Zille unapologetic about blackprivilege tirade
Cape Town - A war of words has been brewing on Twitter, with outgoing Western Cape Premier Helen Zille once again at the centre of the social media storm. The latest online controversy featuring the former DA leader comes just a week after it was announced that the party had retained the Western Cape in the hotly contested general elections.
Well you clearly don't understand black privilege. It is being able to loot a country and steal hundreds of billions and get re-elected. If ppl want permanent poverty for the masses they are going about it the right way. #BlackPrivilege “Dear @helenzille white privilege is universal and comes with the premium the world places on whiteness plus accumulated historical advantages. To equate it with black privilege is myopic. To brand blacks as looters and political pretenders is wrong. Please withdraw and apologise,” Madonsela wrote.“Dear @ThuliMadonsela The era to which you refer has ended. 2day “whiteness” is a swear-word used to stigmatise and marginalise.
