@aard67 what makes you feel proud of your "ass kicking heritage"? what on earth is there to feel proud about that?
Do you see the Boers as the oppressed or as oppressors?
-
@bartieboy93 That is competely untrue. They treated black people like dirt. Why do you convince yourself of this nonsense which contradicts the historical evidence.
Nothing excuses what the British Army did, but don't try to make out the Boers were (are) angels.
They were rabidly white supremacist and very militaristic.

@keithehlert You can believe me. We will not forget our heritage, we will not allow the world to forget either.
We are still standing, our morals and hearts are the same as our forefathers to this day. You will still read a lot about us in the new history to be made.This is our country that we built. With God on your side there is no fear at all.

That's what mattered.
the boers did not think black people were lesser people, they just said they are DIFFRENT, and you shouldnt treat everybody the same. they tought the natives were just not ready to rule country's. i do not think this is racism, this is realism.
i grately respect the boers for what they did, fight on against all odds.

I took my teenage kids to spionkop last week and was shocked to learn that all this history of our country is being systematically removed from the education curriculum ... As i stood on the open veldt atop spionkop i felt very proud of my ass kicking heritage but stil felt sorry for all the poor young brits who died there ,, working class people who was someones son or brother .. The world has suffered enough at the hands of evil politicians and their power hungry henchmen RIP all of them
