The storm started on Wednesday when Fish, who played as a defender in the national soccer team, was called out after he liked a tweet that claimed Springbok captain Siya Kolisi was a “BEE appointment” and a racist “just like [Mmusi] Maimane.” One user, who identified his race as coloured, said he was disappointed that Fish, who has seen inequality and racism everywhere, had this mindset.
This understand and please I know who I am and what I stand for...I don’t conform to this world and have seen more than most...that is why all lives matter....I came into this world seeing no color and never have so why must I now👊In another tweet, Fish suggested black lives will only matter when black people treat other black people correctly in SA.
