A recent education-related campaign is using the face of Hendrik Verwoerd to really drive home its message.
An advert for the Apartheid Museum, created by agency TBWA\Hunt Lascaris, won a gold Loerie award recently. Now that could be revoked.
My enduring memory of my grandfather is of a wonderfully cantankerous old man pulling up his knee-high socks and muttering obscenities. My grandfather wasn’t the architect of apartheid however.
Any statue or symbol of apartheid South Africa is cool, just not Verwoerd, says ANC spokesman Jackson Mthembu. He made the statement in response to the furore over the removal of the statue in the DA-controlled Midvaal municipality in Meyerton.
If you haven’t heard yet, government spokesman, Jimmy Manyi said recently that he thinks that there is an oversupply of coloured folk in the Western Cape, and that perhaps it is best if they’d shift around a bit. He made the remarks on kykNET last year when he said: “So this over-concentration of coloureds in the Western Cape is not working for them.”
