Some 27 years after the abolition of apartheid, there are still communities of white South Africans who refuse to mix with their black fellow citizens. It's the case in the town of Orania, where the only language spoken is Afrikaans, the tongue of the first Dutch settlers. In Orania's schools, students are taught an alternative version of history. Our colleagues from France 2 report, with FRANCE 24's James Vasina.
A programme preapred by Patrick Lovett and Gaëlle Essoo.

They have Black only communties in South Africa too.
No they don't....they have no idea what a black community is. However, there are multiple Zulu, Tswana and Xhosa communities.
Duh It's AFRICA .. It's Majority black people. Now find me a black only community in Europe designed by Black people... I'll wait
Fred Focus Paris
kamvajnr dj mhluzi The difference is in black only towns any race can live there. You can’t live in Orania even if you are a rich, well known black person, with no criminal record. You can’t go there if you are Asian or mixed-race either. In a country which is supposed to be majority black. Never anywhere in Europe, would you ever get anything like this. That’s why, a lot of people have issues with it.
They are communities that were allocated to the blacks during the apartheid regime, and don't segregate nor chase anyone of any race, color, gender, unlike this video evidence provided.
If they don’t want to mix who cares. A lot of the black community stays to itself.
Removing historical figures from textbooks is an issue though, it shows how deeply insecure they are. Revisionist history needs to stop
@@TheFamousMockingbird Exactly. I also believe that they want to play the victims and that is why they removed Mandela. Plus if you don't teach history it can repeat itself and who knows.. Maybe that is what they want.
TheFamousMockingbird I DO AGREE THAT CERTAIN PEOPLE ARE IN DEED INSECURE OF THEIR SKIN COLOR
If the whites of Africa are murdered nobody says anything, if they kill blacks in eeeuu it is published in all the news and international organizations, Hypocrites.
@jon cullen the white genocide myth is a tired lie being pushed out by white supremacists deflecting from their own races history of genocide against non white people. Tell me the statistics of black on white killings since the end of apartheid. There is a huge security issue in SA totally mishandled by the ANC but using the word genocide in this way is disingenuous and makes a mockery of the term. By the way I used to live in London and I used to go to Brixton. In recent years it's been taking over by white hipsters. Now that is what I call gentrification :-)
No theft, no murder, no intimidation..... Sounds like the place to be

Yes, blacks should stay in Africa except......that most of you want to come to the white countries.
Uhm.... this is stupid. The "tongue of the first dutch settlers" was.... dutch.
Try telling them that.
They really think the original people are the problem. They did that to the Australian aborigines and native Americans and they still see nothing wrong.
Yes some were Dutch Portugese Spanish and other part of Europe
And Boers were not solely of Dutch decent.
Languages change genius
0:17 Fact check. Afrikaans was not the tongue of the first Dutch settlers. Dutch was.
@ I was simply stating a historic fact. I like accurate history. Afrikaans is not 100% Dutch, and Dutch is most certainly not Afrikaans. They made a mistake. As an Afrikaner, I find their ignorance offensive.
If I said that when the Pilgrims came to America, they spoke modern American English, everyone would think I'm stupid. If I protested and said, "Well, modern American English comes from the British English of a few hundred years ago," I would not have corrected my initial error. It just shows how little effort they put into this.
Gospel Films as a Dutchman I find I can understand Afrikaans always except when it’s very formal
@@lithiumvids9448 Even words like piesang and baie? Yes; you can understand much Afrikaans. My point was just that the video made a factual mistake by saying that the first Dutch settlers spoke Afrikaans, as it was only developed later.
I can see that Afrikaans could have been classified as a Dutch dialect. A very dumbed down version of Dutch. But there are different definitions of what is classified as a language or just a dialect. The old saying goes, "A language is a dialect with an army and a navy." Afrikaans had both and now has neither.
Om eerlik te wees, my volk is te lui om ons taal reg te praat. Hulle meng baie Engelse woorde in. Plus baie vuil vloekwoorde. Hulle kannie die woorde reg spel nie al word byna alles geskryf presies soos dit klink. Die eindresultaat is 'n afgewaterde gemors. Wat moet mens met so volk maak? Net die Here sal weet.
Gospel Films Afrikaans ziet er.......interessant uit ja, en het is volgens mij ook een dialect, want plat Limburgs is ook geen taal terwijl normale Nederlanders dat helemaal niet kunnen verstaan.
Gospel Films and we also have piesang
I've actually been through here as a black South African and the black people there say they feel safer than they do in the city and everyone was friendly to me at least. Also we have loads of black only communities much bigger than this. I'm not sure if others had bad experiences here but I felt extremely safe and my business was welcomed while passing through so personally I can't say anything bad about it
I am American. I always wanted to learn more about South Africa. Fancinating country, but unfortunately I do not understand it much. Why are there black only communities?
@@ryanmiller3126 It's mostly the townships where you have big settlements of black people. Sometimes you find a white or Asian person here or there but it's mostly black however going there as a non black person isn't bad in some places although you'd have to be careful because of the crime. The sad thing is South Africa as a whole is failing. I'm lucky and I'm doing well as a black person but for all races there is a lot of struggle. The government steals a crazy amount of money constantly and no one is held accountable. Crime is extreme and affects blacks Whites Asians it doesn't matter. Basically you have a tiny portion of the population that's doing really well white and black and majority are struggling to get by. In the area I live in there are loads of homeless people of all races and things don't seem to be improving. I truly believe that unless the government changes south Africa will get worse and worse. Many times the people that argue against this are the ones that are doing well and are unaware of the suffering of everyone around them. It's actually really sad because apartheid is over I have many friends of different races that are as close as family for me but it's horrible living in a society where crime is rampant and you have to worry about your loved ones. South Africa should be the wakanda of the world by now but other African countries have learned from their past mistakes and are rising while we fall further and further behind. There are still loads of wonderful places and it's a beautiful country but it's sad to see area after area become horrible and there's areas here that used to be safe where no one wants to go regardless of race so I hope people start seeing that and start turning things around. To be real I feel that if America loses the 2nd amendment it won't be long before things start going the same way because here criminals can get guns extremely easily but getting a gun legally as a citizen is difficult unless you pay someone off. Towns like this in the video actually end up safer than most other towns and in the bigger cities we rely far more on private security than we do police but luckily a lot of the old police the Afrikaans guys have started security companies and when you're affected by crime even as a black person those are the people you want helping you. If you're ever planning to visit South Africa I'd suggest going to Cape Town and the western cape, technically it's listed as more dangerous but that's because of the crime that takes place far away from the main hub of Cape Town so in general its much safer and is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
@@memecusmaximus4880 thank you for your well explained information. It seems that the situation you are explaining is similar to many other places in the world: it’s not really the people that are the problem, it’s the fact that government is wasteful and corrupt (whether overtly or otherwise) and money rules all. Those outside the rule of law (criminals, politicians, big business) get to live fat and happy, while nearly everyone else struggles to some degree. Some struggle massively
And as far as this report/video, it is made for Western audiences, so of course they play up the racism angle to try to constantly divide the people. Our true source of power is together. As long as the powers that be can keep us fighting each other instead of them, all the better in their eyes

As a black South African, I've slept over at a motel in this place. The hospitality and service I received(and overall experience) was amazing! These Afrikaners treated me with absolute respect and the service was impeccable. My brother and parents(who came with me) also admitted that they feel safer in the area, we accidentally left our car unlocked outside with the windows rolled down to keep it cool. Nobody touched our car during the night. If this was PTA or JHB, the car would've been stolen. I don't know what these guys are saying, but they are talking k*k.

How did you ever come up with that one ? Especially, with all of the inequality that America stands for.. You have apparently misspoke. But, I will gladly accommodate in enlightening your indubious ignorance. "It is the aire of White Supremacy, that is running, how it has always been ran." What, if I may ask, is dominated and is running rampant, by the Black Community, other than crime ? We , against our own will, built the foundation, from which others merely profited. And what you witness today, here in America, is only a continuum of a process that was instigated, long before you or I came into existence. We, like everyone else, are only part of an evolutionary dynamic. Part of a trajectory of misfortune for some and most certainly, a benefit for others. If you look deep into your history and you are with a moral compass, you should be ashamed. On the other hand, if that is not the sentiment felt, "GOD have mercy, on your soul."

@@louiemangahis just because they don't recognize him, doesn't mean they are nostalgic about apartheid. Many Afrikaans people are distasteful about the air around his name. He was a literal terrorist that killed several innocent children. Older groups of South Africans despise the way his past is wiped away and how he is praised for things he had little to do with. Even though the abolishment of apartheid was well overdue and a massive change, he was only the posterchild because of his backstory. Read up about the Church street bombing if you are curious as to why he was imprisoned in the first place.
@@lohanventer4400 so Mandela was supposed to sit back and wait for apartheid to end by itself. That's what happens when you oppress people they fight back and you can't set the rules for war, besides the apartheid government killed a lot of black school children way way more than what you are talking about. They are racist just admit the obvious
Correction. Afrikaans is not the tongue of the first dutch settlers. It was in fact first spoken by the workers on the dutch farms and became known as kitchen dutch. If you are going to report news, then know your facts.
True.
You forgot to mention the Khoi and San influence and origins of Afrikaans as they were the ones who created the stable pidgin that could be used between the settlers and the indigenous peoples.
The African influence was later removed to try and present Afrikaans as a "pure" and white language. The Afrikaans movement is currently trying to address this.
not kitchen dutch but '"kaap Hollands"" cape Dutch

well what a SHAME that your ancestors was weak.. just the rule of nature doing it’s work.

yet you don’t see us b*tching about it because we aren’t crybabies and victim olympians, we have actual life problems unlike the whiny privileged west and some of the salty victim olympians in Africa who couldn’t move past what the white people did to their ancestors even after hundreds of years, we have self identity(unlike others that insists being black is their most important possession/trait) we just keep moving forward and be better, there is no use, point or justification delving in your weakling ancestor’s failures when things happened by nature’s law, such is the way the world have always worked and would always work till the end of times, maybe it’s not them feeling superior to you but it is you who feel inferior to them?
My parents lived in Orania. I've been there several times. This news report is so slanted. I can tell you from first hand experience that the people in Orania are very devout Christians and any insinuation that black people are anything less-than is blasphemous. They simply want to preserve their culture and be left alone. You can live there if you prove that you are an Afrikaaner. I met a German man who lived there - he taught himself Afrikaans at age 50 and embraced the culture - he was reviewed and allowed to live there. It's incredible how they've turned semi-desert area that gets into the high 40s into a functional, clean town.

But sadly the black government has been raping SA for many years now, you can't blame this on Apartheid anymore. Look at all the corruption, look at all the riots, look at all the deaths and then besides that implementing a BBE system for black empowerment to keep racism alive.

Props to you bro💪 This is probably the best way to explain why our cultures don’t mix very well, without blaming either side or bringing up any form of discrimination or hate.

I'm coloured and I don't see what's wrong with white people choosing to live isolated. This is a free Country. Even they have freedom of choice. Respect their right to live away from blacks. WELL DONE ...
I agree, but they have no official racial policy in Orania. Maybe they are all secretly racist, but I am white and both my parents are Afrikaans but would not be eligible to live in Orania because I'm not an Afrikaner Calvanist. Freedom of association is very important because if nobody wants to associate with a person or group, that person or group is clearly the problem. If the state forcing people to associate actually enables bad behavior because they are preventing the social consequences of people's actions.

Some time ago my wife and I visited Orania to discuss strawbale house construction with an architect resident there. Although we speak English we were welcomed with open arms and found it to be, safe, crime free and above all meticulously maintained and litter free. The people we spoke to just got on with what they were doing and were hard working and enterprising. If I raised the subject of politics, the conversation was tactfully steered away from the subject. White people are now the victims of a new apartheid in SA. It is called Black Economic Empowerment and Transformation and targets whites. Curiously, it has resulted in poor economic growth and soaring unemployment among black people- in short the exact opposite of what it is intended to achieve. Good on the people of Orania.
You're lying and you're an undercover racist. Have shame
Nope. It was a CODESSA negotiated settlements. And you can't say it targets whites because white own the economy of South Africa, in all forms you can think of. And this is because they were empowered. As a black person I'm not benefitting from all those things, majority we get our way through our experience and credentials. What you are talking about is only those who carry membership cards of the ruling party. The ruling party which is in place to protect capital interest. First negotiations for this country was between Anc elites and business elites. They made deals before the main negotiations. But we shouldn't call out black economic empowerment, which was largely driven by capital, as if there wasn't English Empowerment and later followed by Afrikaner Empowerment when they took one. Thinking was right everybody deserved to be empowered. English oppressed both blacks and Afrikaners put them in concentration camps. Later Afrikaner oppressed the blacks. After oppression every society comes our poor, disempowered and uneducated. It's a pity the BEE one is a scam. Made a few billionaires, somehow close to Anc and left out everybody else.
No that's not the problem; Its South Africa's confusing trade policy that I would think the post-apartheid government didn't touch and its hard to Invest in South Africa because of opaque regulations, not poor infrastructure. I wouldn't be surprised if the top brass of the govt. are getting filthy rich off Investing regulation free.
Yea they want your business but don't want certain people living there too!
So you guys were accepted because you were white? Because I thought you had to be Afrikaner to be accepted there😂real racist of them but nothing new..BEE doesn't only target white people it targets the minority. In reality Coloureds and Indians aren't really considered Black in this country.

I heard someone describe this as ''sunset segregation", essentially that during the day people may mix but at the end of it return to their separate communities.
It's no coincidence this happens.
