A social media storm has erupted with allegations of racism at Durban’s oldest and most elite girls' private school, Durban Girls College

A “black is beautiful” group was prevented from holding meetings, unless in the presence of a senior teacher.They lamented the lack of a racism policy at the school and said the code of conduct “did not accommodate people of colour”.

“The school has zero tolerance for racist behaviour. The board takes these claims extremely seriously and they will be investigated thoroughly.” Executive head Marianne Bailey told TimesLIVE that in a letter to parents the school board said they have set up a team to investigate the allegations and engage with parents, pupils, teachers, and past pupils; would set up a series of conversation circles to stimulate discussion, which would be facilitated by the school's existing diversity and inclusivity committee.

Why do these intellectually and emotionally challenged woman go to this type of school in the first place. If for one second they think it is any different from other decades old institutions, anywhere, they are either morons or wanna be coconuts. Little shit stirrers.

Was it about the hair?

Nandi_Madida IN SA going forward we will tackle and deal with racist the way USA is dealing with it now! nomore!

What's the uproar about? Hasn't always been part of the liberals culture to always stress the point of mutual respect & civility in expression of one's passions &/opinions & often indeed express it as they hv reportedly hv done?

Ma-Afrika, please watch the YouTube video by Dr Robin Diangelo or read her book titled' White Fragility': Why White People don't want to discuss about RACISM.

It is fucking impossible not to be racist in SA, at the moment. It’s such a clusterfuck
