"Our shackles had been cast off the shackles that had tied us down for hundreds of years. The weight of centuries of oppression was no longer holding us down, even though our backs bore scars of the cruel lashes of those who had whipped and subjected us for more than 300 years. On that day, as a united people, we stood tall as South Africans. Today, 30 years later, we gather as a united people of all races at the same Union buildings that once symbolized our pain and our oppression. As we celebrate today, we recall and honor all those who fought for justice, for peace, for freedom in our land."

STORYLINE:
South Africa marked 30 years since the end of apartheid and the birth of its democracy with a ceremony in the capital Saturday that included a 21-gun salute and the waving of the nation's multicolored flag.
But any sense of celebration on the momentous anniversary was set against a growing discontent with the current government.
President Cyril Ramaphosa presided over the gathering in a huge white tent in the gardens of the government buildings in Pretoria as head of state.
He also spoke as the leader of the African National Congress party, which was widely credited with liberating South Africa's Black majority from the racist system of oppression that made the country a pariah for nearly a half-century.
The ANC has been in power ever since the first democratic, all-race election of April 27, 1994, the vote that officially ended apartheid.
But this Freedom Day holiday marking that day fell amid a poignant backdrop: Analysts and polls predict that the waning popularity of the party once led by Nelson Mandela is likely to see it lose its parliamentary majority for the first time as a new generation of South Africans make their voices heard in what might be the most important election since 1994 next month.
“Few days in the life of our nation can compare to that day, when freedom was born,” Ramaphosa said in a speech centered on the nostalgia of 1994, when Black people were allowed to vote for the first time, the once-banned ANC swept to power, and Mandela became the country's first Black president. “South Africa changed forever. It signaled a new chapter in the history of our nation, a moment that resonated across Africa and across the world.”
“On that day, the dignity of all the people of South Africa was restored,” Ramaphosa said.
Ramaphosa, who stood in front of a banner emblazoned with the word “Freedom,” also recognized the major problems South Africa still has three decades later with vast poverty and inequality, issues that will be central yet again when millions vote on May 29. Ramaphosa conceded there had been “setbacks."
The 1994 election changed South Africa from a country where Black and other non-white people were denied most basic freedoms, not just the right to vote.
Laws controlled where they lived, where they were allowed to go on any given day, and what jobs they could have.
After apartheid fell, a Constitution was adopted guaranteeing the rights of all South Africans no matter their race, religion, gender or sexuality.
South Africa is still the most unequal country in the world in terms of wealth distribution, according to the World Bank, with race a key factor.

    For "YOG" George Michael. The Lord’s Prayer Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

    Murica owns a lot of land in Ukraine, they have medical facilities there, they did a lot of deals (the Bidens) there. Before the war everyone in the world knew that Ukraine is the most corrupt country in Europe but know it a taboo talking about it, but the articles/videos are still out there. Also, those grains they own, landed in Europe not in Africa, so when they cried about "evil Putin" stopping the shipping transport and causing starvation in Africa, they lied. America is scamming the world for decades. They own the most military bases around the world. Japan, S-Korea, Ukraine, Germany, Poland etc. are belong to the USA. And before some IQ warrior zombie start to accusing me that I am a Russian bot, I have to disappoint you. Pooptin is a self-serving boomer pr1ck, but he knows what is really going on with the West, he knows that the Westy gl0balists want to take over the world and he tries to stop it.

      He is corrupt, he loves to "support" his buddies but he is the only one who is against the gl0balist West and wants to preserve the country and the Hungarian people. He built up Hungary from the effing pile of sh1t that the s0cialist created out of it. If you know English you are in a good position to do research about the gl0balists and what is really going on in the world right now. Look up Memology 101 for starters, or RomanianTVee

    03.05.24 года по всем городам украины будут просто катастрофические мероприятия по мобилизации. Забирать приказано всех мужчин, которых увидели. Отцепляют район, хватают всех, грузят сразу в подготовленный транспорт и через два-три дня на фронт. От себя добавим, что даже ранее "неприкосновенные" предприятия в Запорожской и Черниговской областях теперь решением властей обязаны представить в ТЦК определенный процент живой силы для отправки на фронт. При невыполнении решения властей, ТЦК зайдет на предприятия и будут хватать "кого поймают". Сроки подготовки военнослужащих, по нашим данным, перед отправкой на фронт будут действительно минимальными. Настоятельно рекомендуем уходить огородами в Румынию, у кого есть возможность, либо прятаться, раз нет сил организованно сопротивляться киевскому режиму.
