I don't know who is responsible for that video and the subtitles, but my question remains.  

 

When he took power, did he kill the white people?  As far as I can tell, there was no bloodbath, there was no confiscation of property, and he even included whites in the government.    And in fact, correct me if I am wrong, but in South Africa today, the white people still own all the property they owned when Mandela took power.  

 

The fact is, for many years, South Africa was run by white supremacists who oppressed the black majority.   Whites were 10% of the country and blacks were 90% of the country, and yet the whites held all the money and power and they jailed or killed any black people who stood against them.   And yet when the black majority finally took power, they allowed the white people to remain, to keep their  property, and even invited them into the government. 

 

Here is a link to the ANC anthem, with an English translation of the lyrics:

God bless Africa

Let its (Africa’s) horn be raised,

 

Listen also to our prayers,

Lord bless us, we are the family of it (Africa).

 

Lord bless our nation,

Stop wars and sufferings,

Save it, save our nation,

The nation of South Africa — South Africa.

 

From the blue of our heavens,

From the depths of our seas,

Over our everlasting mountains,

Where the cliffs give answer,

 

Sounds the call to come together,

And united we shall stand,

Let us live and strive for freedom

In South Africa our land.

 

That ^^ was the official anthem of the ANC during the Apartheid era.
