US. MISSION SOUTH AFRICA
The U.S. Embassy in South Africa received a petition this morning addressed to President Donald Trump, seeking U.S. support to change policies and laws affecting the Afikaner community in South Africa. We will transmit the full text of the document to the President and Secretary of State for immediate action.

Its been going on for some time now. South Africa is one of the most dangerous places on Earth.
I do feel bad for the Whites in South Africa. But this is not new. It’s not a surprise. It’s not our problem to fix. We need to block any thinking that we are some magical “solution” to every problem.
Reverse apartheid?
These are intelligent, peacable, and hard working people in dire need of safety. It doesn't hurt us to allow them here.
We need to block any thinking that we are some magical “solution” to every problem.
OTOH we don't need to blow off an obvious opportunity. Consider that Elon Musk was one of these people.
Totally agree. I’d a hundred percent rather bring in a half million Afrikaners in need of refuge than Gazans of El Salvdorans, or Haitians. So, I guess that makes me just a racist.
If white South Africans were somehow useful to the US woke deep state, they would have received $billions in grants, would have countless NGOs lobbying on their behalf, they would have had movements and media organized to give them power over government or even their own state, and they would have been armed to the hilt and had their forces created and trained by CIA and DoD
But unfortunately for them, they are on exactly the wrong side of the woke narrative- so they will be genocided
I think the mutilation of children by faggots and pedophiles is a bigger story.
Why should they be forced to leave their own country???? Inviting them to the USA is a spineless act of pathetic charity
In many cases, they have been there longer than the blacks who migrated south from central Africa
How about instead helping them protect themselves by all means possible ???
Shouldn’t they be seeking refuge with the Kingdom of the Netherlands that consists of four countries: the Netherlands, Aruba, Curaçao, and Sint Maarten?
Boers should be armed and the commie south african government destabilized
Admission to our nation should be based on one thing and one thing only. Is the immigrant an asset to our nation?
Those Afrikaners would be an asset. The use of fear of political persecution has been used and abused in the extreme by economic refugees and not politically persecuted. Send us your doctors, engineers, chemists, craftsmen, tradesmen, nurses and health care workers etc. NO LAWYERS!
Oddly there is a place for seasonal migrant farm workers. Let them work here legally with the stipulation you can not bring your family. If you work here for 10 years and have had no problems with the law give them a green card and apply for citizenship. After 10 years they have proved their worth.
My brother in law from Mexico took 17 years to get his USA citizenship. He did it all the legal way as should all. He is pissed off about what is happening on the border under Biden.
Orania represents the Dutch Reformed heart of South Africa.
Suriname was formerly a Dutch colony and Dutch is still the official language there. Afrikaans is derived from Dutch so it should not be hard for them to learn Dutch—and supposedly English is widely spoken there (probably most of them know English). Suriname is sparsely populated (10 persons per square mile) but I don’t know if there would be any economic opportunities for the Boers there.
Not our problem.
Why? just because they are white?
WTF does being white have to do with it?
South Africa is South Africa’s problem not America’s.
And to think, when South Africa was settled by the Boers there were just a few Bushmen and Hottentots there, basically an almost empty land. The Zulu Bantus were hundreds of miles to the North East. Now the Zulus have taken over South Africa, and true to Zulu fashion, want to kill everyone.
I’m confused here...
I think we should fly cargo planes in, load up the farmers and bring them here....
I was told they don’t want to leave, then I’m told they want out...
Can someone please clear this up...do the farmers want to leave or not?
If they do, let’s go get them
We don’t really want them here. They are socialists and would vote democrat..
However they do need to be taken in. Russia has resettled about 6 to 900,000.
