South Africa's one million invisible children without birth certificates

For reference, the US has procedures for this: https://www.usa.gov/citizenship-no-birth-certificate because people without birth certificates are still somewhat common, even children.

Vermont didn't require it until 1955!

So does South Africa. However, capable administrators are severely lacking.

If I was looking to cite evidence that South Africa has a racist past I'm not sure stadium chants would be my _first_ example...

One of the main figures lionized in that song (which is an anti-colonialist chant to be clear) is a white guy, Joe Slovo. These people are unserious.

Joe Slovo isn't Boer; of course he has no problem with Kill the Boer as he allied himself with the ANC againts the Boer. Being white doesn't excuse you from tribalism/racism.

Tribalism is not when you colonize a country and terrorize the former residents from centuries. Tribalism is when your multi-racial coalition pens a song expressing their rage at said terror. I understand now, priors updated.

Are you familiar with South Africa?

There's at least a dozen different tribes, of which only two are white. There's been inter-tribal violence between all of them since time immemorial leading up to today.

Are you?

Because I don't know a single South African who would describe historical intertribal violence and Dutch colonialism and apartheid as basically the same thing.

Your argument was "there's no tribalism except what the whites brought to South Africa", remember?

And elsewhere you say that because of this, violence against white South Africans are justified.

This is not only insane, but simply historically incorrect. I'm going to stop replying to you now (apparently there's a "HN Blocklist" Chrome addon!) but feel free to keep justifying calls for political and ethnic violence.

It should make interesting reading for others in the decades to come.
