DA submits hate speech complaint against Malema and EFF in Equality Court
16 September 2019
On 14 September 2019, the President and Commander in Chief of the EFF, Julius Malema, posted a carousel advertisement of quotes from the late Robert Mugabe, which was supported by an EFF logo. The DA regards the publication and distribution of this carousel advertisement as condoning, advocating and distributing hate speech and violence against white South Africans. Among his quotes were the following:
“What we hate is not the colour of their skin but the evil that emanates from them”.
“Our party must continue to strike fear in the heart of the white man, our real enemy”.
“The only white man you can trust is a dead white man”.
