I agree. Put all the white people in their own homeland and let them live like they made the blacks live. Give them their own homeland and don't let them out. So what if they're still successful, just as long as they don't live near the superior blacks.
The "change" is demolishing the country. Socialism (ie state owned banks, mines, 'free education' ) isn't a healthy option as the country is incredibly poor. Free education is a fantasy. This man is like a 2 year old Tolkien - writes nothing but fiction.
Lime Lite i dont think we should do anything to white people. the best action is not that of revenge. thats wasted money. 'Empowerment' is what is best. empower all people and repair the unequal state of south africa
lol haha South African politics is getting more interesting :) now i can watch Parliamentary debates i bet MP's would no longer sleep in parliament anymore !
Lol haha the look on the honerable Cyril Ramaphosa jst makes me laugh ! He doesn't even want to look at Malema ! Haha I'm waiting for the attack on the guy who was giving too many objections and orders ..I'm sure soon enough he wil also be sorted ! :)
I think its time for old people to take a rest now and let their children and grandchildren fight their battles ... politics will be even more fun and adhesive if more youth engage or acquire seats in parliament ! we want to see more young whites! Afrikaaners ! Coloureds and blacks in Parliament bcos they are the ones who knows wat this country needs ! :)
finally, the A.N.C has a valid opposition party since 1994: I am an A.N.C voter, however, I hated the fact that the ruling party had no opposition party post 20 years. my friends and I, had had multiple conversation about the statue of botha outside the parliament, that statue should be gone yesterday. Therefore, as much as I don't agree with everything the EFF represent but their presence shall make my party work harder, productive and produce measurable result.
I'm a JUJU supporter! This guy might be disrespectful as fuck, but he doesn't fuck around. He is going to play such a vital part in Parliament. The fact he is able to directly call out ANC and thier lack of service delivery etc. Damn I'm going all in with politics this next 5 years. Dankie Juju
Lungile, Juju is no saint and he is JUST as corrupt as many of our current politicians. The way I see it though, if he goes down...he won't be going down without a mega brawl.It's good that we have a character to shake and challenge the government in such a way. Long term he will never be our president, but he certainly has a role to play hey? Lungile Moyo
88motho YOU know he is corrupt and our courts and detectives don't. I dont know man... i dont think he's corrupt. He has been in court with judges that dont like him... if you are saying he is corrupt then you are saying we have a bigger problem. A court system that is incapable of finding an 'obviously guilt man' guilty. think about it.
The problem with the EFF is they stand for black power, black heroes, black empowerment etc. We should have a leader of equality. We should have South African power, South African hereos, South African empowerment etc. Yes, the majority of the country is black but the needs of the majority should never outweigh the needs of the minority and visa versa
That is not a problem at all...it is a natural state of transition...after years of oppression we do need black empowerment. You would not understand that because you never had to cut your childs hair because the school though it was unkempt(meaning not straight enough). You never worry when you buy a bandage plaster that it might no match your skin colour. You never worry that you might not find books for your children that also tells their narratives. You never worry that your son might be stopped by a neighbourhood watch guns ready to fire just because he is black...Equality can never happen unless we are all equal which we can clearly see by wealth distribution we are not there yet...we are the most unequal country in the whole wide world...equality starts when my mother does not have to leave us in the house at 4 in the morning just to go to some white ladies house to feed and bathe white ladies children while we sit at home hungry and dirty. That is where equality starts...
"Yes, the majority of the country is black but the needs of the majority should never outweigh the needs of the minority." Wow really? If I travel to Mars tomorrow then it would make sense to empower the Green people, and not bend them to my will, that is unless I was trying to run apartheid. Majority rules. If the majority of the country is African then it would make sense that the Africans should be empowered by their own land and culture.
As i have already stated - equality means that we should have an equally elected president - who stands for equal rights and equal responsibilties. Sure black people were wronged in the past - but that is clearly all over now - do you think it is equality to have one paticular type of people in a higher place of power than another? Do you think it is equality to turn apartheid around on the white people to make it fair? I think not - and if you believe that then you are just as bad as the apartheid government. Also was i born during apartheid? Was i the one that personally put it in place? No i was not - so why must it affect me? That is why i stand for equality and democracy to make sure that NOBODY is put into a disadvantaged state. I understand Affrimitive Action and that we have laws that make sure black people get jobs but we must all be looked after. Forget creed, race and heritage. We are all South Africans. We're all equal.
Casey Milledge Oh my gosh Casey...I really did not want to answer you...is it real all over now?????? Over for who??? Just like the many white people in our country your privilege blinds you to the many harsh realities many black people still face today because of apartheid. You think just putting a black face in parliament undoes years of damage. I understand Casey...it is fear that makes you want to justify situations. You are afraid of having your privilege taken from you but that is not an excuse. The truth is when apartheid ended it did not systematically end the same day. A process like that (zimbabwe) would traumatise and not heal. That does not mean we have to ignore the effects and not rectify them. When apartheid ended I was about 7 years old...Do you know what that means to my family????????????? It means I was the first member of my family to get a proper education and attend a University. Even when I did attend University because my mother was a domestic worker I had no money to finish my studies. That is a direct link to apartheid...something my dear Casey called generational privilege...A white kid who was born the same year as me had better opportunities and probably was bought a car on her first day of university. Whereas I when I get a job have on my shoulders the burden of providing for my family members who were denied a better education because of apartheid. That we see today...the way you use the word equality I am beginning to think we do not live in the same country (theoretically we do not because we grow up on different sides) because if you think that the people living in Khayelitsha chose to live there and are offered just as many opportunities as those in Cape Town then well you still have a lot to learn in terms of defining equality. Equality means being afforded the same opportunities but black people today are still not being offered the same opportunities. There is still no form of reliable transportation linking them to cities after apartheid threw them to the outskirts of civilisation. After the 1994 election my grandmother went to work for her white madam and that month received her R70 wages...Oppression does not end when you put black people in power it is a system and like any system it needs to be dismantled from the core...I am sorry it makes you uncomfortable...I would be uncomfortable too if I was white and guilty of enjoying privilege on the backs of the oppressed....
Azrael6394 Exactly for years they behaved like the majority and mistreated the majority which are black people...today they want an all inclusive society...It is their greed that has led to black power...without apartheid there would be no need for 'black power' 'white power' because we black people are an inclusive society. We never once minded sharing the resources until we were exploited lol..
For the first time the South African parliament sounds like a parliament of a people who fought and defeated apartheid with a specific mission to give effect to that victory instead of apologizing to our oppressors for having oppressed us. It is not us who are supposed to apologize. We did not oppress ourselves, we were oppressed and those who oppressed us owe us an apology not the other way round. Many of our martyrs who survived the war have since passed on without having received that apology instead insult to their injury, in the form of apologies to our oppressors, was the order of the day to date. ASIKHULUME!
How will an apology help South Africans move forward, speaking in economic terms? What form of appolgy is needed exactly? Do we need to take out guns and sjamboks and chase every white person out of South Africa to finally receive our apology? Do we need to drive away all forms of stability that this country relies upon for foreign investments and strong economic activity (Which by the way majority comes from "the white man's land")? Tell me isn't violence the primary form of oppression? Don't forget, but do forgive and just get on with life.. forgiving is not for the enemy and it is very empowering. That's how Mr Mandela and others like him won the support of the world.
This kind of oneway thinking is one of the things that started apartheid in the first place, that is how it all started by not leaving room for any integration. "An eye for an eye leave the whole world blind"
Yes, Obbey Mabena and the specific reason is to kill all whites and steal their possessions. The problem with your view point is that two wrongs do not make a right. It's not OK for a black government to oppress white people if it's not OK for a white government to oppress black people. Unfortunately you are too racist to see it from the white perspective. Like julias, I am also telling it like it is.
What bedevils progress in the normalization of the situation in our country is precisely the attitude that is exuded by these respondents to my post. They refuse to acknowledge that an end to apartheid cannot come about in an order of business as usual. There is a need for fundamental change and in the satisfaction of that need their role is critical. But their attitude is that as superior beings they do the crime and we do the time. ASIKHULUME!
Obbey Mabena I have been waiting for this statement with baited breath. The last bastion of the indefensible by Obbey: "It's not my fault that I am not succeeding. It apartheid/white people's fault". Apartheid is being kept alive by those who blame it for their inability to move progressively forward. Apartheid is being kept alive by racism in legislation, i.e. BEE. As long as you keep blaming apartheid for your current situation, it is alive. What fundametal change are you talking about? What need has to be fulfilled? Be a man, shown us your racism openly.
Talk about awesome rarity!I'm wowed at his bravery and how he held the bull with its horns.Courage is very expensive therefore shouldn't be expected to cheap people whose wish is to be loved and accepted as who they are not.I like this guy's courage and how he speaks the truth as to whether or not he does it,its a subject of another day
I do understabd what Malema is saying... Problem is he can be so disrespecful, thus ppl not taking him seriously, BUT ONLY IF he can change the attitude, EFF will prosper
A good leader must posses these two characters,a lion and a lamb characters.u can pass ur message across in humility, and you will command more respect from ppl.the way a man passes messages, even if its true what they are sayin,its either the message can convince the ppl to follow u or they can look at u and say , ur just one of them. Humility is the solid foundation of all virtues. I LOV JULIUS THOUGH
You're so right hey. EVERYTHING does indeed go down to anarchy and chaos. But that is sadly and largely attributed to the fact that Black People were always degraded to lower beings by their white counterparts.... so in short... its your forefather's fault that its like this... go piss on their graves now....
I grew up in anarchy and chaos...EVERYTHING descends into 'anarchy and chaos' because of the white mans greed. Why on Gods earth do you people not like sharing. Why are you not an inclusive people. We Africans are by nature an inclusive civilisation. We welcomed you when you came over the seas and landed on our shores...you bit us. Even after you bit us we forgave you but you keep biting us. It is the greed of the West that has turned Africa into what you now call anarchy and chaos. Even after your fore fathers had plundered and taken everything they still want more...We africans are not land grabbers we lived on the land with the land. Never took more from it than it gave...then your greedy forefathers came and are still killing our land. If we do not descend into anarchy or chaos we will lose all we have...this is our home...it is all we have. And we done with toyi toyi and burning shit DONE...a new breeze of leaders is being born and you are right to be scared because they won't take any mirrors from you....
FreeVerse Wa ga Montsho Being and anarchist, you were probably a proponent of the ANC's "Liberation before Education" doctrine, which has resulted in your inability to read a history book and explains your warped understanding of South Africa's history.
Jabubu Solomon I never said I was an anarchist to quote myself: 'And we are done with toyi toyi and burning shit DONE......' Do you know the meaning of anarchy? or are you just farting answers.where do I state I am one...Without liberation how can people get educated anyway????Do slave masters ever want their slaves educated??WOW you are quite the analyst...I think you should take your own advice(or whatever it is that is your point) and pick up a history book that is not biased on South African history...I am an African studies scholar so I have a great idea what I am talking about....lol i think you should learn to read,understand and respond...not read to answer...#smh
The problem with Malema is that he thinks Blacks are EQUAL to whites. And that they deserve the same treatment, social status and regard in society as whites! :) - People who have a problem with what Malema is saying, subconsciously think this way, believing that the poor state is black people in a black majority is ok, as it stems from black people's natural inferiority! - if you think this way then what Malema says wont make sense to you and it will sound like arrogant hatred. open your mind, and unlock yourself from the myth of White supremacy & social indoctrination. (i know its hard) But you'll then realize that the country needs changing as Malema says!
Im white and im young its very hard to find a job. Im qualified have work experience but battle to stay financially healthy because of this degrading economy. I hate that i wasnt even apart of apartheid and me and my black,coloured and indian friends all battle to find work because of the decisions of the ANC and the apartheid.!! Stop with the racism,I was never apart of it so why must the youth always suffer?My opinion is everybody had a chance to make a difference and you failed. Focus on the youth!! We will rid racism because we dont believe or even see it!!! Last time I saw a colour was a rainbow after heavy rains.
Being white and a non-EFF, non-Julius fan. I will admit that i like the fact that he points out where the ruling party is making their mistakes. If the DA had won the election and not lived up to their promises i would like to see him do the same. Having said all of that... Julius is 33 years old... so he would have been 13 when apartheid ( the dumbest thing ever ) was abolished. He has lived more of his life in a non-apartheid South-Africa than what he did in it. The last Elections was the first time people who where born after the abolishment of Apartheid would be allowed to vote. A whole new generation who (if BEE had worked) should be on equal terms. I am not a political person. But all i ask for is that people should give credit when its due and know when to hold your tongue. My blood is green. Cause just like Julius, I am a SOUTH-AFRICAN.
I agree with some of your points. But Its impossible to be on equal terms when some white people own 4 hectars of farms in WC. Opeinhemmer ganners $10b wealth. Black graduates are 10 times less likely to be employed by "you know who's companies. You aware white people own 75% of the economy. This continues to grow where the rich get richer and the poor gets poorer. So tell me how can everyone be on level terms?
I agree with you but also remember that you don't need to have lived during apartheid to be affected by it. His family situation was most likely dire as a result of apartheid and that's something one lives with every single day even post-apartheid. These are the consequences of a terrible regime. Anyway, I think the conversation needs to be more about rich and poor than black and white, as there are both filthy rich blacks and poor/downtrodden whites as well. The colour labeling just fuels racism. It doesn't help the situation at all.
Okay that seems to be a solution, it can move us forward. But you will have to exclude those who did not benefit thanks to apartheid. Which is impossible to do because some social factors are not deterministic. But it can be done
I never ever thought I'd say this (I'm not a supporter of Malema or the EFF), BUT this guy has some valid points. Okay, he obviously has a few points that are absolute bullcrap, but some of what he says is incredibly accurate. I doubt he wrote that speech
Why do you doubt that? He is consistent and has not let the set of power change his view. he is a breath of fresh air and truth to that house full of shape shifters and snakes.
Xolisile V Because most politicians do not write their own speeches. Even Barack Obama gets speeches written for him. That's the reason why I say doubt he wrote the speech
This is the most heroic revolutionary brown African i have seen in my lifetime. Thank you commander in Chief, i am now ready to donate R10 000 to EFF for this most beautiful speech, most heroic speech, mind inspiring and blowing speech. you have kept the African revolution alive. Thank you very much.
Iam sure the YT SA have a hit on his head. they are shaking in their boots. Mr. Malema, I support you. I support Mugabe. I support Black Africa. I will be in SA in April 2015. Peace.
CIC include some Boers in the EEF because I believe there are some farmers who are willing even to donate at least some piece of land to the state and to the masses find them and honor them.
I have watched 1 more time and i am going for the third time. Commander in Chief, now i understand why these colonialists and their slaves want to jail you. you delivered the most powerful speech of the century and this is unmatched in recent history. The enemies are terrified.
Seriously though, the orders were eating on his time. President spoke for hours and people were sleeping. Yes diplomacy with Malema is an issue but the Guy has got you thinking. His statistics are straight from StatsSA. Something to ponder, If the same rate and effort which was placed in building the world cup stadiums and infrastructure improvements was to be applied to Building schools, hospitals and other socio-economic fundamentals, where will RSA be in 5 years? Learn some diplomacy Mr Malema but thanks to the radical approach, you stir up action. EFF for the Future
Wow, i am just impressed 1:36 second into this video. i am just amazed by this truth. wow. Viva Commander in Chief Malema, you made me feel alive again. Thank you.
Big ups and respect to you Mr. Honorable speaker and your followers. I applaud you for your courage to expose the truth about high powered officials. Thank you for standing against white supremacy. You have truly inspired me. If there was a way for me to hear you speak then I will be there to support your full agenda. 1 luv Bredren
SABC can you see how many people are watching president Malema on the internet alone? that is as of today 524 495, no one will watch Zuma like this. The commander in Chief is our light and we love him because he speaks justice, the justice that millions are hungry for.
if you listen closely there are times that Malema is telling the truth....such as that the economic situation hasn't changed since apartheid...the means of production are still owned by the White colonialits..economic liberation did not occur..feel sorry for this country...even listen to what the White man says in relation to language...haya,,,,
"Mr President you were on a paraffin speed to building stadium for the 2010 soccer world cup, but you are failing to build school and you are failing to build basic things like, Toilets"
Peoples opinions should be respected at all times, Yes Julius may have spoken ill previously, but the content of his address is spot on. we need his caliber. For instance, more and more people including most of you that have commented here are curious to know what is going to happen in parliament next, I still maintain that the people that have brought the parliament in to disrepute in the past week is Ma'Lindiwe Sisulu. Julius Malema, Mosi Maimane and General Holomisa spoke sense and one of the my worries amongst many things is the inability of the Chair person of NCOP to be neutral. she is Biased and will cause chaos.
Hi there, I am a 20 year old white South African. I have lived in this country all my life and I have friends who are of all different races. I wasn't born into apartheid but I can see the after affects of it still today. I am only a single person in this country and by myself I cant change what has happened to SA. I am not a racist but I would like to ask a few questions: To the black readers of this post - Some of you say that you want us whites to leave South Africa, you want to kick us out, you want to label ALL of us as criminals - what of those who weren't part of apartheid, the whites who were born from 1994 on-wards? Do you think we deserve the same treatment that you received before 1994? Even after Mandela said that as a nation we must forgive and move forward as one mind... Will you receive satisfaction out of watching us whites, die (as some radicals want us dead), leave South Africa and with that taking our skill sets with us that could have improved South Africa so much more? I do admit that my people have made a fuck ton of mistakes in the past and we still make a lot today but, how is that blacks are still more concerned with our mistakes when the most obvious problem with South Africa is her corrupt government which's majority is mainly made of blacks? I give praise to Julius Malema for what he is doing, he is giving the ANC more of a fight than the DA is but what I don't understand is why he labels all of us (whites) as a problem and he may not have said it in this video but he has in the past. I do not think he is a stupid man, I think he is well educated and has balls of steel to say the things he says. If I have offended any body in this post I am truly sorry, I am just here to seek some answers.
Mr Malema now is the time to make them dance.How long is going to take for us to be free and how long is going to take for us to claim our land back.We will not rest until we are provided with what is due to us.We voted for you for the main reason, we knew that you are the perfect leader ,we waited so long to leader who can lead us to the promise land.Viva Mr Malema Viva.
JULIUS MALEMA IS A GOOD ORATOR ACCORDING TO THE NEWS MEDIA HE LACKS THE THREE QUALITIES THAT A MAN OF METIT SHOULD POSSESS. THESE QUALITIES ARE ALLEGEDLY: HONESTY, CIVILITY AND COMPETENCE. CHANGE TO MERIT AND I WILL VOTE FOR YOU.
This is not anymore of the black to black or white to white issues. Julius Malema is the perfect change and push factor for the parliamental candidates to step up their game. His kind of leadership however,according to me is not acceptable at all. The very same treatement of Apartheid that was enforced on black communities back in the years is the one that he is enforcing on white communities. If that, according to you Ratanang Mokoena is the kind of leadership you prefer, then maybe God chose a bad era for you to be born in.
Looking at the MP's you can tell that they thought this is just a small boy making unnecessary noise, not knowing what is to come in the next few years
Kabelo we must admit that we are still a developing country and inorder for us to improve more we will have to send students to go oversees and study in university like harvard
I feel like I'm watching a bunch of kids This is why nothing gets done, people don't like listening to each other but they want to be heard, none of the country's problems will be solved if this carries on
Don't know what you guys are on about. The problem is not Black or White. I am White and my best friends are Black ? Why are the older generation worrying about the past ? The problem is the ANC. This beautiful country is dying due to corruption in our government. The problem is not White or Black. We as White and Black and others must stand together for change. Not be against each other.
Pple I believe Julius is a good man, in fact I believe despite all that the media has hunted and captured of him, he just stands firm, all Julius is doing is to tell the truth and be against what everybody turns a blind eye on, for example every body know the faults of the ANC and never faces it, every body wants to say something about the distribution of land but they don't, so he faces all those things, I like it when he says he was part of the ANC and up until their differences they haven't mentioned how corrupt he is but now they know, which just points a straight finger to the ANC leaders on to how corrupt they are. In fact I am a member of ANC moreover I am a White Afrikaans from Pretoria but I still belive Malema is right.
PLEASE GUYS!! MY FELLOW BLACK AND WHITE SOUTH AFRICANS.LET US NOT BE DIVIDED BY POLITICS,LET US REMEMBER THE LONG WAY WE COMING FROM.POLITICS IS A GAME, TODAY THEY WEAR THIS T SHIRT TOMMOROW THE OTHER.LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER AND LET POLITICS BE POLITICS. ANYWAY MY PRESIDENT IS JESUS CHRIST BECAUSE I KNOW WHERE I AM GOING AND REMEMBER IN THIS WORLD WE ARE FOR A SHORT SEASON. LET THE SPIRIT OF LOVE REINGS IN OUR COUNTRY FOREVER!!
He made loads of valid points and took the bull by the horns. As much as I support many of the points I disapprove of his manner of approach and believe he needs to be trained on presentation skills and public speaking in order to deliver points in a way that is not offensive. Respect goes a long way.
after listening to this guy i decided to even change my profile picture and put one of my black friends. yea its true we should try to learn at least one of their languages. I am still learning Xhosa. #Am_not_into_politics_thou . I am against racism. I love my neighbors as i love myself.
Honourable Malema well said...A FEARLESS POWERFUL LEADER...A TRUE EPITOME THAT LEADERS ARE BORN AND NOT MADE.........
This is a powerful MAN !
I agree. Put all the white people in their own homeland and let them live like they made the blacks live. Give them their own homeland and don't let them out. So what if they're still successful, just as long as they don't live near the superior blacks.
+Lime Lite you are write !
The "change" is demolishing the country. Socialism (ie state owned banks, mines, 'free education' ) isn't a healthy option as the country is incredibly poor. Free education is a fantasy. This man is like a 2 year old Tolkien - writes nothing but fiction.
Lime Lite i dont think we should do anything to white people. the best action is not that of revenge. thats wasted money. 'Empowerment' is what is best. empower all people and repair the unequal state of south africa
Arabella Hoets It became a reality for Libya why not SA?
This speech scared me to death, because I agree with every word he said.
lol haha South African politics is getting more interesting :) now i can watch Parliamentary debates i bet MP's would no longer sleep in parliament anymore !
Lol! I agree. Who would've known it's this entertaining!
Lol haha the look on the honerable Cyril Ramaphosa jst makes me laugh ! He doesn't even want to look at Malema ! Haha I'm waiting for the attack on the guy who was giving too many objections and orders ..I'm sure soon enough he wil also be sorted ! :)
I think its time for old people to take a rest now and let their children and grandchildren fight their battles ... politics will be even more fun and adhesive if more youth engage or acquire seats in parliament ! we want to see more young whites! Afrikaaners ! Coloureds and blacks in Parliament bcos they are the ones who knows wat this country needs ! :)
Why the fuck is Cyril laughing!!! Shut the fuck up and get on with it!! Hiding his ego burst!!! mxm!! THE YOUTH WILL RULE!!!
finally, the A.N.C has a valid opposition party since 1994: I am an A.N.C voter, however, I hated the fact that the ruling party had no opposition party post 20 years. my friends and I, had had multiple conversation about the statue of botha outside the parliament, that statue should be gone yesterday. Therefore, as much as I don't agree with everything the EFF represent but their presence shall make my party work harder, productive and produce measurable result.
I like the way you think here Derek .. It shows that we have a chance of moving forward in our great country
Very intelligent statement.
objective
that would be the first time in 20 years
name a politician thats not corrupt I'll show you a politician corrupt...
I'm a JUJU supporter!
This guy might be disrespectful as fuck, but he doesn't fuck around.
He is going to play such a vital part in Parliament. The fact he is able to directly call out ANC and thier lack of service delivery etc. Damn I'm going all in with politics this next 5 years. Dankie Juju
If he doesn't get permanently kicked out.
same guy that owes SARS cash hey, cash that could help better hospitals and schools!!! but Im with you he doesn't fuck around but he's also greedy!!!
Lungile, Juju is no saint and he is JUST as corrupt as many of our current politicians. The way I see it though, if he goes down...he won't be going down without a mega brawl.It's good that we have a character to shake and challenge the government in such a way. Long term he will never be our president, but he certainly has a role to play hey?
Lungile Moyo
Shame on you people, running the country. Sad.
88motho YOU know he is corrupt and our courts and detectives don't. I dont know man... i dont think he's corrupt.
He has been in court with judges that dont like him... if you are saying he is corrupt then you are saying we have a bigger problem. A court system that is incapable of finding an 'obviously guilt man' guilty. think about it.
"I have no time for racist questions!"
LMFAO! Malema you're a legend! :''''D
This remains one of the best speeches by CIC Julius Sello Malema
The problem with the EFF is they stand for black power, black heroes, black empowerment etc. We should have a leader of equality. We should have South African power, South African hereos, South African empowerment etc. Yes, the majority of the country is black but the needs of the majority should never outweigh the needs of the minority and visa versa
That is not a problem at all...it is a natural state of transition...after years of oppression we do need black empowerment. You would not understand that because you never had to cut your childs hair because the school though it was unkempt(meaning not straight enough). You never worry when you buy a bandage plaster that it might no match your skin colour. You never worry that you might not find books for your children that also tells their narratives. You never worry that your son might be stopped by a neighbourhood watch guns ready to fire just because he is black...Equality can never happen unless we are all equal which we can clearly see by wealth distribution we are not there yet...we are the most unequal country in the whole wide world...equality starts when my mother does not have to leave us in the house at 4 in the morning just to go to some white ladies house to feed and bathe white ladies children while we sit at home hungry and dirty. That is where equality starts...
"Yes, the majority of the country is black but the needs of the majority should never outweigh the needs of the minority." Wow really?
If I travel to Mars tomorrow then it would make sense to empower the Green people, and not bend them to my will, that is unless I was trying to run apartheid. Majority rules. If the majority of the country is African then it would make sense that the Africans should be empowered by their own land and culture.
As i have already stated - equality means that we should have an equally elected president - who stands for equal rights and equal responsibilties.

That is why i stand for equality and democracy to make sure that NOBODY is put into a disadvantaged state. I understand Affrimitive Action and that we have laws that make sure black people get jobs but we must all be looked after. Forget creed, race and heritage. We are all South Africans. We're all equal.
Casey Milledge Oh my gosh Casey...I really did not want to answer you...is it real all over now?????? Over for who??? Just like the many white people in our country your privilege blinds you to the many harsh realities many black people still face today because of apartheid. You think just putting a black face in parliament undoes years of damage. I understand Casey...it is fear that makes you want to justify situations. You are afraid of having your privilege taken from you but that is not an excuse. The truth is when apartheid ended it did not systematically end the same day. A process like that (zimbabwe) would traumatise and not heal. That does not mean we have to ignore the effects and not rectify them. When apartheid ended I was about 7 years old...Do you know what that means to my family????????????? It means I was the first member of my family to get a proper education and attend a University. Even when I did attend University because my mother was a domestic worker I had no money to finish my studies. That is a direct link to apartheid...something my dear Casey called generational privilege...A white kid who was born the same year as me had better opportunities and probably was bought a car on her first day of university. Whereas I when I get a job have on my shoulders the burden of providing for my family members who were denied a better education because of apartheid. That we see today...the way you use the word equality I am beginning to think we do not live in the same country (theoretically we do not because we grow up on different sides) because if you think that the people living in Khayelitsha chose to live there and are offered just as many opportunities as those in Cape Town then well you still have a lot to learn in terms of defining equality. Equality means being afforded the same opportunities but black people today are still not being offered the same opportunities. There is still no form of reliable transportation linking them to cities after apartheid threw them to the outskirts of civilisation. After the 1994 election my grandmother went to work for her white madam and that month received her R70 wages...Oppression does not end when you put black people in power it is a system and like any system it needs to be dismantled from the core...I am sorry it makes you uncomfortable...I would be uncomfortable too if I was white and guilty of enjoying privilege on the backs of the oppressed....
Azrael6394 Exactly for years they behaved like the majority and mistreated the majority which are black people...today they want an all inclusive society...It is their greed that has led to black power...without apartheid there would be no need for 'black power' 'white power' because we black people are an inclusive society. We never once minded sharing the resources until we were exploited lol..
For the first time the South African parliament sounds like a parliament of a people who fought and defeated apartheid with a specific mission to give effect to that victory instead of apologizing to our oppressors for having oppressed us. It is not us who are supposed to apologize. We did not oppress ourselves, we were oppressed and those who oppressed us owe us an apology not the other way round. Many of our martyrs who survived the war have since passed on without having received that apology instead insult to their injury, in the form of apologies to our oppressors, was the order of the day to date.
ASIKHULUME!
How will an apology help South Africans move forward, speaking in economic terms? What form of appolgy is needed exactly? Do we need to take out guns and sjamboks and chase every white person out of South Africa to finally receive our apology? Do we need to drive away all forms of stability that this country relies upon for foreign investments and strong economic activity (Which by the way majority comes from "the white man's land")? Tell me isn't violence the primary form of oppression? Don't forget, but do forgive and just get on with life.. forgiving is not for the enemy and it is very empowering. That's how Mr Mandela and others like him won the support of the world.
This kind of oneway thinking is one of the things that started apartheid in the first place, that is how it all started by not leaving room for any integration. "An eye for an eye leave the whole world blind"
Yes, Obbey Mabena and the specific reason is to kill all whites and steal their possessions. The problem with your view point is that two wrongs do not make a right. It's not OK for a black government to oppress white people if it's not OK for a white government to oppress black people. Unfortunately you are too racist to see it from the white perspective. Like julias, I am also telling it like it is.
What bedevils progress in the normalization of the situation in our country is precisely the attitude that is exuded by these respondents to my post. They refuse to acknowledge that an end to apartheid cannot come about in an order of business as usual. There is a need for fundamental change and in the satisfaction of that need their role is critical. But their attitude is that as superior beings they do the crime and we do the time.
ASIKHULUME!
Obbey Mabena
I have been waiting for this statement with baited breath. The last bastion of the indefensible by Obbey: "It's not my fault that I am not succeeding. It apartheid/white people's fault". Apartheid is being kept alive by those who blame it for their inability to move progressively forward. Apartheid is being kept alive by racism in legislation, i.e. BEE. As long as you keep blaming apartheid for your current situation, it is alive. What fundametal change are you talking about? What need has to be fulfilled? Be a man, shown us your racism openly.
You not my favourite person but I'm impress how u shaking parliament....great job bhuti
Julius has valid points.....i wish the parliament will look into it seriously.
Talk about awesome rarity!I'm wowed at his bravery and how he held the bull with its horns.Courage is very expensive therefore shouldn't be expected to cheap people whose wish is to be loved and accepted as who they are not.I like this guy's courage and how he speaks the truth as to whether or not he does it,its a subject of another day
I do understabd what Malema is saying... Problem is he can be so disrespecful, thus ppl not taking him seriously, BUT ONLY IF he can change the attitude, EFF will prosper
You confuse disrespectful and telling the truth like it is
he is telling the truth, he just need to be humble
A good leader must posses these two characters,a lion and a lamb characters.u can pass ur message across in humility, and you will command more respect from ppl.the way a man passes messages, even if its true what they are sayin,its either the message can convince the ppl to follow u or they can look at u and say , ur just one of them.
Humility is the solid foundation of all virtues. I LOV JULIUS THOUGH
u still needs to remain humble.you can still pass your message across, and still remain humble.
*****
wtf id wrong with you
So on behalf of my kids and i wish you a happy New year and many years ahead keep it up malima
Like a child who doesn't know how to act like an adult. Why does EVERYTHING in Africa always have to descend into anarchy and chaos?
You're so right hey. EVERYTHING does indeed go down to anarchy and chaos. But that is sadly and largely attributed to the fact that Black People were always degraded to lower beings by their white counterparts.... so in short... its your forefather's fault that its like this... go piss on their graves now....
Right
I grew up in anarchy and chaos...EVERYTHING descends into 'anarchy and chaos' because of the white mans greed. Why on Gods earth do you people not like sharing. Why are you not an inclusive people. We Africans are by nature an inclusive civilisation. We welcomed you when you came over the seas and landed on our shores...you bit us. Even after you bit us we forgave you but you keep biting us. It is the greed of the West that has turned Africa into what you now call anarchy and chaos. Even after your fore fathers had plundered and taken everything they still want more...We africans are not land grabbers we lived on the land with the land. Never took more from it than it gave...then your greedy forefathers came and are still killing our land. If we do not descend into anarchy or chaos we will lose all we have...this is our home...it is all we have. And we done with toyi toyi and burning shit DONE...a new breeze of leaders is being born and you are right to be scared because they won't take any mirrors from you....
FreeVerse Wa ga Montsho Being and anarchist, you were probably a proponent of the ANC's "Liberation before Education" doctrine, which has resulted in your inability to read a history book and explains your warped understanding of South Africa's history.
Jabubu Solomon I never said I was an anarchist to quote myself: 'And we are done with toyi toyi and burning shit DONE......' Do you know the meaning of anarchy? or are you just farting answers.where do I state I am one...Without liberation how can people get educated anyway????Do slave masters ever want their slaves educated??WOW you are quite the analyst...I think you should take your own advice(or whatever it is that is your point) and pick up a history book that is not biased on South African history...I am an African studies scholar so I have a great idea what I am talking about....lol i think you should learn to read,understand and respond...not read to answer...#smh
The problem with Malema is that he thinks Blacks are EQUAL to whites. And that they deserve the same treatment, social status and regard in society as whites! :)
- People who have a problem with what Malema is saying, subconsciously think this way, believing that the poor state is black people in a black majority is ok, as it stems from black people's natural inferiority!
- if you think this way then what Malema says wont make sense to you and it will sound like arrogant hatred.
open your mind, and unlock yourself from the myth of White supremacy & social indoctrination. (i know its hard) But you'll then realize that the country needs changing as Malema says!
Weird enough I agree with him. He either did his research on "what to say" or he is destined for change.
I agree with your second suggestion. He can't be thumb sucking what he has been taught for so many years. He grew up in politics.
Theto Maleka
can someone please translate for me the last words said by Malema.
Powerful
Im white and im young its very hard to find a job. Im qualified have work experience but battle to stay financially healthy because of this degrading economy. I hate that i wasnt even apart of apartheid and me and my black,coloured and indian friends all battle to find work because of the decisions of the ANC and the apartheid.!!
Stop with the racism,I was never apart of it so why must the youth always suffer?My opinion is everybody had a chance to make a difference and you failed. Focus on the youth!! We will rid racism because we dont believe or even see it!!! Last time I saw a colour was a rainbow after heavy rains.
lool "lege okae tima meetse otlono bona e nwele"
Being white and a non-EFF, non-Julius fan. I will admit that i like the fact that he points out where the ruling party is making their mistakes. If the DA had won the election and not lived up to their promises i would like to see him do the same. Having said all of that... Julius is 33 years old... so he would have been 13 when apartheid ( the dumbest thing ever ) was abolished. He has lived more of his life in a non-apartheid South-Africa than what he did in it. The last Elections was the first time people who where born after the abolishment of Apartheid would be allowed to vote. A whole new generation who (if BEE had worked) should be on equal terms. I am not a political person. But all i ask for is that people should give credit when its due and know when to hold your tongue. My blood is green. Cause just like Julius, I am a SOUTH-AFRICAN.
I agree with some of your points. But Its impossible to be on equal terms when some white people own 4 hectars of farms in WC. Opeinhemmer ganners $10b wealth. Black graduates are 10 times less likely to be employed by "you know who's companies. You aware white people own 75% of the economy. This continues to grow where the rich get richer and the poor gets poorer. So tell me how can everyone be on level terms?
I agree with you but also remember that you don't need to have lived during apartheid to be affected by it. His family situation was most likely dire as a result of apartheid and that's something one lives with every single day even post-apartheid. These are the consequences of a terrible regime. Anyway, I think the conversation needs to be more about rich and poor than black and white, as there are both filthy rich blacks and poor/downtrodden whites as well. The colour labeling just fuels racism. It doesn't help the situation at all.
Okay that seems to be a solution, it can move us forward. But you will have to exclude those who did not benefit thanks to apartheid. Which is impossible to do because some social factors are not deterministic. But it can be done
Wow powerful debate from Honourable J.S Malema...
I'm gonna love watching parliament and reading more about it...
I never ever thought I'd say this (I'm not a supporter of Malema or the EFF), BUT this guy has some valid points. Okay, he obviously has a few points that are absolute bullcrap, but some of what he says is incredibly accurate. I doubt he wrote that speech
Why do you doubt that? He is consistent and has not let the set of power change his view. he is a breath of fresh air and truth to that house full of shape shifters and snakes.
Xolisile V Because most politicians do not write their own speeches. Even Barack Obama gets speeches written for him. That's the reason why I say doubt he wrote the speech
Kahle bo
This is the most heroic revolutionary brown African i have seen in my lifetime. Thank you commander in Chief, i am now ready to donate R10 000 to EFF for this most beautiful speech, most heroic speech, mind inspiring and blowing speech. you have kept the African revolution alive. Thank you very much.
" i have no time for racist question"

If we can have 4 Malemas in 4 corners of Africa, viva EFF viva aluta continue
True son of the African soil, JUJU MALEMA! we got your back homeboy, Namibia is behind you!!
wow!!
Parliament just became fun 13:30
wow! I enjoyed this!
2014 and out national broadcaster is still uploading in 480p, LOL
@NieldeVilliers
Agreed
Iam sure the YT SA have a hit on his head. they are shaking in their boots. Mr. Malema, I support you. I support Mugabe. I support Black Africa. I will be in SA in April 2015. Peace.
Africa is Africa my friends it will remain the same we love you mother Africa
CIC include some Boers in the EEF because I believe there are some farmers who are willing even to donate at least some piece of land to the state and to the masses find them and honor them.
HONOURABLE MALEMA THERE IS A LOT OF TRUTH IN WHAT U SAID, HOPE U WOULD HAVE FINISHED YOUR SPEECH
I have watched 1 more time and i am going for the third time. Commander in Chief, now i understand why these colonialists and their slaves want to jail you. you delivered the most powerful speech of the century and this is unmatched in recent history. The enemies are terrified.
Seriously though, the orders were eating on his time. President spoke for hours and people were sleeping. Yes diplomacy with Malema is an issue but the Guy has got you thinking. His statistics are straight from StatsSA. Something to ponder, If the same rate and effort which was placed in building the world cup stadiums and infrastructure improvements was to be applied to Building schools, hospitals and other socio-economic fundamentals, where will RSA be in 5 years?
Learn some diplomacy Mr Malema but thanks to the radical approach, you stir up action. EFF for the Future
No more empty promises Mr President and your cabinet. we will throw straight talk!!!!!!!
SABC, you couldn't fit the aspect of your video into CZcams correctly? Really?
What do you mean?
JUST GO TO YOUR ROOM...NOW ...!!! LOL
Wow, i am just impressed 1:36 second into this video. i am just amazed by this truth. wow. Viva Commander in Chief Malema, you made me feel alive again. Thank you.
How can I donate money to him?
...and that was a brief excerpt from last week's episode of hit new sitcom The Juliass Mal-Enema Show which airs randomly on Parliamentary Channel.
"Please say nothing about 2030 because you will not be there"
so they are making his debate invalid because he doesn't use "Honorable" with describing members of the house?
I wont forget this day,couse this is the day I joined eff,big change from here to where we are now,grow eff grow.
This guy is disrespectful. He didn't write the speech himself, he should go back to school.
Big ups and respect to you Mr. Honorable speaker and your followers. I applaud you for your courage to expose the truth about high powered officials. Thank you for standing against white supremacy. You have truly inspired me. If there was a way for me to hear you speak then I will be there to support your full agenda. 1 luv Bredren
Malema ke bosso straight
SABC can you see how many people are watching president Malema on the internet alone? that is as of today 524 495, no one will watch Zuma like this. The commander in Chief is our light and we love him because he speaks justice, the justice that millions are hungry for.
if you listen closely there are times that Malema is telling the truth....such as that the economic situation hasn't changed since apartheid...the means of production are still owned by the White colonialits..economic liberation did not occur..feel sorry for this country...even listen to what the White man says in relation to language...haya,,,,
He is my CIC, I didn't make a mistake by voting and recruiting members to this party.We cnt be scared to raise issues fearing victimisation.#Salute
Julius Malma is the messenger of God to Africa. i am just left inspired. this man is light in this dark Africa.
My future President Juju Malema
Most of the time he was making a point same were nyoso .but it is wat i expected
"Mr President you were on a paraffin speed to building stadium for the 2010 soccer world cup, but you are failing to build school and you are failing to build basic things like, Toilets"
Stand strong Malema 💯💯💯 tell them the truth I see them laughing it’s because they are scared of the truth you speak.
Peoples opinions should be respected at all times, Yes Julius may have spoken ill previously, but the content of his address is spot on. we need his caliber. For instance, more and more people including most of you that have commented here are curious to know what is going to happen in parliament next,
I still maintain that the people that have brought the parliament in to disrepute in the past week is Ma'Lindiwe Sisulu. Julius Malema, Mosi Maimane and General Holomisa spoke sense and one of the my worries amongst many things is the inability of the Chair person of NCOP to be neutral. she is Biased and will cause chaos.
work
A true man will speak his mind fearlessly.
Hi there, I am a 20 year old white South African. I have lived in this country all my life and I have friends who are of all different races.
I wasn't born into apartheid but I can see the after affects of it still today. I am only a single person in this country and by myself I cant change what has happened to SA.
I am not a racist but I would like to ask a few questions:
To the black readers of this post - Some of you say that you want us whites to leave South Africa, you want to kick us out, you want to label ALL of us as criminals
- what of those who weren't part of apartheid, the whites who were born from 1994 on-wards? Do you think we deserve the same treatment that you received before 1994? Even after Mandela said that as a nation we must forgive and move forward as one mind... Will you receive satisfaction out of watching us whites, die (as some radicals want us dead), leave South Africa and with that taking our skill sets with us that could have improved South Africa so much more?
I do admit that my people have made a fuck ton of mistakes in the past and we still make a lot today but, how is that blacks are still more concerned with our mistakes when the most obvious problem with South Africa is her corrupt government which's majority is mainly made of blacks?
I give praise to Julius Malema for what he is doing, he is giving the ANC more of a fight than the DA is but what I don't understand is why he labels all of us (whites) as a problem and he may not have said it in this video but he has in the past. I do not think he is a stupid man, I think he is well educated and has balls of steel to say the things he says.
If I have offended any body in this post I am truly sorry, I am just here to seek some answers.
Mr Malema now is the time to make them dance.How long is going to take for us to be free and how long is going to take for us to claim our land back.We will not rest until we are provided with what is due to us.We voted for you for the main reason, we knew that you are the perfect leader ,we waited so long to leader who can lead us to the promise land.Viva Mr Malema Viva.
The Stats on Unemployment are "unfair" - They are cumulative, from 1995 - 2013
is there something wrong with his left hand? KEEP IT STILL MAN!
One of the best speeches in Parliament. If not the thee best.
intelligent,Genius and fearless leader... i like Him.He is my president,even though i am from Kenya
Good man!!
THE WORLD NEEDS LEADERS WHO ARE HONEST, CIVIL AND COMPETENT.
LEADERS WHETHER IN PARLIAMENTS, MUNICIPALITIES OR BUSINESS MUST HAVE SAID QUALITIES.
JULIUS MALEMA IS A GOOD ORATOR
ACCORDING TO THE NEWS MEDIA HE LACKS THE THREE QUALITIES THAT A MAN OF METIT SHOULD POSSESS. THESE QUALITIES ARE ALLEGEDLY: HONESTY, CIVILITY AND COMPETENCE. CHANGE TO MERIT AND I WILL VOTE FOR YOU.
I JUST LOVE THIS GUY, JUST THAT WISH HE CAN KEEP TO WHAT MANDELA ASKED HIM TO DO: LOSE WEIGHT, I PRAY THAT HE BECOMES THE PRESIDENT ONE DAY
now that was the truth about the truth
He is here to stay whether you like it or not but you will hear what he has to say. He is a representitive of the masses.
Hahahahaha!!!!
Every1 loves this man,they all just laugh,they have things 2 say when his present...Yah inkunzi kayivinjwa le.
stupid malema
Thats what im talking about,
Woow
it's now been 27 years of Joblessness and unemployment and it's still counting with this ANC government
Looks like our parliament has gone back to the times where a court required a jester.
but what is wrong with this guy???? I wonder how do the people who voted for him feel!
This is not anymore of the black to black or white to white issues. Julius Malema is the perfect change and push factor for the parliamental candidates to step up their game. His kind of leadership however,according to me is not acceptable at all. The very same treatement of Apartheid that was enforced on black communities back in the years is the one that he is enforcing on white communities. If that, according to you Ratanang Mokoena is the kind of leadership you prefer, then maybe God chose a bad era for you to be born in.
Then who are you
This guy is a bloody hooligan! They should kick him out of the Parliament!
well done for making parliament better
Spear on the hand ✋️
I sense leadership skills in Honorable JUJU, however he must keep his cool to avoid being permanently kicked out of the parliament, EFF for SA
SA parliament will never be the same again with EFF around
Looking at the MP's you can tell that they thought this is just a small boy making unnecessary noise, not knowing what is to come in the next few years
Watching this without any fear of contradiction.
Kabelo we must admit that we are still a developing country and inorder for us to improve more we will have to send students to go oversees and study in university like harvard
Even if you think Malema is Stupid but this speech is honest and truthfull
I feel like I'm watching a bunch of kids
This is why nothing gets done, people don't like listening to each other but they want to be heard, none of the country's problems will be solved if this carries on
The CIC is sitting on 88 000 views in just one day this man will be the President like it or not
The reason why Mulema gives the speech in English is the same reason the Boer politician had to speak in English, colonialism!!!!!
Don't know what you guys are on about. The problem is not Black or White. I am White and my best friends are Black ? Why are the older generation worrying about the past ? The problem is the ANC. This beautiful country is dying due to corruption in our government. The problem is not White or Black. We as White and Black and others must stand together for change. Not be against each other.
Pple I believe Julius is a good man, in fact I believe despite all that the media has hunted and captured of him, he just stands firm, all Julius is doing is to tell the truth and be against what everybody turns a blind eye on, for example every body know the faults of the ANC and never faces it, every body wants to say something about the distribution of land but they don't, so he faces all those things, I like it when he says he was part of the ANC and up until their differences they haven't mentioned how corrupt he is but now they know, which just points a straight finger to the ANC leaders on to how corrupt they are. In fact I am a member of ANC moreover I am a White Afrikaans from Pretoria but I still belive Malema is right.
531 843 views this man has following indeed,
PLEASE GUYS!! MY FELLOW BLACK AND WHITE SOUTH AFRICANS.LET US NOT BE DIVIDED BY POLITICS,LET US REMEMBER THE LONG WAY WE COMING FROM.POLITICS IS A GAME, TODAY THEY WEAR THIS T SHIRT TOMMOROW THE OTHER.LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER AND LET POLITICS BE POLITICS. ANYWAY MY PRESIDENT IS JESUS CHRIST BECAUSE I KNOW WHERE I AM GOING AND REMEMBER IN THIS WORLD WE ARE FOR A SHORT SEASON. LET THE SPIRIT OF LOVE REINGS IN OUR COUNTRY FOREVER!!
The truth hurts Juju, but that what happened at marikana someone must get all the blame about that, iam with u
He made loads of valid points and took the bull by the horns. As much as I support many of the points I disapprove of his manner of approach and believe he needs to be trained on presentation skills and public speaking in order to deliver points in a way that is not offensive. Respect goes a long way.
radicalism at its best! JuJu my future president. it must be said the future is bright!
after listening to this guy i decided to even change my profile picture and put one of my black friends. yea its true we should try to learn at least one of their languages. I am still learning Xhosa. #Am_not_into_politics_thou . I am against racism. I love my neighbors as i love myself.
