In the video, the boys repeatedly use deeply offensive slurs, including the ‘k’ and ‘n’ words, sparking outrage and highlighting the persistence of racial prejudice in the country.
The clip, which has quickly gone viral, has drawn widespread condemnation from viewers who are horrified by the open display of racism. Many South Africans have taken to social media to express their anger and disappointment, emphasising that such behaviour has no place in a democratic and diverse society.

The incident is a stark reminder of the painful legacy of apartheid—a system that institutionalised racial segregation and discrimination against the black majority in South Africa for decades. Since the fall of apartheid in 1994, the country has made significant strides towards reconciliation and unity, striving to build a society based on equality, justice, and mutual respect.

However, episodes like this show that racism remains a deeply ingrained issue that still needs to be actively addressed.
To experience such blatant racism today, nearly three decades after the end of apartheid, is a painful indicator that the journey towards true equality and understanding is far from over.
While South Africa has come a long way in promoting racial harmony, incidents like these reveal the urgent need for continued efforts in education, awareness, and dialogue to combat prejudice in all its forms.
Some viewers said they had recognised one of the individuals in the video and outed his name and school, which caused certain people to phone into the boys school, demanding for expulsion.
‘I sent an email to the school, plus I phoned them,’ one comment said.
Others mentioned that his chances of getting into university are all but gone. ‘He can kiss university goodbye.’
This video serves as a reminder that every citizen has a role to play in promoting a culture of tolerance, acceptance, and unity.
