Racial Discrimination against whites in South Africa
Ernst Roets, student leader, said: “People are being driven to the point where they say well, we have no option left. We can’t get a After years of black Africans fighting racism in South Africa, now white students there are claiming that the government is discriminating against them. And now, they’ve decided to protest in an unusual way.
Students in Pretoria blacken their faces to protest what they see as the lower status of whites in modern South Africa. The group of eleven then registered as Africans with the South African department of labour said that it gives them a better chance of gaining employment.
job in South Africa. We are being discriminated against. We have to leave the country and see whether we can make a living for ourselves somewhere outside.”
The students have appealed to everyone born in the South Africa to register for employment as African, rather than other options viz. white, coloured or Indian.
Roets further added:”Being an African just gives you so much more privileges, and it has come to a point where if you are not an African, then you are treated as a second class citizen.”
South Africa experienced 46 years of white rule during the apartheid era. The country’s first multi-racial elections took place in 1994.

My opinion about Discrimination.
My opinion is that Discrimination is an action that persons always use to exclude and isolate a person that is knew or don't have experience in something that other people practice a lot. Discriminating others bring us many problems not only with the persons around us but also with ourselves, we are going to feel very bad and have bad thoughts that usually we don't have to think, hurt others feelings and ours too, but the most important thing is that we considerate how our friends, classmates and also other persons that we don't know are going to feel and also how can they react. One day a person could feel sad and don't do anything but other can hurt, or also accuse us with an adult that can scold us or resolve the problem between us and he/she. That's why when we are going to discriminate someone because her/his physical, religious, gender etc ask yourselve:
I would like to be discriminate by other people, like I am doing with he/her?
Why do we discriminate others?

Discrimination definition
Discrimination
My definition:
Discrimination is the way other people exclude and isolate a person that is new or is timid in something, that others have experience and practice a lot. The person that is been discriminate feel with fear and can be afraid of the things could happen to him/her and try to be apart of others because of the things people said, so he/she keep quiet and don't say anything. The person who discriminate try to make him/her feel bad because he/she do not feel ok with itself and have a low selfstime.
