we are all racist because of how we are socialised by our fammilies,
schoolling, communities, peers, experience etc, thus we need to be anti-racists
rather than non racial because in that way we accept the way we were socialised
as a factor, but at the same time fight against it in ourselves, communities,
work place etc. infact there is only one race, the human race. we have more in
common with the working class from all over the world, than we have with black
capitalist and all other capitalist from all different cultural groups in SA or
anywhere else in the world.this does not suggest that racism in not used here
and some where else in the world to discriminate against other cultural groups
by other(s). We need to come together as the working class from across cultural
lines and unite against capitalism as it stands to benefit the most from the
devided working class and not blacks or whites in a generalised sense will
benefit. It is ovious if SA goes in a situation of civil war along cultural
lines the poor and the working class will suffer the most, as it is ovious that
if the working class unites beyond cultural devides both black and white
capitalist and all of them will suffer the most. so let us not forget that race
it is a factor like xenophobia, homophobia, sexism, trabalism etc that devide
us as the working class at an artificial level, but they all can be defeated
through working class struggle. We are devided along class lines more than we
think we are devided along cultural lines. all the places - parts of South
Africa - that the white racists want are beautiful areas, with lots of natural
resources and econmically strategically positioned and my quetion is why they
don't choose those parts that have no natural resources that they can exploit
for their narrow economic gains. why they don't choose the mine dumps that the
companies and businesses their fore farthers have made? why they don't choose
land that is not agricultural productive, why do they choose land along the
coast? if they want to have their own land. it its clear that they are after
resources that their forefathers stole from others. why they don't want to
share the resources with everyone else? we should unite against racism at all
cost its a desease that needs to be outrooted but we can not deal with it
completely without defeating capitalism first, as black, coloured, indian,
arab, chinesse etc are all in a life mission of maximum extraction of resources
and expanding private property, to make profits, accumulate these profits and
sustain their rediculously luxirious life style of over cosumption and over
production.
