Pale and Male in South Africa - no work for you!!!


I could not resist sharing this email.  I received this from a friend who sent a letter to Radio SAfm, really this all about color, white males will not get work.


I sent this to Karen Key of SAfm radio. She does the law report each Monday at 9 pm.


Karen,
I would to take issue with your guest speaker on Monday, 23 June 2013.
He mentioned, "If you are pale and male" you will have to let someone else (of Colour) take the job.
He went on to say that the imbalance of the past has to be addressed.
I would like to put on record how humiliating that is.
I was a full member of the Anglican Church, and when Tutu was promoted to Bishop, I was told they did not want me and did not know who I was. I was White and they, who said these words, were Colored. I never went back again. That was at end of 1980s.
My parents attended the Anglican Church since their youth, and got married in that Church. Now I was outcast.
No thank you! I do not accept your guest speaker's explanation. I take him seriously. He does not want us, "pale males". What responsible White male will be able to tell his wife, "I lost my job because I am White. I can not look after you. . ." That is humiliation!
Pack for Perth! ?



I  have listened to Law Report for over two years every week.
Now I won't bother to tune in.

Good bye.

Apartheid in South Africa Segregation in America and Remembering Rosa Louise Parks

Remembering Rosa Louise Parks, who fought segregation in America and the evilness of apartheid in South Africa, does recall the memories of some terrible historical events. Apartheid is widely condemned around the world, yet separation of races was not blown out of proportion on the same scale as segregation.


Segregation in South Africa existed until the National Party Government changed the meaning of segregation to Apartheid in 1948. Under apartheid in South Africa, there was undeniably suffering,

Prime Minister Daniel Francois Malan ruled from June 1948 until November 1954 and come into power and began the comprehensive implementation of the segregation policy.  Johannes Strijdom during his rule from November 1954 until August 1958 tried to abolish ties with the United Kingdom and removed colored voters from the voters roll and involved with the treason tried of 156 activists including Nelson Mandela. Strijdom was also responsible for severing ties with the Soviet Union.
