A group of South African activists is fighting back against international campaigns that depict South Africa as a boiling hub of genocide.

The Facebook page‚ Busting the Myth of White Genocide in SA‚ was launched last month to dispel notions that whites are being slaughtered and raped‚ and their land pillaged‚ as part of an organised war on whites.

Run by an anonymous group calling itself The Geoffs‚ the page has gained followers from across the globe.

Through Internet image searches‚ the group debunks fake videos‚ e-mails‚ photographs‚ documents‚ WhatsApp messages and fraudulent social media accounts that sound warnings of onslaughts against whites.
