They're rising up in Azania / south afrika after cops there murdered a 16-year-old but the left on this website still posts pictures of Nelson Mandela in front of the hammer & sickle as if he liberated anybody but the local nonwhite bourgeoisie.
The ANC sabotaged & coopted all alternative liberation movements against apartheid in Azania / south afrika, particularly those currents that rose out of the Pan-Africanist, socialist, & Black Consciousness movements. Their white allies around the world shut out other groups.
& when there was a sustained effort to radicalize the ANC from within, the marginalization of Winnie Mandela, the assassination of Chris Hani, & other events either engineered or welcomed by Nelson Mandela's liberal wing of the party rendered those efforts ineffective.
