Kathrada Foundation compares racist social media posts to Minstrels’ woes

Inferring that “black people are like barbarians and should not be allowed onto public beaches…is similar to the Taj Hotel asking the Cape Minstrels to remain silent on their parade route because hotel clients would be ‘disturbed’ ”. That’s the view of the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation which‚ in a statement on Monday “strongly condemns the racist comments” which trended on social media on Monday.
