South Africa still waiting on post-apartheid promisesThe polls will be a severe test for the African National Congress which has held power virtually unchallenged in post-apartheid South Africa. I don't know about you but posters like this don't garner much sympathy from me. My reading this is that the coloured community would have been happy/unbothered by black oppression if only they were considered 'White'...
