., in South Africa and Namibia.
Keeping communism itself away from our country was our vital achievement, our successful Vietnam.
@Colin-to1nv are you serious? Have you looked at the bantustans in the west Bank. Text book apartheid
As a "Cape Malay coloured" South African, I thank you for your time, effort, insight and eloquence in discussing Apartheid. Healing is possible, it takes generations and an active accurate understanding of history to move forward with goodness! I pray we get there soon!🙏
I assume you also learned that when the Dutch came to Cape Town, they intermarried with the local people. Only the elite was allowed to bring their wives. And every single marriage was written down.
Please take this as the compliment it is meant to be... you are GORGEOUS... Wow...
As a South African, thank you for this Dr. Casagranda. So many missing details they skipped in school. I learnt alot.
I don't care what's the topic when I see Dr Casagranda uploaded a new video, I watch. This man has a wealth of knowledge.
There are many things I'm grateful in life for and one of them is to have found and being able to watch Professor Roy Casagranda's lectures. Thank you for your work!
You will never regret listening to Dr. Roy Casagranda, it's time well invested.
You will, if you want an unbiased historical view. He selectively presents certain historical facts while ignoring others with a view to presenting the West as a uniquely malign force. In this lecture e.g. he mentions the Dutch colonising the Cape area while convieniently leaving out that at the exact same time African tribes esp the Zulu were migrating south ethnically cleansing the pre-exisiting populations in the areas they settled or "colonised" if you like. Bantu populations are no more indiginous to Southern Africa that the Dutch settlers, both settled the land at same time.
True
@@IF18awhataboutism
HOW? the man's information is COMPLETELY WRONG!
South african here. I started cursing the youtube algorithm after minutes of this but because I am a sane self conscious critical thinker I am willing to listen to the crazy man, probably in a futile attempt to understand this whacky thinking thats become so popular.
I'm about 25 minutes in, and while I have to acknowledge care and attention to detail, there are a few key historical inaccuracies that should be noted. First, the establishment of the Boer Republics in the interior weren't actually as violent as suggested, at least not for the Orange Free State or the South African Republic; Natalia - certainly, violent clashes with the Zulu are a main theme and why it was so short-lived. The curious reality of it, is that while the interior certainly showed evidence of widespread settlement in the past, the territory was largely empty and the establishment of the republics was remarkable for their lack of bloodshed. The early Boers mostly had favourable relations with the Basotho, Tswana and Ndebele (local Matabele).
The next key point is the Cape Coloured, you've characterised them as a product of the mingling of the Xhoe-Xhoen (and Namaqua and Nama) and the Dutch settlers. While that certainly was true, you also should not disregard the influence of the Cape Malay component - the slaves transported from modern Indonesia and Malaysia. They are the reason for the notable presence of Islam in South Africa today, as well as their influence on the development of Afrikaans as compared with Dutch and of course on the culinary tradition. Also, being a Cape Coloured isn't about being racially mixed, it's an identifiable ethnogroup with a distinct accent and rich culture.
❤
Thank you, that's why people like Dr. C are 'slim' but not that well informed.
That final point is so important. People have a tendency today to label any mixed person (especially white and black mixed) as coloured when the reality is as you've described. There is also significant xhosa admixture in the coloured racial pot. This has led to a situation where you can't distinguish a coloured person just from their complexion. Indeed, coloured complexions range all the way from being as pale as a white person to darker than some black people. Culture is the only determinant of whether someone is coloured or not. With the caveat that many people who would otherwise be identified as coloured choose to identify as black for a host of reasons related to apartheid and mutual struggle with black people, as of course is their right.
How do you know that? Did you live through it? It's all just opinions. I am White South African. I can only talk about that perspectives. The Non White people will have a different perspective. It will not necessarily invalidate the White perspectives.
@@user-cd1tb2zs1q Who are you asking? Most of the points in this specific thread are factual and can be confirmed, I also don't see any answers that have racial bias.
As a “coloured “ South American I must say I’ve never heard our history explained so thoroughly and truthfully 🇿🇦 as Palestine 🇵🇸 is experiencing a genocide right now this lecture is so important
I am an Indian from South Africa 🇿🇦 and what you are saying is the truth.
South Africa will never be free until Palestine is free ❤🇵🇸 🇿🇦
It's a left American view... they love to stick there nose everywhere, don't forget they murdered all the indigenous people and imported slavery but they want to be the judge and jury.
2 lectures in under a month? You spoil us Doctor!
Thank you Roy. I learned alot about my countries earlier years. I matriculated in South Africa in 1987. So I'm speaking from experience being a coloured high school student at the time. The insurection started inI Soweto but all non white schools were part of the insurrection. Not just the African schools. I lived through it from my primary school days to the year I matriculated. Actually my first yeart at a coloured university too. I love your lectures, especially the ones of the muslim world. I'm a Muslim from Malaysian slave and Indian traders descent. Thank you
Thank you for shedding light on Apartheid. The world needs more knowledge on that, especially these days. #FreePalestine
You aretalking a lot of nonsense where did you grow up on mars
@@user-fq1hf4bn1g I know a zionist bot when I see one 😂
Invite some Palestinians to stay with you... just have a good chat with Lebanon before so you can know what to expect
As a South African and having learnt SA history as part of my schooling, this lecture was par excellent in terms of linking the apartheid movement to the wider geo political context at the time.
Stand outs for me from this talk:
1. The overhauling of the senate to push through apartheid laws in the 50s - carbon copy happening in Israel today
2. The nuclear war heads created by the apartheid regime with Israel to use if the need arose. Had things went that way, I wouldn't be here today ..... that is wild to even give thought to! Uncanningly similar to Israel's motivation to develop nuclear weapons of their own today
Thank you Dr Roy - you are a legend!
You want to believe American lefty professors... Verwoed was planning to end apartheid that's why he was taken out... research the Smiths.
Lies, nuclear warheads were made to be used as a threat to countries trying to step into our affairs.
Blatant ignorance to think. Israel is experiencing an apartheid system and you should know better. Shame on you
Lil bro does history and probably gets less than 50% in school and feels the need to talk
Julle weet nie wat ons weet nie
It is really hard not to hear what has happened in south Africa and not immediately think about Palestinian people and what they are facing under apartheid regime in thier homeland 🍉🍉,
They use the same arguments that the dutch, British used to day about natives in south africa and america, but truth will always prevail, #FreePalestine 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 ❤❤
I hear you talking about apples and I realise your talking about oranges
@ashleywebb2736 what exactly is tribbing you off, maybe my phrasing was a little weird, so please tell me I will try to explain, if you like ofcourse
And this is why our universities are such a shit show. Absolute rubbish. Area was very, very sparsely inhabited. When the Dutch settlers developed the area, many blacks moved in from the North because they Dutch and English were creating prosperity. South Africa today is a classic example of a failed state and it isn't because of your Dutch settlers. This grievance studies professor is a classic example of not having to live with his assumptions .
@ashleywebb2736 it is amazing how every place that colonial powers went was empty , the Americans, Caribbeans, Palestine, India, east indies, every place was empty, even if it was what give you the right to colonise a place remove its people and then enslave them steal thier resources then build a powerful economy because it is build on slaves aka sheap labor , then complain when these people get some of thier wealth back
@ashleywebb2736 there are still powerdul people working against the South African project. Bell Pottinger showed us this.
But what I know is that my children have endless possibilities available to them. Opportunities that I didn't have, that my siblings didn't have, and that my parents didn't have. My parents had their land taken away from them, my siblings had traumas thrown at them at school and their friends were dragged off to jail. So I'm glad we don't live in the old South Africa.
How is Dr . Casagranda blessing us with so many lectures this year?
It's a blessing to loose braincells
@@Lebo901 What do you disagree with?
As’salaamu’alaikum. Always look forward to seeing a new lecture from Dr Casagranda. Thank you sir.
I'm 55 years old with college degrees and I learn more from your videos than I ever did in my primary OR secondary educations! Your students are lucky to have you in their young lives!
Free Palestine guys.. don't get sick of talking about Palestine, they are experiencing a genocide right now, if you sick of hearing about Palestine genocide, imagine how sick they are experiencing it..
Free Palestine ❤
a population increase from 700,000 to 7 million isnt a genocide. People use the word genocide these days too freely
🥲✊
I would love to hear Dr. Roy’s narrative on it but he won’t do it because he will lose his job, career etc. Free Palest!ne
@@Xathos-cl9px - You’re right, but it strikes me that suddenly setting aside his current lecture plan to slip in a discussion about Apartheid is not… ignorant about current crisises.
As someone who grew up in the end of Apartheid, Im proud of the South Africa we've managed to build. Loads of issues, but there is no doubt in my mind that we are Stronger Together.
People who are at polar ends of conflict, can live together peacefully. ❤ free Palestine
South Africa is a corrupt broken country. Corrupt to the core.
As a South African, best interpretation I have seen, just one important error and one omission, which has been important and different to any post segregation country globally. 70% of South Africa's land is owned by government. It is important to discuss affirmative action in South Africa today, which means that any company with 51 or more people has to be 51% Black owned and the fastest growing demographic is the middle class Black today. A far cry from the American solution, I use the term solution very losely.
Where did you get your stats? Fron Enerst Root of Afriforum neh??😅
@@MrLechesawhich part? Most of that is from various government gazettes over the last 20+ years. The black middleclass has been the fastest growing class since back in 2007 during Mbeki's presidency. As for the Affirmative Action... Literally current law.
@@e.vil88 So you too think 70% of SA's land is owned by government?
And this information is gazetted? Do you know what the gazette is for?
@@MrLechesaWow I am actually surprised by tht. 70% of farmland is owned by whites and yet people still want to cry about land ownership. No wonder this country is going to kak
Go read.....on the apartheid government administration
You need to go and do a proper history of South Africa from 1652 to 1994 and then redo this talk again!
Shout out to camera man for not losing his touch in following Dr Roy around!
This lecture now is a master's strike by the master himself. Thank you professor Casagrande for divesting the narratives of colonialists from Latin America to South Africa and of course to those who shouldn't be named.
In Latin America we don't care about colonialist. In fact we celebrate and rejoice it because of Spain and Portugal we spoke one language and one culture. We have unity.. yet we are also very racially diverse.
@@lenardogorra613 Probably the colonialization process was so effective it resulted in this unity you are reffering to. But I would argue that many core problem Latin America is facing, like poverty, political and economical instability, drug cartels... Have bases in that colonialism. The theft of natural resources and forcing new cultural had to be accompanied by more violent measures toward the native population, and as I said its effects are still experienced now by Latin America countries.
thank you sir , may God bless you and your family . Always a pleasure listening to you
I wish I could experience a live in person Lecture of Dr. Roy Casagrand. Fascinating, interesting, educational as always.
@@xanpankarmelwho cares? Don't ruin the comment section.
It's always a good day when Dr. C drops another lecture!
“When you’re isolated like that, how do you get the worlds attention without violence?
The world didn’t care when your children got massacred. The world didn’t care at all until you fought back”
The 350 years history of my country in under two hours. As an informed teacher myself, he’s really informed
Becareful of this Americans
He is informed but he has his own biases.
He correctly differentiates "coloured" between his and our sides of the pond; yet, being racial is vital to one's own identity, so curbing racism is its own issue: the lines must be held distinct!
@@Lebo901yep, you might learn something 😂
"What people mean when they say (the British were the first people to use concentration camps) is when you use it against brown people it doesn't count."
Roy Casagranda
I get thru my 12 hour shifts by listening to Dr Roy Casagranda! 😅❤
As a South African living in SA, there some parts of our history I didn't know and learned through this lecture
There was a famous pencil test which is ridiculous to think about now. A govt rep would put a pencil in a person's hair. If it slipped down, they could classify as white ( if they had a light enough complexion of course), if it stayed in, they were coloured. Big brains behind that test, obviously...
Incredible. Smh.
As a South African growing up in the apartheid era, I've learned more in this lecture than in all of my history lessons in school. I am not surprised why this was not taught in schools.
This was taught in schools during history lessons...that was in the 80' though...if you are younger I don't know what your guys history curriculum entailed
It's a shame😢
Sure u did 😂
@@MeisiekindYes, I'm certain you're right. I am just young enough to have missed my turn for that full coverage at school, in high school.
My younger cousins experienced a very, very watered down coverage of history.
You learnt what he told you, not necessarily the truth, he doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about..
As a South African I can confirm this insight is missed completely. The truth is hidden in plain sight. Very impressive lecture.
I am happy to see in South Africa all races that a good percentage of our citizens get a long with each other even with a different cultures. We do have a some bad elements. Our struggle with the ecomonic and breakdowns of infastructures has drawn us in some ways together and in discussions feel the same way on how difficult it is to live with it. May God continue to bless us even through our difficulties.
Not get along, they tolerate each other until they can get home and avoid them!
The western Cape will once again become independent. Fir many great reasons.
The border war was most definitely a war we won, as told in his book by Gen Jannie Geldenhuys, who ultimately negotiated the peace deal, too. His book: "Those who win," or "Die Wat Wen." For, he had promised the soldiers on the ground, in that unreported war, to tell their story. His book is so worthy of being read!
The official English translation changed the title, for a wider readership, to "At the Front".
He won’t give you that…We all know what his angle is.
As a 53 yr old South African of Indian descent, I can say that this lecture is an excellent account of what happened in South Africa. After watching this, then you may understand the situation in Palestine better and understand why we see commonality of the struggles they are experiencing. In fact what whey are experiencing is a on different scale. Genocide. Ruthless Jewish Nazi Israeli state and like the apartheid state of South Africa, it will too come to end. Thank you sincerely Roy.
How can the Jewish state be Nazis? Trying to understand the concept
@@jonathankennedy-good3541It's not, yet that claim persists.
The views of Israeli Arabs on youtube speaks volumes, as do comments from other pro-Israel Arabs.
Only some Jews may be so far right they can't see straight....
Also, no one, Jewish or American Evangelical, may claim Biblical blessings for the state of modern Israel: only the right of physical heritage allows them to be there.
@@jonathankennedy-good3541zionism that is root cause of israel , has history of collaboration with nazis , read the book : secret relationship between nazis and zionism
basically zionist wanted europeon jews to move to palestine and they did that by collaborating with nazis by making germany unliable for them
Free Palestine going through apartheid, the Irish and South Africans understand 🇵🇸
Even India was with them but India became hypocrite after they got their independence (especially now with their BJP government )
Free free Palestine from South Africa.
Free Palestine
The historic parallels are pretty non-existent if you really stop and think about it.
Free Ireland under British rule.
Free Palestine, in Israel 😂
The only difference is you recognise that the British moved invaded Ireland, but somehow ignore that before massive refugee Influx during world war 2, the Jewish population in Palestine was around 10% of the population. Oh and that there was no such thing as Israel.
This channel deserves millions views.
Great analysing by Dr Roy Casagranda.
Another video so quick? Lucky us! Thank you much Dr. Casagranda love all ur videos
I’m seriously thankful for you right now Roy. we’re so out of touch with reality that it just nauseates me. I’ve learned so much from your lectures and hope to see more topics, but you’re one of my favorites to listen to on repeat at the moment
From what I have witnessed during 90’s and being taught with our history you have make it more interesting with this critical information. Bravo Prof.
Thankyou Dr Casagrande.. it really relates to what is happening right now in Apartheid Israel towards the Palestinian people..
This is so disrespectful to South Africans... it's not the same
This Dr has his biases too, for all his attempts to be fair.
Different cultures have their interactions with each other, but it's not always just as he sees it.
Mandela said many times , a corrupt government will be far worse for a country then apartheid ever could be. SA government has proved him very right.
You're trying to sanitize Apartheid crimes... typical
At least black people have a choice...
@@WalterWhite-bc8ckHaw!
This man gives me hope for humanity.
Thank you Doctor, I wish all educators were as passionate as you. Putting this out for free for us to watch is such a treasure.
Hello profesor i haven’t even seen the video but i already know im going to be blown away thank you in advance
P.s im still waiting for the palistinian isreal conflict history talk i know ive asked a 100 times now going on 101 lol
Hopefully Palestine also will get its freedom lead by its resistance! Big Thanks for the lecture
14 minutes in and my gag-reflex stops me from watching further. Freeing of slaves happened at the same time as the Great Trek? Which nostril did you scratch that fact from?
I stumbled upon your lectures from the free Palestine hashtag, and I haven't stopped watching. I'm a South African who grew up in Soweto. It's so refreshing to listen to this lecture because there were a few things I didn't know or taught in school. My mother was 16 in '76 and told me a lesser known march to John Foster Square a few months after the 16th June. Anyway, I'm definitely sharing this lecture. I'm still watching, but if you could share more on the relationship between the South African Apartheid government and Israel in terms of training and allyship as well as the ANCs vocal support of Palestine then and now.
so amazing how he summarizes our history, this is what all kids of races must be taught to find each other. thank u
At 35 minutes, I realized Gaza is the first place in history to be both a Concentration Camp and a Death Camp and the West Bank lives in Apartheid.
Concentration camps where started in South Africa. It was also a primer of what the Nazis did to the Jews.. Media just didn't like to make a scene about it
South Africa’s homicide statistics are extremely grim. Over 27,000 people were murdered from April 2022 to March 2023. Isn't that a "Death Camp"? And who must we blame? I am sure you will find someone to blame, and it won't be the people doing the murdering.
While you're at it, 45000 people are killed by gun violence in the US every year.
Are we going to call it a death camp, too? No. A death camp is a systematic prison camp created by a government for political prisoners or prisoners of war, in which many die from poor conditions and treatment or from mass execution.
This definition fitted Auschwitz in Germany, Serbian/Bosnian death camps, and other evil places in history, and it does fit Gaza since October 7.
And the definitions you're using for these are what exactly and from where?
I think the real reason behind the timing of this precious lecture is clear. 2 birds with one stone. I wish you strength and good fortune professor. Awaiting the next one.
Ps. Glad the leg is okay.
I never was interested in History until I came across of Dr. Casagranda few years ago. Thank you for uploading his lectures and making knowledge available for the rest of the world Austin School.
As a Xhosa man from South Africa, eMthatha
1. Xhosa nation were also at the cape and were described by the settlers to have a darker skin. We hunted, but we farmed. Every man had kraal to keep his cows and goats and together with the women and children the field was ploughed and planted.
2. Coloured are accepted as same by Africans, you can read Born a Crime by Trevor Noah
No black men was not seen for 150 years after 1652. I read Trevor Noah`s book. It was mosty about his own criminal tendencies to survive
Cape Town is a treacherous environment, windy, cold, sandy soil... No one lived in Cape Town in high numbers coz it wasn't a nice place to live in, especially for grazing livestock.
Xhosa people would never leave beautiful coastal places to go starve in the Cape, also why are you referencing Trevor Noah's book, Trevor is a mixed breed with a Swiss German white father. His entire routine in SA was 90 % shytting on black people.
How to talk about Palestine indirectly. Bravo Roy ❤ Free Palestine 🇵🇸
I think someone as intelligent as yourself will come around after years doing an episode on the aparthied state of Israel, and the suffering of the paslistinan people. I think we want to see an episode on palistine done by you, but I am afraid we have to wait to see the outcomes of history that will unflod in that region. Great episode!
Thank you so much! I benefit soooo much from these lectures you do! Thank you! ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dr Casagranda can I download this lecture and translate it to Arabic I will re-upload it in my channel.
I live in South Africa and I know more now than I did before I watched.. didn’t know coloured’s was the original “Afrikaner” .
You must know our culture before you could possibly understand South Africa. Goverment has been failing us for 20+ years, racism is still a BIG issue in our country, Scheduled Loadshedding ( Power outages lasting hours to days ), Crime literally breeds in many parts of the country ( Mitchell’s Plain , Khayelitsha, Worcester , just to name a few ).
We have alot of Critical issues we need to address and actually hold people accountable. These people get slaps on their wrists for 10-20 year sentences .( literally just look up a video of our former president Jacob Zuma, that man should have been in jail 2-3 years ago for 500+ corruption cases against him but is still living at home) the proof is in the pudding..but yah not much use in complaining on RUclips, thanks for letting me vent my concerns for my country😂
Great video, Thanks!
I wish he'll do the history of the Israeli-Palestine conflict. This is very relevant in today's events and is gripping the whole world.
...and they handed political power but kept the economic power. Which means they gave up nothing. Great lecture Dr.
Always thrilled to bump into new lectures of you, Sir.
Talking about hypocrisy, we muslims believe that hell has 7 levels, and it gets worse the lower the level. The lowest level of hell is reserved for hypocrites, the Pharoah of moses, and the people of the table (When Jesus PBUH asked for a table of food to be brought from heaven for his people to eat after fasting for 30 days, those who rejected Jesus after seeing this miracle with their own eyes are in the lowest level also).
It's extremely important to be humble, always search for the truth, and use the same standard when judging anything, to not be classified as a hypocrite.
Free Palestine. Free Palestine.
57:30 how modest this man is ?
He lectures history from all over the world from beginning of time to now with details and know couple of languages
But still get embarrassed getting out sheet for the exact date of sth
Love you Dr. Roy ❤😂
Always watched Dr Casagranda lectures. Never thought id see my country be the subject.
Clearly this man conquered our hearts
I really like your lectures Professor Roy, I even replayed half of them. I really wish you would go on Joe Rogan’s podcast, you’ll make a great episode!
Excellent lecture, comes at a very good time, I wish you can do this same topic about another country. But if you did that maybe you'd get cancelled. Love your work and what you said about hell at the start. God bless sir.
I wish there was a Roy Casagranda for every subject. Sensational education. So much passion and knowledge
A gentle note (as a South African, and an anthropologist), the word Khoi is pronounced with a hard exasperated KH- not a gutteral "g" like the Afrikaans G. This lecturer is using the latter, which is not correct.
I guess if you want to keep your job you're allowed to talk about South Africa apartheid and not the Israeli one yet I don't think you did this one right now by coincidence and it's your way to remind us how terrible is this kind of regime so thank you ❤❤
I hear the voice of professor from 50 years in the future in my head, saying, 'They massacred 30,000 people while the Western world just watched and even aided them. Isn't that cool?'
The history is right in front of us.
At that time some uncensored journalist would asked "But do you condemn ANC?"
Im absolutely hooked on these, thank you Dr Casagranda
"Violence is a cleansing force. It frees the native from his inferiority complex and from his despair and inaction; it makes him fearless and restores his self-respect"
--Franz Fanon.
babe babe wake up, there’s a new Roy Casagandra lecture
Thank you so much Professor. I have learned so much from you.
Is posible to show slides sometimes???
for the people not getting the hint he is talking about the palestinian israeli situation and how palestinians are in the exact same condition as black south Africans and how they need resistance to survive
RESSISTENCE IS NOT T3RR0RISM
He missed an important historical event - 1820 British Settlers in the Eastern Cape with many conflicts with the pastoral black population in that region. This highlights sources of differing 'white' populations which generally were at odds with one another in the Apartheid era of 1948 to 1994
As a South African, in school we never got a detailed history on Apartheid. i just wanted to thank you xxx
I wish Dr. Roy would continue and make a video of 1994-2023. Where are we now?
Thanks for your lecture as always it’s the best history lectures.
I grew up in Cape Town and was at primary school at the height of the 80’s uprising.
The Trojan Horse massacre happened quite close to where I lived. We heard how those boys had fled from the riot police and hid in surrounding homes. They were chased and killed by the riot police who dragged them out of the houses. They were kids.
The Truth and Reconciliation was cathartic - we wanted peace we wanted to go forward with hearts at peace.
Still a lot of inequality in South Africa but it’s my country and I love it.
I am absolutely appalled that a person of such high education can simply relay a historical lesson and end it off on a high note completely disregarding what has transpired since 1994 in South Africa. For starters I was a little "white" boy in primary school having told on a few instances to hide under my table at school because of bomb scares during the 1990's and only many years later was able to understand what was going on. Now an adult and a South African resident we still have the current government of Nelson Mandela who when having their first elections had one of their slogans "Vote Anc for Free Education and Housing for all". We all new that this was rubbish and utterly unattainable. The ANC has since been in power been corrupt and stealing and has not created free housing for all and have since stated that they realize that this is not achievable. They have also been guilty of such high corruption than most municipalities do not operate and we not have stable water and electricity supply. Less jobs have been created and although more opportunities have been given to African people the state of the country is in terrible shape. I am glad Apartheid is over but I am not happy that the world put sanctions on that raciest regime while not making the ANC accountable and current government accountable. Where is the concern now?? What is happening in South Africa currently is absolutely tragic and no international people give a damn about it. Perhaps I need to set myself on fire to get your attention.

Help this man. Many of the Bantustans were actually far away from places of employment. People had to travel many miles under the migrant labour system and live in labour compounds. It is not simply the Tswana who worked in the mines.
urban blacks, the majority of the population had no citizenship in the Bantustans, it would have been impossible for South Africa to function without the black working class in the cities.
100% correct. We grew up not know our parents because they worked in the mines all the way from the Transkei. This is a 12 to 14-hour journey by bus. They weren't paid enough to visit home more than once a year. They didn't even have enough leave to visit often. Our history is filled with pain and suffering.
There's definitely a reason why he gave this speech especially during the current political climate we're in now. It helps to clarify a lot and I'm seeing a pattern that is repeating that from this knowledge of the pattern, we will stop from repeating.
Absolutely amazing. I actually cried at one point. As a South African, amongst the first to go to a mixed race school (still a minority though) so much has been left out of our history. Gosh I love South Africa
#Free Palestine
He makes the claim that the first word in ‘National Socialist German Workers Party’ is ‘national’ therefore nationalism = nazism. That is absolutely absurd considering this is a video made in service of a nationalist movement; ie that of the Nation of Palestine.
The Transvaal and Free State weren't majority black in the early days. The Mfecane of the Zulu had utterly destroyed any native populations in these areas. These populations were also Bantu (black - ex Cameroon) as opposed to the Khoisan of the Cape. The Zulu and Basutho would also have murdered all the San found in the areas they settled in when they arrived in the sixteenth century.
It was mostly the xhosa that exterminated the khoi. Hence xhosa language has more clicks.
