The Ahmed Kathrada Foundation has informed us that there was a typographical error in its report The ANC: Still a Home for All? The quote attributed to Pallo Jordan, which the Foundation used in full in its article - The End of Non-Racialism? - should have read:
"The movement adopted as policy the conscious and deliberate de-racialisation of South Africa by undertaking a host of measures, among which are affirmative action..." rather than, "The movement adopted as policy the conscious and deliberate re-racialisation of South Africa by undertaking a host of measures, among which are affirmative action... "
We have amended the text of our article accordingly - even though the practical effect of "the host of measures, among which are affirmative action" that the ANC has taken in its efforts to de-racialise South Africa has, in the experience of many South Africans from minority communities, led to the de facto re-racialisation of our society.
Dave Steward, executive director of the FW de Klerk Foundation, questions the degree to which non-racialism is still a core value of our new society, of our government and of the ruling alliance. Read more here...
"The actual threat to our democracy does not come from 'false alarms about what are supposedly threats [to] values of the Constitution' - as Minister Radebe would have us believe: it comes from the disturbing reality that the threats to the Constitution are, too often, all too real," says the Foundation's executive director, Dave Steward.
