Today is Human Rights Day in South Africa, its a public holiday marking the anniversary of one of the darkest days in South African history - the Sharpeville Massacre. This post by Someamongus should be a compulsory read for most Saffas - especially seeing as I can almost guarantee that 99% of people reading this post were not even born 46 years ago!

Why exactly eezit that all the winners of the SA Blog Awards were white? Did Oscar winning Crash not make enough of an impact on you to vote for the a black man/woman? The ethnicity and racial makeup of the SA blogging community do not accurately represent the demographics of the South African nation. Whats going on?!?
Heres the thing, blogging wasn’t around before 1994 so technically discrimination could not have occurred. Why then are there no black bloggers at the awards, and why did I not win an award, is it because I is black?
Check out the photos of the Joburg jol here, and the Cape Town cavort here!
One of my favourite finds from the SA Blog Awards is definitely Inky Goblin. Its probably only for you saffas out there given that its a political satire on South Africa. Do yourself a favour and watch the InkyGoblin TV video clips, if you don’t capsize after watching “Fattima” talking about “traditional phsycologists” etc. then you need to leave the country NOW!
Check out their sister site my bru, its about Durban, and I’m tuning you lahnees its Mckoi!
