Thousands To March In Johannesburg Against Xenophobia by raphok1(m): 2:57pm On Apr 23, 2015 |
People have begun gathering at the Peter Roos Park in Park Town, Johannesburg, in preparation for a march to the Mary Fitzgerald Square, against the scourge of xenophobia which has plagued the country. More than 30 000 people are expected to be part of the march. The xenophobic attacks began in townships around Durban about three weeks ago and spread to Gauteng. At least seven people have been killed and thousands displaced. Bus loads of people from all across the province are gathering in their numbers, as they prepare to march through the streets of Johannesburg in a spirit of unity and to show solidarity with foreign nationals. Gauteng Premier David Makhura along with members of the provincial legislature are expected to lead the march The march has been organised by representatives from social justice networks, trade unions and non governmental organisations. Gauteng Premier David Makhura along with members of the provincial legislature are expected to lead the march. Crowds of people who have gathered are all in a jovial mood singing and dancing across the park in anticipation of the commencement of the march. A large contingent of police officers is out in full force. http://www.punchng.com/news/thousands-to-march-in-johannesburg-against-xenophobia/ |

They should've done this a long time ago. Nevertheless, no amount of marching will ever bring back the dead or erase the hatred most Africans now have towards them. I pray for peace to reign. |
