. These figures are averages and don’t illustrate differences in wealth and homeownership according to race and income.
In South Africa, the opposite is largely true. Because of racialised inequality there’s little wealth to be inherited. Many South Africans, in particular black people, don’t have the luxury of being able to rely on parents or family in an emergency. Instead young — especially black — South Africans are often the sole breadwinners in their families. This sets up a different dynamic: “black tax”, where younger black South Africans tend to support older or unemployed family members.
Members of this generation spearheaded the creation of the Freedom Charter in 1955, and led the country through the transition to democracy. This example suggests the gulf between old and young South Africans is wider than we realise and deserves more attention.

CoruscaKhaya I thought the paper would tackle the differences in the overly broad categorization of youth in SA, spanning two decades, father and son.
The author says the SA youth cant to be called millenials because of our economic struggles & there shall be no wealth transfer from our fathers to us - as compared to our counterparts in US. Kwaze kanzima bo. Mbeki once asked, why do we allow people to describe us?
What about all the other American woke things
CoruscaKhaya Paper really prints everything.. when the underlying factors change does not mean the label is wrong. You are born around a certain time you belong to a certain group. No matter what your economical situation is etc.
