Teach your kids about racism
Devlin Angel: I am extremely appalled by this. Firstly, television channels, the internet and print media have extensively discussed the struggles of apartheid and the recent conviction of Vicky (Momberg) using the derogatory term was blasted all over social media, so even if she (Moodley) was not educated at school being a millennial, I am positive she has had access to all these mediums. Secondly, she had, I’m assuming, a good job, a job that would have probably been impossible to obtain unless Nelson Mandela and the other activists fought and risked their lives for equality in this country. Woman just own up to being wrong!
Jacci Freimond Rudling: She’s my kid’s age. Their curriculum was nothing but the Struggle … She must have been bunking on the 359 days that the class discussed the Struggle.
Daniel Tsoni: This is exactly what happens when adults in one race are having a conversation about the other races in the presence of their little ones. Children tend to listen to their parents and believe whatever it is that they conversate about is true and nothing wrong about it.
Melissa Evans: You don’t need school to tell you to not call each other horrible names; whatever the meaning is to you or the background of the word. Why can’t everyone just be kinder to each other and treat others how you would want to be treated, with respect, dignity and love.
Nasheetha Singh: Lies! I was born before her and probably had more of an apartheid education. There’s no excuse for this. I may be brown but she certainly doesn’t represent me or my state allocated race. It’s a pity she’s again passing the buck instead of taking accountability and saying sorry. Clearly a case of #sorrynotsorry.
Tamsyn Samantha Allies: Watse nonsense praat die vrou? Are you seriously saying that bad education is to be blamed for this? Oh my God, what lukewarm tea! It’s bloody everywhere. How can you say that? Indians were pretty much in the same boat, so I really don’t understand the c*** you’re spouting. It’s taught at schools, it’s visible at schools, unless you didn’t have any parents or friends, you have had exposure to all of this information and the stigma behind that word. Wow.
