Wow, i so wish in my deepest heart all south africans can see these videos, I wish my friends who crucified me for not supporting this new South Africa thing can see this.
This doccie made me think...if the rainbow nation is to be realised it us the people who are responsible for making it happen and not the government. White privilage took long to establish itself but there are strides that ordinary south africans can take to restore dignity and share the fruits of the democratic state.we need to do more istead of looking to the government,aluta continua
Q. Why is everyone from other countries in Africa immigrating to SA?
A. Because the standard of living in SA is many times higher.
Q. Why is the standard of living so much higher?
A. Europeans brought a first world standard of living to a third world continent.
The avg. black S. African enjoys an incredible standard of living compared to the rest of the continent. I don't see S. Africans immigrating to any neighboring countries because oppression is so bad.
A lesson that we need to remember now. The US is going to try to put another batch of puppet leaders in power in Egypt under the cloak of "democracy" and the Egyptian people must not fall for such deceptions.
@blackiron60 they're not falling for it but they're against a huge military & police force that will always do the bidding of their Yank masters. Very sad indeed. Unless there's a revolution in the US, the majority of the rest of the world will be living under the yoke
Yup John Pilger - you just do not get it about blacks I guess - and never will.
Fact is that 10 years after this doccie, less people have clean water!
In many towns the water from taps is filthy and undrinkable as a result of the ANC placing their own people (incompetent, untrained blacks - this is called 'transformation' ) in charge of municipal services and failing to spend the money for maintenance of water treatment plants.
Trust the ANC to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory!
what took white rule along with the aparthied government hundreds of years to create Pilger wants Mandela and his government to do in less than a decade how ridiculous change must be gradual to be effective and long lasting..so pilger is unfair in his assesment
Nelson Mandela after his release from prison embraced the old apartheid regime and forgot about Steve Biko and many others who fought the regime for his freedom. To me Biko was the true inspiration and leader of South Africa. Nelson Mandela became an Angloamerican puppet just like president umbeki. The apartheid maybe gone but something else has taken place as an economic apartheid.
Very well said. I am amazed the African people have not risen up against the ANC. Greater education is required. And you are correct, Steve Biko was the real voice of South Africa. He gave his life so that others would be free. Mandela has prostituted black South Africa to a white, rapacious, corporate past and future. His behaviour has been shameful.

John Pilger = just another great arsehole from elsewhere, who twist and turns the real truth about South Africa.
When were these 6 series videos made?
Dear Mr Pilger, go live in South Africa now ... and I bet, you (as a white person) will deeply regret that you ever produced such nonsense videos
