[ICYMI] MIA LINDEQUE: When will Afrikaners cut ties with Steve Hofmeyr?
I remember being a young girl watching the television drama series Agter Elke Man - dancing around the house to the theme song with my sister while my mother was busy cooking supper.
Afrikaans-speaking people have had an ongoing love-hate relationship with Hofmeyr, but he lost the plot more than ten years ago when he started calling himself an activist for the group. The Nelson Mandela Foundation had to turn to the court to ask for the old flag be banned from public display - while MultiChoice has just cut ties with the Afrikaans singer - taking a stance not to air his content or material that features him. Hofmeyr has positioned himself as a self-proclaimed Afrikaner activist, but to many white South Africans who are determined to build a non-racial and equal society, he has only been a thorn in their sides.
