ANC members from previously disadvantaged Indian and coloured minorities are sidelined by the party
ANC deputy secretary-general Jessie Duarte in a recent speech in Soweto accused the party of being “tribalistic and racist” for “marginalising its members who are not black Africans”.
Duarte spoke within the context of the “coloured community” which, she says, is “kept out of the ANC at all costs and one or two are put in as tokens”. There is also a perception among many black African ANC members that South African Indians and coloureds are advantaged and in the same category as whites.
