Are we ready for transformation, or is this just a word that is being passed around?

The atrocities of apartheid cannot be forgotten, but the pot needs to be sealed for our generation to move on and for the country to develop.

Many white people still teach their children that domestic helpers and gardeners are workers and nothing more.

They forget that their children were taught by those helpers from their infancy.

South Africa will never achieve non-racialism in this generation.

People need to understand that there is a difference between freedom of speech and hate speech.
