Good point, but could it not also be argued that as an entire generation has now grown up without apartheid, shouldn't the culture developed under apartheid be less pronounced amongst the younger generation? Just like people on here often blame Polish people for "being that way" because of Communism, while no-one under 25 can really understand what life under Communism was like.
Fair question.
When i was in SA years after apartheid, I saw a complete disproportionate distribution of wealth between blacks and whites.
I met some young black SAfricans who were well educated and got on with it.
When you look at the statistics it is shocking how much murder, rape and other crimes but it does go hand in hand with poverty.
Comparing SA's fall of Apartheid and Poland's fall of communism is not an accurate similarity.
There are huge differences and ongoing struggles in SA that eclipse what is happening in Poland today.
Also the remanence of communism is still very visible in Poland.
White kids are the most privileged in SA and all live in gated accommodation with their families.
It is certainly not true that all white kids live in gated communities.
But gated communities are popular and not very many black people live in them, truth be told.
I should mention that I loved South Africa, I wanted to move there and it was only luck that I ended up in Poland instead.
