Problem is this Government refuse to acknowledge Afrikaans as one of the INDIGENOUS languages in SA... They undermine or marginalize coloured people who speak Afrikaans as their first language... Afrikaans is labeled the language of the oppressor.... Ironically the same language is ACADEMIC. All black vernacular languages are not ACADEMIC.... English is universal but not INDIGENOUS it's a foreign language yet it's PREFERRED as the OFFICIAL language of SA... That's laughable and ironic... This Government's OBSESSION to DESTROY Afrikaans will not succeed because it's an EMPOWERING language... If the Government attack Afrikaans they attack the coloured NATION too because it's their first language... Chinese people born in SA are classified coloured together with some Indians who speak Afrikaans as their first language... Afrikaans is not affecting the Afrikaners ONLY but coloureds, Chinese and Indians... Your hatred for Afrikaans is so deep it POISONS your judgment because you POLITICIZE an innocent language... This gaslighting and madness must stop... Afrikaans is not a foreign language as far as I'm concerned... Whatever Lesufi is smoking....
The problem is not only language but culture as well. You are denying people of their culture. So if there is an Afrikaans school in an area which is majority of Zhosa. So then let the Xhosa people start theeir own school. Why are you forcing people together.
Why are they so worried about Afrikaans, what language must we speak, English, for you know where the English language came from England

Interviewer playing the apartheid card is sad😢
The only card they have to play even after 30yrs. It is now crumpled and useless!!!!!
