This is one of the few movies of Denzel Washington that everyone has to watch at least once like Training Day, Glory, Hurricane, Man on fire & Fences. Powerful movies
Although I'd rather have had far more of Denzel Washington as Steve Biko than the other characters as he was by far the most interesting. Great movie though.
My family is originally from Soweto. The aftermath of the uprising was so terrible with police patrolling the streets with tanks and bulldozers sometimes shooting anybody on sight. It was so bad my grandparents sent my mom and her siblings to live with our extended family in the Free State and finish their education. To this day my mom cannot watch this scene without breaking into tears. We truly have come a long way as a country. And we really still have a long way to go
All this because they didn't want to learn the language of their oppressors in their schools. They were English speaking Africans, they didn't feel the need to learn Afrikaans. as a young black man living in England it breaks my heart to see others so similar to me did not have the rights I have enjoyed in their own country. the right to talk and express themselves in my native language
@@adonaiyah2196 English was not their home language. They felt that English was a better language to be taught in because it was more widely used. The British Empire wasn't exactly kind to black South Africans, either.

@@unclescipio3136 true. The Bantu education system was implemented to help the black people to evolve and improve their language. The black people didn't develop their language. So the government made English as the teaching language. A lot of black people struggled speaking English. So the government made Afrikaans as the teaching language, because most of the black people spoke/understood Afrikaans. To this day, there is a big group in the South African that speaks a form of Afrikaans, known as Tsotsi Taal.
At the time the SAP recruiters would actually be outside the school when the graduating class received their results. A lot of young constables were fresh out of high school and just out of basic training. The country had a siege mentality - police officers were assisting Rhodesia in their war, and the Red Danger was everywhere. All you needed was one rookie officer to panic, and fire a shot, and the rest was history. The pathologist who performed the autopsies fled the country after refusing to revise his findings that almost all of the victims where shot in the back. Sadly - the police are still very trigger happy. Just look at the Marikana Massacre.
As a Zimbabwean, this was filmed in Zimbabwe during the late '80s due to the turbulance South Africa was going through at that time. We are all honoured that our beautiful countryside was featured. Great film and great cast.
@Polnisch_StalkerPL Thank you! That means so much to us as Zimbabweans. We may have an evil government but we have some of the most beautiful natural beauty/national parks, amazing wildlife and kind, generous people. We have a lot to be proud of. Positive change is coming soon
@usmetakinci1266 No. I mean Zimbabwe. Rhodesia was great and I'm proud of the good we achieved but it's in the past. We should look to creating the Zimbabwe we want to see. A Zimbabwe built on Kindness, Compassion, Unity and Respect for all that benefits all living beings. I am proud of this country's amazing wildlife, stunning natural beauty and kind, generous people. You were not born here. You never lived here. Respectfully, Rhodesians have no time for Americans or any other people who twist the history of our country to suit their own ends.
The shooting of this movie was done in Zimbabwe,Lobengula township.I was at primary school at the time .Based on true events that occurred in South Africa.
Well technically this started because the schools wanted to teach a unform language instead of a bunch of local dialects. I dunno if that's tyranny but if they didn't wanna go to the white man school no one forced them
@@kylegoodreau2170 I have no idea what you’re talking about. What has taken place that is more tyrannical than the killing of hundreds of children protesting, like in this clip?
I noticed that reference too. It's so sad to think Hector was only 12 when his life ended. And Mbuyisa Makhubu, the one carrying him, was forced to flee the country after being continually harassed by aparthied officials. Then he went missing and no-one ever heard from him. His mother passed away never knowing what happened to her son. Such a sad story...
Interesting. I knew it was in Zimbabwe but thought the place looked like Chitungwiza. I heard some scenes were shot in Chitungwiza. Years ago my friend told me her mum and some people in the neighbourhoods were invited to participate in the scenes with large gatherings and they did.

My dad would show this movie along with Shaka Zulu...the one with Henry Cele.....i actually learned the national anthem as well. . It breaks my heart now seeing the younger African American kids and the south African younger generation argue over Tyla...... there was a time we stood together to fight for black liberation. May we always remember the struggle for black freedom across the diaspora. Amandla Awethu....❤

@curzethemall Mate, I can only think that you are someone in deep pain who is suffering in life. Sending you healing, prayers, best wishes, blessings, greetings and kind thoughts from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼. I am sorry you are going through such a hard time. However, pulling down others will only make your life worse. Your words and actions towards others will always return straight back to you. There are kind people who love you who are willing to help you if you let them. Don't go down this path. Be Kind, Compassionate and Respectful to others instead and people will be kind and respectful to you in return. If you live a life being kind, compassionate and respectful to others, you will live a joyful, successful and fulfilled life.
The best part is, the ANC Government still kept the law of Afrikaans in their schools. But most of you don't come from South Africa or don't live here.
It starts with dehumanizing a group, once a person is no longer a person but a target and a "threat" it becomes easier with each murder. It's digesting and horrible but it's the truth of how humans can commit an atrocity, knowing it's a terrible crime, but justify it. In this case these cowards were scared of the Status Que and their race based power structure changing so it was easy to become more extreme in there actions and justify committing criminal acts, it's lashing out and brutal to try and place fear in the majority Africans from attempting even non-violent civil action. The really horrible truth is it can happen anywhere, we see it with police shooting unarmed men running away or kids with BB guns 3.5 seconds before exiting their squad cars, once a man has decided a threat to his power and comfort has a face or a skin tone, he almost feels good when he pulls the trigger, that he's the hero even when the evidence doesn't match his decision that lead to a fatality. Empathy takes work, fear is lazy and easy.

They didn't show it in the movie, but in reality this happened after they butchered some police dogs, then the cops opened fire. I personally don't think dogs lives are more valuable than human, but at least in America if you kill a police dog the cops will shoot you here too. Not reasonable imo

For the vast majority of South Africans, yes it has. The police doesn't open fire onto children simply because of the color of their skin, like in this clip. Has all violence disappeared? No, which is a shame. Is the government using violence to suppress people simply because of the color of their skin? Also no, which is a very good thing.

Our people don't know what they talk sometimes they still vote for DA IMAGINE after do many death's in our family it breaks my heart they must react in peace 🌳🌳🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷💐💐💐💐💐⚘️⚘️⚘️🌹🌹🌹🥀🥀🥀🌺🌺🌺🍁🍁🍁🍁🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴🌿🌿🌾🌾🌵🌴🌳🌳🍂🍃
do you know why Black peole r voting for DA ?❤❤
@mxolisimdoda-do1om First and foremost I spoke on behalf of someone, reality check ✔️ more is being used for foreign people and country's government need SA help for reconstruction of war more is spent on Cape Town than any other place that answered your question
The DA literally traces its roots to the progressive freedom front, an ANTI apartheid group. They are in no way related to the national party despite what the ANC/EFF may be telling you
It so sad how we have moved on and forgot all this sad scenes an old man chasing a young lad with a live ammunition. The called freedom is not really working out for us, the wealth of the country is in the wrong hands. God bless Africa.
That's bad you a kid poor little kid
😢
There were officers, Like Stander, who quit after the Soweto Massacre.
South African citizens have been through a lot yet there are ppl from our neighborhood countries that hate us. They tell us our government is spoiling us and we are lazy. We are hated for harvesting what we fought for.... What do u say when our brothers blood was shed?🤷🏽♀️
What are you harvesting? You massacred all the white farmers who could actually grow crops.
@SindizwaIsaac Well, it’s clearly apparent now that your current government is an absolute appalling shambles, and that you don’t seem to give a damn about holding it accountable and making it run your country in a competent manner, in good faith.
You fought to loot the work of others?
The very fact that u tend to forget is do you know how many south Africans were hosted on those countries u said against? Do you know who supported moraly n financially ur freedom fighters do you know boers even attacked other nations simply for supporting ur course? Unless ur were young but most of African nations sacrifices a lot on supporting u in so many ways you were not allone .
They have a point though. The ANC is creating a welfare state so that the population becomes reliant on them and keeps voting for them
Officer : Looks like you need some of that old discipline, yar?

THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS FOR THE WICKED. ISAIAH 14:21. ISAIAH 48:22.
No way!
Mugabe and Malema have much to fear then
And yet Lord Jesus forgave the wicked.
@@Justin-pe9cl YOU MEAN THE WHITE JESUS WILL FORGIVE THE WICKED DOOMED SOULS? CAN SATAN FORGIVE A DEMON? CAN JESUS FELLOWSHIP WITH SATAN? CAN ESAU BE FORGIVEN? ROMANS 9:13. MALACHI 1:4.

This is a difficult scene to watch, and what’s even worse is everything else that happened at that time.
😢😢😢sarafina the south African movie done in south Africa by south Africans like MBONGENI NGEMA ,LELETI KHUMALO,,,, ETC😮😮😮😮😮
Damn! Which player got that 700 killstreak!?
You guys have got to be ashamed of yourself, most of all killing an innocent 13 year old child
Who is "you guys?"
I want to know who “you guys” is as well.

Yes, they're the ones lecturing China and Cuba about human rights.

Top movie
Good movie
There is one thing most of the history books and movies about the Soweto uprising gets wrong. Most of the SAP officers who were deployed there were also the same age as most of the rioters.
Iyandidika lento , heartless monsters 😢
Watched this movie in 2011 on Encore.
Never forget, never forgive, vote EFF
And just look at how peaceful and safe South Africa has become today.
For the vast majority of South Africans, yes it has. The police doesn't open fire onto children simply because of the color of their skin, like in this clip. Has all violence disappeared? No, which is a shame. Is the government using violence to suppress people simply because of the color of their skin? Also no, which is a very good thing.

Why am I hearing the Resident Evil 5 Menu opening? 😢
I took a guess when I saw this scene that it might took place in South Africa, and I was correct.
Africans should not forgive and forget..
If you cannot forgive, then you end up as part of the problem again. Unity iss what all Africans, regardless of colour or ethnicity must strive for.
Yes, well maybe they 're too stupid for that.
so full of hate you make a fool of yourself, shut up and move on, embrace you brothers and sisters because we are all human
@prdocumentaries7553 Absolutely. I agree. People have to stop the cycle of hate. It is foolish. Forgiveness, Compassion, Kindness, Love, Tolerance, Unity and Respect for one another, our planet and all living beings are the foundation to our whole existence. That is the only way to heal, to move forward and evolve as a civilization into higher unity consciousness. We are all ONE human family. It's time we put aside our differences and united. 👏🏻💯🙌🏻🤍💛😇😇🌍🌎🌏
@@Lion_Heart_Zimbabwe God bless you. I'm glad you agree. I wish the world would think like this. I guarantee that the world would be much peaceful if it was. 👍
afrikaans is a beautiful language
Is it a sister language to dutch
Americans will act so sad about this but will fully ignore the genocide in Gaza Strip.
Ive never seen this movie , i saw Sarafina with whoopi goldberg, but this one looks way more accurate.
Being south african, it still is crazy to think this actually happened, people are equal , theres no superior race
Very sad
Americans: happy ❤❤😂😂😂
This is so sad and if this was the British that did it even more sad
It's sad no matter who did it.
It wasn’t the British they were white South Africans with European decent
The boers did apartheid. South Africans of British descent weren’t even allowed in the national party.
It happened at kent state as well soldiers firing into kids
Not on this scale not even close
Yet americans too are capable of atrocities my lai especially!
Human Nature!!!
Yet more Black Sud Afrikans have died under ANC rule then during the whole Apartheid era.
@@BarryNelson-w2w as it always does in any African country ever.
RIP the Martyrs!
Not surprising that apartheid government lost in the end... all brutal regimes ends the same way
The only good thing in this is that the protesters stopped to help injured protesters escape
The hell
that's one reaction to South Africa's past
Movie name ?
Nigerian claimed to help south African. Where were thy here
It’s not a claim. It’s a fact.
Nigerians played no part in liberating South Africa. They came here to sell drugs. And that is the truth. 🤣🇿🇦
Lol this is why Africans are at the bottom, you see a video of europeans killing your people and u choose to attack the Bantus ur ppl came from
All afrian leaders were afraid of pretoria regime 😢but today theynr undermining south africa bcos is givern by Black people knowing that we.will.never do this evil
As a south African this is really sad and upsetting to see what we had to go through and rascim of white people in our country still happens in certain parts in south Africa are for only white citizens
To see that the highest number of DA voters are black is so disgusting. Empowering the oppressor to oppress you forever., tjoo.
Problemmits us how we conduct ourselves
correction: no it doesn't
Some Bantu think they are entitled to everything
Farm murders are being ignored
@curzethemall White people aren't suffering in SA. Only in your head. 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

Can you imagine what things would be like now, if the Boers behaved like Custer right from the start?
Or as Cortez did.
Who are the boers
@@RaymondArthur73 The Dutchmen that came to South Africa with the intent of taking over. Boers, burgers and Voortrekkers. Famers, citizens and Pioneers.
What's Timmy gon do-ACK!!!!!
