Hore set for hefty ban

Hore set for hefty ban

New Zealand hooker Andrew Hore has been cited for an off-the-ball incident which subsequently hospitalised Wales lock Bradley Davies.

Hore hit Davies off the ball during the initial stages of last Saturday’s Test in Cardiff. The incident was missed by matchday officials, but Hore has now been cited and looks likely to receive a lengthy suspension.

The time and date of the hearing, before the IRB’s appointed independent judicial officer, have yet to be fixed.

All Blacks coach Steve Hansen expects the hooker to be sidelined for some time. Hansen did not say as much, but has already called for a replacement ahead of the coming Test against England.

Dane Coles is expected to start at Twickenham.

    This got me thinking. Why would anyone say Cape Town is racist if it wasn’t? What would be the point of that? Surely, it is safe to assume that if someone said it, that was what they felt. And how could any single white Capetonian get all high and mighty and declare it ain’t so? How the hell would they know? Now I am not claiming that it is or isn’t true. I just think that the decent thing to do would be to shut up and listen, take notice and care deeply that a black person would feel that. Then, I would try my hardest not to try and convince the world on twitter that it wasn’t true, but to understand, care and change things. It is our problem, whether it is a perception or an action. And shouting about it being not true doesn’t make it so. I am deeply afraid that the defensive bleating might end up proving the opposite; since that’s what it sounds like. It sounds racist to me.

    When Lindiwe Suttle tweeted about her experience of racism in Cape Town, several other non-white South Africans voiced additional experiences of racism in the old city. These voices soon joined forces in the controversial and contested Twitter hashtag, #CapeTownIsRacist. Helen Zille, in a rash and petty tweet, called the claim “a baseless assertion” and “complete nonsense”. Zille’s comments were met with anger from several tweeters, including Johannesburg-based singer Simphiwe Dana, who responded: “It is embarrassing that as a leader you would deny people their experiences. Try live in a black skin for once. You have the power to change things. Use it!” And in poor taste and lacking insight, something which she appears to have had in short supply in recent months, Zille accused Dana of being a “professional black”. Originally coined by Jacob Dlamini in a critique of Jimmy Manyi, the term is meant to refer to someone who “trades on his [or her] skin colour”. In a display of Zille’s notoriously thoughtless cattiness, the Premier almost shut down the possibility of reasoned and open debate about race-related experiences of non-whites.

    This kind of blind “reactionism” and defensiveness displayed by the Premier also proliferates in less esteemed company. It happens among white peers, as well as online public spaces. When the Mail&Guardian’s Verashni Pillay last week described her experience of racism in Cape Town, her column was met with hostility, not on the merits of her writing or arguments, but instead on the credibility of her claims that she experienced racism. One commentator called on Pillay to cite specific cases of racism she experienced: “I challenge you to list and describe the ‘racist incidents’ which made you ‘flee’ Cape Town. Easy to make allegations, not so easy to back up. Methinks you’re full of sh*t.” Similarly, Zille has begun her own search for empirical evidence of racism in Cape Town, encouraging her followers to tweet their experiences of racism at Cape Town businesses as and when they happen.

    While it may be admirable, this kind of pragmatism and positivism in the face of complaints of racism in Cape Town (or anywhere in South Africa) ignores the complexity and nuances of racism. Overt and explicit racism, the likes of which includes denying racial groups access to services or the acts of hate crimes and hate speech, may be dealt with pragmatically. Implicit racism, however, is a much more complex beast to conquer, and its prevalence and existence is often denied by many white South Africans.

  • 14207.Heavens Game: Reply to this comment

    I believe that Zille’s blindness – and that of many white South Africans – to implicit racism is a symptom of her “whiteness”.

    “Whiteness”, just like race, is a socially constructed element of identity, and is in no way an inherited or genetic trait. But being a social construct does not make it any less real. ”Whiteness”, as identified in critical whiteness studies, refers to the invisibility of “white” as a racial category – race only applies to the non-white. The race of white people often goes unnamed, whereas members of other races are frequently identified by their perceived race. Instead, white people and their experiences are centred as the human norm. This is partly exemplified by Zille’s initial denial of the claim that “Cape Town is racist”. A better example would be the comments on Jacob Phamodi’s column in Daily Maverick , wherein he explores his experiences of racism as an “articulate black”:

    “Another poor bloody victim.”

    “Jacob, after reading your article three times, I have come to the conclusion that the only one ‘preoccupied with your blackness’ is you. The world you describe is not one that I recognise, and your article ends up being nothing more than an anti-white rant.”

    The first commentator not only appears to deny Phamodi’s experiences of racism, he makes a throwaway comment frequently heard among white peers: that non-white people, specifically blacks, suffer from some kind of victim pathology. It alludes to the racist and privileged belief that, were we to acknowledge the validity of Phamodi’s claims of racism, Phamodi is just another black shackled by his victimhood; another black with a “chip on his shoulder”. Consequently, Phamodi must “just get over it”. A more insidious allusion of this comment, however, may be that black peoples’ experiences of racism are nothing more than projections of perpetual victimhood, and have no basis in “reality”. When a second commentator states, in an attempt to discredit Phamodi, that his description of racism “is not one that I recognise”, this blindness of “whiteness” comes to the fore. So, simply because this commentator does not share Phamodi’s experience of racism, it must therefore be irrefutably invalid?

  • 14209.Heavens Game: Reply to this comment

    The DA’s public obsession with denying white privilege (bizarre as that is in a post-apartheid state), and promoting a notion of colour-blindedness where opportunities are dished out based on “merit” without acknowledging that white South Africans literally walked over Black citizens to get a head start has been popular with white voters in the past – but the tiny percentage of township votes for the DA indicate that this message was not popular with Black South Africans at all.

    With the 2014 elections approaching, the DA faces a new conundrum – it has been in power in Cape Town for six years without making any strides in improving the lives of Black residents from both the townships and the ghettoes. It has frequently blamed its failure to deliver houses on allegedly uncontrollable influxes of Blacks from the Eastern Cape.

    But it also needs hundreds of thousands of new Black voters. Millions of rands in funding from undisclosed sources, shrewd advertising jingles and a receptive contingent of journalists – along with the ANC’s abject failure to deliver on its promises – gave the DA an increased share of the vote in the 2009 and 2011 elections.

    But if in 2014, the DA only increases its share of the “Black vote” by a tiny percentage, its dream of taking power will never be realised, since the refusal of Black people to vote for it then will signal that Black voters do not see the party as an alternative to the ANC.

    The DA’s chances in 2014 are further jeopardised by the fact that while the ANC is delivering poorly and slowly, it is not doing any better. The Blikkiesdorp (Tin Can Town) transit camp – now in its sixth year of existence with no sign of it being temporary as was promised – was dubbed a “concentration camp” by mainstream international newspapers during the 2010 World Cup. There is no obvious improvement in township life while there are obvious signs that Cape Town is a racist city – the segregated living areas, schools, workplaces, supermarkets, and public parks. No city administration in charge of such a vastly segregated geographical area can plausibly deny that racism exists in their city.

    @Angostura-14226:
    thanks for that. it must concern at least some people in america when considering that out of those 24 cases 15 have taken place in america. clearly there are problems on many levels and for many reasons in american society.

    anyway, this got me thinking and i started looking for a similar record or history, if it existed, of such massacres/killing sprees in south africa.

    sadly i have found more than makes one comfortable, and i would guess there’s probably more which i have not found:

    January 20, 2003: Cape Town was stunned when nine male escorts, including the owner of the Sizzlers *** massage parlour, had their throats slit before being shot.
    On Thursday 11 March, 2004 in the city’s High Court, waiter Adam Woest, 27, and taxi driver Trevor Theys, 44, were convicted of nine counts of premeditated murder.

    9 February 2002: Bulelani Vukwana was a South African spree killer who, after a quarrel with his girlfriend, shot to death 11 people and injured a further 6 in Mdantsane township, near East London, before committing suicide.

    3 April 2006 :A South African detective went on the rampage this week, killing eight people including four colleagues and an infant before being shot dead by police yesterday.
    Superintendent Chippa Mateane, 42, shot three women and a two-year-old boy on Monday night, then opened fire at Kagiso police station in Krugersdorp, a town west of Johannesburg.

    January 21, 1992: OHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA — A man with an assault rifle fatally shot his father, then rampaged through a quiet rural town, leaving a total of nine people dead and 19 wounded, police and witnesses said. A domestic dispute apparently set off the white gunman, who also torched his father’s farmhouse before launching his random shooting spree at a shopping mall in the southeastern town of Ladysmith. The Star newspaper of Johannesburg identified the gunman as 30-year-old Callie Delport, and he was described as having a history of mental illness by the South African Press Association. Police Minister Hernus Kriel said the shooting was not a political attack. He noted that the victims included whites, blacks and people of Asian descent.

    25 November 1931: Cornelius Johannes Petrus van Heerden, a young man of 22, shot 11 people in and around Bethlehem, before taking his own life. Five of his victims were mortally wounded and the other six were seriously injured. Among the dead was the highly respected Anglo Boer War veteran, Commandant Michael Prinsloo, who at the time of his death was planting trees for the Bethlehem Municipality. The Town Council adamantly refused to permit the murderer to be buried in the same cemetery as Prinsloo, so van Heerden’s parents obtained permission from the railway authorities to bury their son alongside the Bethlehem – Reitz railway track. As was the custom in those years, the murderer was buried in a grave which fronts west.

    6 May 1927: Stephanus Andries Johannes Swart (1890 – 6 May 1927) was a South African farmer and spree killer who killed at least 8 people and wounded 3 others in Charlestown, South Africa, before committing suicide.

But why don’t you move to Cape Town?”) and trying really hard to look more tanned (“Ah, yes, I can see you’re not from here. We get out more, you know, living in such a beautiful place.”).

    One thing that still puzzles me though: why do so many Capetonian guys wear pastel shorts and T-shirts that are two sizes too small for them?

All of them have been in CT 2-3 yrs and all live in the CBD\Camps Bay. They love Cape Town for the lifestyle but don’t feel welcome. They end up going the same bar week in and week out, as it is the only place where they feel comfortable and are not the only black face in the bar. CT city’s bars\clubs\restaurants are the least cosmopolitan of SA’s three biggest cities. Any young black professional if given the choice would choose JHB over CT

The only friends I ever made were people from other SA cities and towns, honestly the lonliest days of my life. Capetonians are arrogant and judgmental. I could never understand though how a community could be so different from the rest of South Africa.

    Interesting blog quote… Echoes here on Keo all the time…

    Dude, the fact that you assert that Cape Town’s streets are relatively safe displays either a mind-boggling ignorance or a racist exclusion of the Cape Flats as genuine parts of Cape Town. The streets here are frightening places for those who live in Lavender Hill, Manenburg, Hanover Park…. Part of the racism of white Capetonians is the very fact that they, as a group, exclude non-white Cape Town from their concept of Cape Town, just as you have.

    I must say though, I’m rather surprised that you’ve never heard Cape Town described as racist. It’s a cliche often bandied about. I’ve even interviewed CEOs that have told me they find it difficult to entice qualified black staff to CT because of the perception that the city is racist. Personally I think the view is flawed, which is the reason for my article. My personal opinion is that white Capetonians are just snobbish in general. I am by no means alone in this assessment. Why don’t you ask some of your non-Capetonian friends what they think and get back to me (assuming you have non-Capetonian friends).

    From City Press…

    three diners were grabbed by security guards just after finishing a leisurely dinner and led to an hour-long interrogation in a back room at the V&A Waterfront – all because a waiter had said he had seen “three short black people robbing the mall” the week before.

    Now nothing could be more generic than such a description and you have to wonder how these security guards had sufficient information to accost those three patrons.

    But this incident points to all the problems that are created by racial profiling, and it seems that Cape Town takes the lead in the practice of this most discriminatory of practices.

    While these two incidents involve force and a degree of violence, the most pervasive forms of racism that are linked to Cape Town are often well disguised, but still no less humiliating.

    Those unfamiliar with racial profiling probably imagine that it is used primarily as a tool to combat crime, but it is, in fact, used as a random tool
    of discrimination.

    Using racial profiling as a tool, someone can decide as you enter their shop whether you are more likely to buy something or whether you are more likely to steal something.

    A friend from Bekkersdal on Joburg’s West Rand, who took a job as a manager of a hotel in the Cape Town CBD, says that when she goes to the boutiques at the V&A Waterfront, she is often ignored by white staff.

    “I cannot understand why they think it’s okay to be so polite, even fawning, towards white customers and yet be so cold to me when I’ve come to spend the same money,” she says.

    She adds that even a simple visit to the supermarket can become a traumatic event as the staff seem to have one script for white customers, which emphasises warmth, and another for black customers, which involves being curt and even rude.

    Continued from the article…

    An American friend who settled in Cape Town after emigrating to South Africa says that when he goes out to night clubs or restaurants in the city, he is often surprised by the stealth used by those who want to bar blacks from entering.

    “Their favourite line is to say the place is full. But when I come, suddenly a place is available.

    “So they won’t ever directly say that they don’t want a black person as a patron, but they have this practice of claiming the place is full when it is not.”

    Such practices of racial discrimination are in bad taste and, given South Africa’s sordid history of racial discrimination and apartheid, you would expect that those who speak on behalf of Cape Town would spend more of their time rooting out these hateful practices rather than defending them.

    But it seems that their energies are solely focused on ganging up against those who dare express their anger and disappointment that racism is still alive and well at so many of the city’s establishments.

    Sounds just like the Keo Kaap Superiority we read day by day… :lol:

    I don’t have a problem when having to go down and work there – twice this year… Maybe its because the accent is “posher” or more “engels” than the Kapies and maybe its because I am too damn competent :wink:

    It could also be because I am white…

Keo.co.za has always promoted uncensored views, but has never tolerated racist or crass outbursts. Come on guys and girls. If you can't moderate yourselves or each other then I am going to be forced to regulate the posts and enforce a registration process for comments. The choice is yours.

Have your say
