Racial lunacy: ANC’s racist job-rights laws

The ANC-regime's draconian racial restrictions on white and coloured peoples’ basic constitutional rights to work, destroys the international myth of a 'non-racial' South Africa… 

‘ The ANC uses apartheid-era racial qualifications …’

To enforce their race-based job-restriction laws, the ANC-regime will have to start using nazi-style racial-purity tests to determine the ‘black African’ race of the job-applicants: especially if they are darker-skinned people who are classified as ‘coloureds’  on their identity documents…. will the old ‘pencil-test’ return?

8 March 2012
Solidarity trade union leaked details of the following document: "Confidential Memo from WCape official to national commissioner" asking approval to “deviate from the correctional services' racial-hiring restrictions”. This memo  shows that in practice, even the best-qualified Whites and Coloured officials in the Western Cape province are routinely denied appointments of promotions solely on the basis of their race. The highly-qualified applicant was short-listed among three candidates – yet the commissioner demanded that the job be ‘ readvertised to target equity (black African) candidates’

anc regime black Africans racial purity job rights Correctional Services March42012 The Department of Correctional Services (DCS) has a policy of (ultimately) limiting the number of "Coloureds and White" employees --  at all levels of their employ in the Western Cape to match the demographic countrywide percentage that the White and Coloured population: in the whole of the South African population.  However, the majority of coloureds have traditionally always lived in the Western and Northern Cape provinces. And whites are now migrating in large numbers to the Democratic-Alliance-run Western Cape from the other provinces because of the massive job-restrictions barring them from the labour-market in the ANC-ruled provinces.

SA’s first nation, the Khoi-Sanpeoples, were degraded by the ANC-regime to the generic nomer of ‘Coloureds”…

The nomer ‘coloured’ also includes the one minority in South Africa which has the only ‘first-nation’ rights -- namely the Khoi San peoples. All the other peoples in SA arrived tens of thousands of years after the Khoi-San peoples populated the entire region.

At the moment, the white population in the Western Cape also is very rapidly growing in numbers because many whites are migrating away from all the northern provinces -- where the possibility of their obtaining any kind of employment under this draconian black-economic empowerment law, is practically nil.

This racially-restrictive hiring law forms part of the ANC's so-called 'historic African nationalist commitments" -  which date from the early 1960s (if not before) – and now being taken to their logical, and absurd, extreme.

The top-qualified Mr P J Davids’ application as Assistant Director of Human Resources Administration at the DCS
The Department of Correctional Services’ application of this policy is currently the subject of a number of legal challenges. In one case the Solidarity trade union has taken the department to the Labour Court to challenge its refusal to approve the appointment of Mr. P.J. Davids as Assistant Director of Human Resources Administration.  The document below contains the motivation by the DCS' Regional Head Corporate Services in the Western Cape requesting approval for a deviation from the Department's "Employment Equity Plan" (see here) so that Mr Davids could be appointed; and the reply from National Head Office.

We're publishing this document for two reasons. For South Africa readers it provides a useful insight into the causes of state dysfunctionality in the country. 


For British and American readers it is a useful corrective to the strangely enduring myth of the ‘non-racial' character of the ruling troika: the African National Congress party, the SA Communist Party and the Cosatu trade-union movement .

Unfortunately, the likelihood that foreign newspapers - such as the Guardian and the New York Times - will actually report on this issue is vanishingly close to zero.

The contents of the entire leaked memorandum are published below the picture. The recommendation was not to hire Mr Davids – but instead ‘Re-advertisement is recommended and target equity [black African] candidates.’

8. Comments/Recommendations
National Commissioner's Instructions 5.4.2.2 requires that three candidates must be shortlisted and in the event that this is not complied with reasons must be furnished in line with recommendation made and forwarded to the Region on 6th October 2010 it is recommended that the region re-shortlist because there is a sufficient pool of candidates who possess Human Resource Management Public Administration, etc which are relevant qualifications to select from.
Headhunting of a candidate that speaks to the EE Plan could be considered as an alternative prior to re-advertising to save costs. Preferably headhunted candidates should come from the Western Cape to minimize transfer requests later, which tend to impact negatively on the EE Plan.
