Although people may have previously witnessed apartheid in South Africa, and some became entitlements to tribes, customs and cultural norms in provinces which they ended up in during apartheid, it is morally right to believe that it was all part the journey. Today, South Africa is unimaginable without manifestos of admirable traditional cuisine, clothes, graphics, music and crafts'. Not to mention the alluring destinations
to explore in one nation.
Unity depends on the free-will of South Africa to entirely heal and reconcile, to invest time in enjoying the gift of diversity, to pass on the culture of unity to future generations and to celebrate Africanism.
South African can real work towards all that but that will be quite hard as there is still racism and thoephobia here and there, the country unity is much needed. I see there is also some discrimination of black business and white business owner
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your feedback. Yes, the journey to a unified society won't be easy because of the wounds not healed. There is an excessive need for reconciliation philosophers to remind people that, world peace and well-being are the main priorities, especially in a society that derives from a broken history. Nobody says that we should never mind what happened. History is important but it becomes a problem if we carry on only the loathe to the future, for example, disregarding that fact that history should not be the reason why an individual should dislike another individual because of race. You remember Donald Woods and Steve Biko, their friendship?
