DA reports Lwazi Lushaba to Human Rights Commission over Hitler comments
9 April 2021
The DA will lodge a complaint against UCT lecturer, Lwazi Lushaba, with the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) following his racist comments regarding Adolf Hitler on a pre-recorded lecture.
Reports confirm that Lushaba made the following comments: “Hitler committed no crime. All Hitler did was to do to white people what white people had normally reserved for black people.”
The Holocaust was unequivocally a crime against humanity orchestrated by Hitler. The DA therefore strongly condemns the comments made by Lushaba.
His comments were not only racist, offensives and vile, but also completely insensitive to the victims and survivors of the Holocaust and the Jewish community as a whole.
