    The end of apartheid was supposed be a beginning. Two decades later, "you still are living in apartheid.”http://nyti.ms/2zxZNu7

        Leaders changed colour but their hearts still beat to the rhythm of greed. Selfishness is the god of our time. In every land, tribe & people

        Long term systematic racism is very hard to overcome, everywhere. There's no instant fix, and it's ridiculous to say it's all behind us!

        It's not a color thing. It's a motivational work thing. "Showing up" manifests itself in many ways. Try it.

        Dude. That is exactly what the apartheid gov said about black people and their "current" state imposed by the regime. Lies then, lies 2day

        Seems like our more violent version of America post civil rughts. History is a bitch and keeps repeating until you get it right. It is an incredibly sad time.
