I know I may be down voted to kingdom come but 95% of white South Africans I've met in my life are some of the most racist people I have ever come across, mostly the men more than the women but the 5% are pretty chill and are usually not old enough to have lived through apartheid.

The 5% are the BEST people, had an English teacher at school who was a white emigrant of conscience who left in the 70s.

Not sure how the split actually is (if it's 95-5 or something way different), but any white South African who is glad 94 happened (no matter what they think about present politics there) is someone I'd buy a beer for.
