Say it isn't so. Bishop Tutu admitted things were better then than now.

If America serves as any example, black South African leadership will be blaming whites for their self-inflicted problems for at least the next 150 years.

Under Apartheid Soith Afreeka was a safe and peaceful country.
Marxists don't like that.

Rev. Desmond Tutu is a useful idiot. What did he think Marxists like Mugabe in Zimbabwe and Nelson Mandela in South Africa would do when they took over. They and their ANC Parties have destroyed or are destroying their countries and turning them in to third world dung heaps. It's too late Rev. Tutu. The destruction is well advanced in South Africa. Zimbabwe is a basket case. It was all so easy to see for anyone with who understands the cancer Marxists represent.

They elected a bunch of socialists and wonder why they’re living in misery?
Don’t laugh: we’re doing the same thing here....

Stature? Tutu is a anti-Semitic Marxist douchebag. That’s what his “stature” is with me!

While bad now, the English Colonial system really helped most 3rd world countries. The French, Dutch, Italians and Germans didn’t. Why the difference?

I remember this clown on 60 Minutes decades ago and Don Hewitt’s typically racial pandering piece in which Tutu is presented as 100% good guy and his repetitious “Come over, come over” (to our side).
Now 20+ years later the damage is done. If he truly felt this way, then he’s speaking out waaaayyyyy too late. SA has been a hellhole for ages yet its politics were treated as a one way street, with whites being the heavies and blacks always the victims. Doesn’t work here, doesn’t work there.
To: MinorityRepublican
He said whites mostly dominate industry and that there should be a "radical transformation" to distribute economic resources more equally. Read that as "just like they did in Zimbabwe." These buggers have a perpetual scapegoat now, so I'm not holding out much hope of any change for the better. They didn't want freedom; they wanted stuff.

Tutu has obviously never studied the history of Africa. Things were far, far worse before apartheid. And they’re going to be that way again soon.

As for Tutu, he caused all this because he is an idiot communist.
But note he is still worshiped even though he screwed everything up.

Tutu is an absolute ass! Seems like this twerp was on the local news out of Boston at least once a month speaking to one cocktail party after another while denouncing white rule as disastrous for SA.
Now SA is the DetroitAtlantaWashingtonDCPhiladelphia black-led debacle he wished for and got.

The Afrikaners WERE a legitimate white “tribe”. Very few blacks were there originally.
Their mistake was importing cheap black labor from further north from other countries. When those populations overwhelmed the white populations. The black populations took over, albeit through the communist ANC and commie mandala.
Had the whites did their own labor, There would still be an Afrikaner run captitalist South Africa.

Imagine you are a member of an ethnic group that is subjugated and oppressed.
Imagine that, partly because of YOUR activism, and YOUR oratory, that yoke of oppression is cast aside.
Imagine that the very person you supported in your activism and your oratory becomes the President of your Nation.
Now, imagine all that! WHERE do you decide to make your home?
