This article explores the historical irony in post-apartheid South Africa. While apartheid was declared a crime against humanity by the United Nations in 1966 for its systematic racial oppression (4), modern South Africa now has 142 laws where race is a determining factor in access to opportunities, resources, and rights (6). The controversial chant “Kill the Boer, Kill the Farmer”, originally a liberation song, is now sung at political rallies and was declared not hate speech by the Constitutional Court in 2025, despite widespread criticism and concern over its inflammatory nature (3). International figures like Pres Donald Trump and Elon Musk have condemned the chant, citing it as incitement to violence against white South Africans (1). Farm attacks are frequent and very brutal: 49 farm murders occurred in 2023, averaging nearly one per week (12). The murder rate for farmers is four times higher than for police officers, according to research by the Institute for Security Studies (11). Despite this, the South African government has no dedicated unit for farm security, and often downplays these crimes as “ordinary offences” (12). Civil groups like AfriForum and TLU SA have created their own protection networks in response. The article ends with a piercing question: Why was one form of racial oppression declared a crime against humanity, while the violence and racial discrimination against today’s white minority—especially farmers—are ignored?
