Great work Ernst. I am a white English speaking South Africa but grew up in an Afrikaans community and have watched over the years the change in consciousness of Afrikaners because they embraced conservative ideologies. I have supported Afriforum on a monthly basis for many years. Although we speak different languages, we have to see past that and embrace similar values.
The nursing profession in SA's public hospitals was world class and possibly the very best worldwide. I should know: both my mother and sister were testament to this great PROFESSION which sadly exists no more. Both public and private healthcare in SA is in need of serious LIFE SUPPORT.
@christinemarnewick2847 Do some research I think Solidarity is already doing that, anyway I think not sure they can do it with the new Akademia University.
Nonsense. The Afrikaans culture has been the leading force in homosexuality, racism and theft on our continent. The Afrikaans people who brought God's word to Africa have died, and their children took sides with the devil and subjugated God's children in Africa.

I am not Afrikaner, but I have observed the Afrikaners for decades since childhood, through out the the Apartheid years to the days I call freedom days. The attitude of all white South Africans did a 180 degree turn. Having lived in America for years, I have advantage of watching both communities. The White Southern are very humane, in many ways they have the embodiment of "ubuntu", just humane and welcoming just like Africans. To be honest, some African Americans, who travel to South Africa, some who have migrated to SA have seen it as well. They all see white South Africa are great humane beings. Which is the opposite of half of white Americans. This observation was reinforced to me just last week when the President of South Africa surprised many people when he appointed Dr. Pieter Groenewald as Minister. One fellow South African commented that's "respect". He is a respected man. Just a point of caution, take advise from the Conservatives in America with a wheel burrow of salt. Most of them are right from the school of white superiority. Anywhere good luck in your great work.
True and this 8s why I warn Ernst to not build a new Apartheid regime or generation that excludes whites from main stream mutiratial schools and systems. You are setting your people up for new trouble 8f you go down this path. Rather stand for your language to be taught in all schools (not exclusively but in the language subjects. Most of the terminology of Academic studies in Science, Technology and Humanities are anyway in English. I respect the effort of Solidarity as a Exclusive White Afrikaner Labour Related Union, but they are going to cause the same problems than in the Apartheid regime. 😮
Most of us do not align with the "progressive " leftist side of USA either... We have more in common with the conservatives... We are our own people and will not fully copy anyone!!!

My husband once phoned you, and you informed him that you only dealt with Afrikaaners. We have lived in Vanderkloof and he was in the grens oorlog at the age of 18 with many English speaking South Africans. He lost a great number of his friends. Did you serve in the border war? He was asked if he would assist in teaching in Orania as he is a professor and all his studies were part time. He is fluent in Afrikaans. Is he not good enough to be your neighbor? Will the Afrikaner and English speaking SA ever stand together in this country? He did not fight in the boer war. He is fluent in Afrikaans even better than I am. I was born Afrikaans.
I had almost the same issue with solidarireit. They run a specific narative. Solidarireit used to be my union until, I was framed for calling a guy a baboon, they blatantly refused to defend me. I lost my job and is til today banned from this specific industry group. Saying: If you are to big for the small guy you will surely be to small for the big guy.
The Afrikaaner Foundation sounds like a great opportunity to reach out to the U.S., and exchange information. I think the U.S. is facing many similar challenges.

Yes, please include the English speaking South Africans who have served this country. I am born Afrikaans but married an SA English man who is fluent in Afrikaans and very proud to be part of our family. As a previous person commented, please include them. He grew up in Pretoria and has studied at numerous universities. I think its time to include them. He has spent his whole life in SA.
Unfortunately they will not, the anger runs deep, I was in 1 SSB SADF with many English guys, served our country with honor, only to hear from people we are still not accepted....
@@donovan3788- It appears, we are still not relevant either. During the previous government, the English speakers were never relevant, and were excluded from government jobs, or if you did manage get a government job, your chances of promotion were almost nil. Yet, the English speakers were conscripted to the army, so they were good enough, to protect the country, but never good enough, to be relevant to hold senior government positions, in my opinion.
You get idiots in any nation. As a young engineer I often experienced a superiority complex amongst english speaking engineers - because Afrikaners are less than them in their minds. I regard English speaking South Africans very highly, just as I do any other South African not actively going after my culture. We share much. But English speaking South Africans don’t face schools in their neighbourhood being changed to other languages. They don’t face universities suffering the same fate. They do suffer the same challenges in all other spheres of life. So there is no doubt that English speaking South Africans will benefit from the efforts by bodies like this. I’m married to an English speaking South African and I attend the Anglican Church. There are quite a few Afrikaans families there also. So your generalisation is unfortunate I think. We all know the army was straight Afrikaans.. if you wanted to run a risky operation you did it in an English month because the senior officers didn’t read English comms, they just signed them…

People are so wrong about Orania. Please visit their website and read their constitution. They don't care about race or language. If you embrace the same culture and religion you are welcome there.
@@daveelliott2629Understand PERFECTLY. Exclusion by languge ONLY can be a FORMIDABLE BARRIER to SUCCESS. General Hertzog and the absolute PERFECTION of his outlook regarding INCLUSIVITY of both English and Afrikaans remains a factor which could well have changed the entire course of this country and completely AVOIDED the apartheid interlude. Times were very different then after the absolute devastation of the Boer Republics after the 2nd Boer War. Forgiving and forgetting the atrocities committed by Britain was extremely difficult to come to terms with but was embraced by the majority of Afrikaners who envisioned a greater future ahead from these ASHES. Publication: The White Tribe of Africa although not strictly 'on point' throughout tends to put this in it's correct PERSPECTIVE.

Excellent work Ernst! Regarding the UNs stance, albeit 10 or odd years ago, its not surprising seeing how "well" they manage other world crisises. Ukraine, Israel, you name it. They should be abolished. Godspeed with your work and we will be rooting for you here at home. Its cold and miserable but expecting the weather to clear up soon hopefully.
Gee whizz!! Millions of English/Afrikaans people born in SA as well as their English/Afrikaans ancestors. Ek is eintlik 'n baie Engelse Afrikaner. Ek hoop net dat Afriforum nie ons Engelse mense onder die bus skop nie?😮😢 In conclusion, I love Afrikaners and English speakers and Afriforum. Best of everything you do for us!!
Why not speak for all minorities in South Africa? That would include English speaking whites, Indians, Coloreds. That will get you a lot more traction with people in America.
I've been asking this question quite a lot and been ignored. I am not British. Both maternal and paternal families are Boer. My grandpa married an Irish lady, and for that, his family disowned him. My father and his siblings were called the 'soutie'(family surname). Both parent's familes fought the British and were incarcerated in the Pietersburg concentration camp. My oupa grotjie was a bittereinder, so go figure. To this day, I'm called a soutie, rooinek and other derogatory terms. So, I pay tax to support my oppressor and now donate to my discriminator. I am proud to be Boer and draw courage from visiting the voortrekker monument and the history passed down from my parents. Perhaps we should start our own organisation. 😢
"Why not speak for all minorities in South Africa?" The aim of the Solidarity Movement is to help and protect Afrikaners first and then others. Other minorities can help themselves we have helped other cultures before 1994 and with that we lost our right to decide upon our own future. So no thanks.
@@garysultan3469 you pay as a member a monthly fee... now we must pay and you get all the benefits for free, why not sign up? Become part of it.. don't come in and change it to a woke media pleasing lapdog either, start your own then.. a lot of coloureds joined as members they also love Afrikaans, most are Christians and a lot of their cases were fought aswell especially the one where coloureds were excluded from getting promotions in the W.Cape correctional services due to "over representation " even though they make up the majority of the province's population.. English whites in general are too woke, they dislike Afrikaners and wants to destroy afrikaans forcing their mother language on everyone
I see the world split into left and right, with right being the conservatives. As a South African, hotnot🤪, I have found myself gravitating to conservative patriots from different countries around the world, irrespective of race.

I have read some of the comments and would like to suggest that the word "Afrikaner" INCLUDES both Afrikaans and English speaking AFRIKANERS. We are the ancesters of Europeans who arrived in South Africa since 1652 . Afrikaners are a group of people who subscribe to the same values (which are based on the Word of God). Dankie Mnr Roets vir als wat jy doen vir Suid Afrika. Jy is n voorbeeld van n man wat weet wie hy is. Wat bereid is om jou moue op te rol en die taak aangepak het om Afrikaners te verenig. Ek is bejaard. Ek sien slegs die botsels aan die boom. Ek bid dat die Here die vrug sal vorm en laat ryp word aan hierdie boom sodat almal in Suid Afrika dit kan geniet.
What will the Afrikaner citizen benefit from this Afrikaner Foundation. I have been a member of Solidariteit for 20 years and did not seen poor afrikaner people benefit from our additional payments beside our monthly subscription fee
Hello Linda. The Solidarity Helping Hand has spent millions upon millions on bursaries for young people who cannot afford it. And that's just one example.
Ek stem saam. Ek dink dat Solidariteit die nuwe Broederbond is. Eendag is hulle aan ons kant en wil ons beskerm, maar dis misleidend. Waarom gaan hulle na CPAC toe? Waarom het hulle n Oppenheimer as advokaat? Hulle private skole is ook veel te duur, so wie help hulle eintlik?
Hopefully the government doesn’t see the foundation as a threat and rather views this as an opportunity for growth. How amazing if all our ethnicities could work together with an emphasis on building their own communities.
It is clear that the cultural devide between African people and everybody else calling themselves South African, is an insurmountable obstacle and hinderance to form a unified nation. The rift runs deep and animosity prevails. There will always be traces of antagonism towards the needs of minority groups for self-determination, which means interference in all projects. At least this keeps us busy and hopeful. Sad thing is that the Afrikaners have to look for support overseas. It is true that language is a very strong cultural binder, but great respect for our English speaking cousins- partly Irish extraction myself.
No, we just want to preserve our culture, and we appreciate and value the cultures of others. Loving your culture is not divisive. We love all Safricans
So where does all this leave the white South African who suffer alongside the Afrikaner. Many speak English but are Boer descendants. Is this another discrimination against them? As a 65 year old Boer descendant female who still remembers being discriminated because our household spoke English, in SA. This message has the same feeling. The most discriminated people in SA have been the white English speaking South African.
Poor victim, why not start your own movement? And no, your family abandoned the Afrikaans language for the English language, same for culture and norms, as such you alienated yourself. You're not entitled to inclusion, you include yourself through actions and choices that you make. Boer people didn't invade England, burn down most of the farms, kill half of the children under the age of 15 in concentration camps, and after all that was done Boer people didn't force English people to work in Boer mines and factories. You are ignorant of history, you are ignorant in general.
Hallo julle. Ek voel so hartseer om te Sien en te voel hoe ons as n Afrikaanse mens so strond te behandel word. Ek voel regtig dat ons actually onderdruk word.
I ask for no special dispensation for me as an English speaker. I support you because it is the right thing to do. It will also honour my original Dutch, Huegenot and 1820 Settler ancestry.
This begs the question. How can a training college be built by a small community when the state never builds anything. Well done Ernst and the best of luck.
I admire the afrikaner people they are very strong willed and a good act to care for your people and work for their well being sometimes I wish our other minority groups can do the same
Im of Afrikaner heritage Im worried that anything we build and invest in south Africa is too precarious, and can easybe destroyed or stolen from us by a government which might become even more extreme. Or even worse, we might face a potential genocide - and the world wont care because we're white. Why invest right in such a potentially hostile place? I love my culture, but i dont even feel its safe to raise my fanily in South Africa. Thanks for everything you're doing. I would love to hear your perspective on this since i think im not alone in this regard.
One wonders why you stay away from China and Russia. You may not be interested in them but they are very interested in SA. They only see a one sided view from the anc. Consider engaging with them. You may be pleasanty surprised.
Net twee persone hier wat die regte vraag vra. Ek is stom dat die VSA met sy rekord van imperialisme gekies word. Ek wil nie dat die dekante Amerikaners met hul gek president my regeer nie.
I agree, it's actually because Ernst Roets is probably a Zionist and probably a modern day Broederbonder. As such they want to cosy up to the USA, when the USA have done nothing but betray us historically.
Ernst, wat is die moontlikheid, om 'n mediese skool te begin. Ons kinders wil so graag medies studeer, maar hulle word af gekeur, ten spyte van die feit dat hulle so goed presteer.
Afrikaners moes dwarsdeur die eeue altyd veg vir oorlewing, ons taal, ons geloof. Opstaan en vir onsself n pad oopkap in ons land. Aan God alle eer....altyd en vir ewig.
Germany and Russia supported the Boers, supplying them with weapons, as well as sending military missions and medical assistance to the Boers republics. During the Anglo-Boer War, some 270 Russian volunteers fought in the ranks of Boer armies. In 1900, Russian Red Cross and Russian-Dutch ambulance units were deployed in South Africa, which provided medical assistance to both combatants and civilians...
That's very true Monaliza, and this is the irony of this individual Ernst Roets. Because there are Russian politicians that visit the Russia Volunteer memorials every year, there are people in Russia who are advocating for Afrikaners and not just financial interests like in the "Western World", including giving us land and easier methods of immigration. But for some reason they want to cosy up to the USA, England, the people who have historically betrayed us.

REG.....ALLES WAT NOU in die WERELD AANGAAN .....IS en was EERSTE IN SA GETOETS .
DANKIE VIR JOU wise waarneming .!!
Yep and this explains it further : 4 Stages of "ideological subversation" according to Yuri Bezmenov and all pushed by overseas NGO's.
Dankie vir julle harde werk
Ja jy is hoorbaar
Yes, I have contributed to Afriforum for many years and I don’t speak Afrikaans.
Please also send your whatsapp messages in Afrikaans AND English please 🙏🏼
Same, however Afriforum has no representation in our city.
Thank you for bringing the TRUTH forward to the world about South African and about the Afrikaaner citizen's but somewhere the English speaking White citizen's are forgotten about and lost in the crowd and once again a minority group is forgotten about .................
SHARE AGGRESSIVELY ASAP ACROSS ALL SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS!👍👍🇿🇦🇺🇲🇿🇦🇺🇲
I think when Ernst says Afrikaaners, they mean Whites with values that align.
@@TheZimmer1 Orania is a place for Afrikaaners but there is no place for the English speaking white citizen's ............. So I really don't feel very inclusive when everything he has spoken about and that is been built is for the Afrikaaner citizen's if you understand and see where I'm coming from .................
People are so wrong about Orania. Please visit their website and read their constitution. They don't care about race or language. If you embrace the same culture and religion you are welcome there.
@@daveelliott2629Understand PERFECTLY. Exclusion by languge ONLY can be a FORMIDABLE BARRIER to SUCCESS. General Hertzog and the absolute PERFECTION of his outlook regarding INCLUSIVITY of both English and Afrikaans remains a factor which could well have changed the entire course of this country and completely AVOIDED the apartheid interlude. Times were very different then after the absolute devastation of the Boer Republics after the 2nd Boer War. Forgiving and forgetting the atrocities committed by Britain was extremely difficult to come to terms with but was embraced by the majority of Afrikaners who envisioned a greater future ahead from these ASHES. Publication: The White Tribe of Africa although not strictly 'on point' throughout tends to put this in it's correct PERSPECTIVE.
Groot dankies vir alles ❤
The ANC has always been flogging a dead horse, and still is...U cannot make a bad thing good, U cannot make a dead and corrupt regime good... What are U gonna do about a Rabid to a bear whose in much pain, with a rotten toothache...😱...As far the ANC is concerned just they would rather kill the bear and save the tooth...😊😅😂....

Excellent work Ernst! Regarding the UNs stance, albeit 10 or odd years ago, its not surprising seeing how "well" they manage other world crisises. Ukraine, Israel, you name it. They should be abolished.
Godspeed with your work and we will be rooting for you here at home. Its cold and miserable but expecting the weather to clear up soon hopefully.
Gee whizz!! Millions of English/Afrikaans people born in SA as well as their English/Afrikaans ancestors. Ek is eintlik 'n baie Engelse Afrikaner. Ek hoop net dat Afriforum nie ons Engelse mense onder die bus skop nie?😮😢 In conclusion, I love Afrikaners and English speakers and Afriforum. Best of everything you do for us!!
Agree 100%.
Watching rerun from nairobi
Why not speak for all minorities in South Africa? That would include English speaking whites, Indians, Coloreds. That will get you a lot more traction with people in America.
He is a 'Christian' racist😂
I've been asking this question quite a lot and been ignored. I am not British. Both maternal and paternal families are Boer. My grandpa married an Irish lady, and for that, his family disowned him. My father and his siblings were called the 'soutie'(family surname). Both parent's familes fought the British and were incarcerated in the Pietersburg concentration camp. My oupa grotjie was a bittereinder, so go figure. To this day, I'm called a soutie, rooinek and other derogatory terms. So, I pay tax to support my oppressor and now donate to my discriminator. I am proud to be Boer and draw courage from visiting the voortrekker monument and the history passed down from my parents. Perhaps we should start our own organisation. 😢
Nobody is stopping them to join? There are a lot of coloureds already... but the hate these others had for our language is just absurd
"Why not speak for all minorities in South Africa?" The aim of the Solidarity Movement is to help and protect Afrikaners first and then others. Other minorities can help themselves we have helped other cultures before 1994 and with that we lost our right to decide upon our own future. So no thanks.
@@garysultan3469 you pay as a member a monthly fee... now we must pay and you get all the benefits for free, why not sign up? Become part of it.. don't come in and change it to a woke media pleasing lapdog either, start your own then.. a lot of coloureds joined as members they also love Afrikaans, most are Christians and a lot of their cases were fought aswell especially the one where coloureds were excluded from getting promotions in the W.Cape correctional services due to "over representation " even though they make up the majority of the province's population.. English whites in general are too woke, they dislike Afrikaners and wants to destroy afrikaans forcing their mother language on everyone
Uitstekende werk, Ernst en Ernst!
I see the world split into left and right, with right being the conservatives.
As a South African, hotnot🤪, I have found myself gravitating to conservative patriots from different countries around the world, irrespective of race.
Ons is most setelaars volgen sekere Mense maar Nou day Alles gebou en gevestig is wilsekeres dit Sommer net vat Soos ramaposa wat die geskiedenis Wil verdraasodat dit lyk BBB of dieboere dieskuldigis iskyk maar Na syspeech 16 December geloftedag Ek sou daarvan gehou het Om hom Mseklap the gee die vermetelhei wat so n simple men's het😤

WELL done, Ernst!!!
Ernst can we with your help fisilitate a bigger disvussion of this whole thing of boer or and afrikaner and where orania fits in the vf plus. I appresiate the fact that afriforum is not a political organisation but we are a small minority as it is and i feel we need eech other
Mooi my Manne...Voer Spote... At least something is happening in South Africa...😊
Morning thank you for talking about white afr south africans
Dankie vir julle goeie werk Erenst. Ons staan bankvas agter julle!
BAIE DANKIE VIR WAT JUL VIR ONS DOEN GLO MY ONS WAARDEUR JUL OPREG
Waardeer
Amazing to hear all the positivity, hard work and creativity to keep people safe and secure and hopeful
Ons harte klop trots op jou, Ernst en almal wat betrokke is.... het ons nie al die jare met n glimlag gesê.. n Boer maak n plan... nie. Mag die Here julle werke seën.. vir ons is dit alles gebede wat verhoor word. Dankie vir wat julle doen met durf, moed en krag! 🕯🕯💕
Dankie vir jou harde werk. Waardeer.
I used to donate to Afriforum for years, UNTIL, I started to receive a sassa pension!😢😢
I have read some of the comments and would like to suggest that the word "Afrikaner" INCLUDES both Afrikaans and English speaking AFRIKANERS. We are the ancesters of Europeans who arrived in South Africa since 1652 . Afrikaners are a group of people who subscribe to the same values (which are based on the Word of God). Dankie Mnr Roets vir als wat jy doen vir Suid Afrika. Jy is n voorbeeld van n man wat weet wie hy is. Wat bereid is om jou moue op te rol en die taak aangepak het om Afrikaners te verenig. Ek is bejaard. Ek sien slegs die botsels aan die boom. Ek bid dat die Here die vrug sal vorm en laat ryp word aan hierdie boom sodat almal in Suid Afrika dit kan geniet.
Hou aan Ernst, We need more warriors!
Hello vanuit 'n nat Kaapstad.
What will the Afrikaner citizen benefit from this Afrikaner Foundation. I have been a member of Solidariteit for 20 years and did not seen poor afrikaner people benefit from our additional payments beside our monthly subscription fee
Hello Linda. The Solidarity Helping Hand has spent millions upon millions on bursaries for young people who cannot afford it. And that's just one example.
Ek stem saam. Ek dink dat Solidariteit die nuwe Broederbond is. Eendag is hulle aan ons kant en wil ons beskerm, maar dis misleidend. Waarom gaan hulle na CPAC toe? Waarom het hulle n Oppenheimer as advokaat? Hulle private skole is ook veel te duur, so wie help hulle eintlik?
Amazing work you guys are doing, the English format is good for support I think. Well done
Watching the rerun
SHARE AGGRESSIVELY ASAP ACROSS ALL SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS!👍👍🇿🇦🇺🇲🇿🇦🇺🇲
Good work👍👍
Yes loud and clear
Watching from the U.K.
Hopefully the government doesn’t see the foundation as a threat and rather views this as an opportunity for growth. How amazing if all our ethnicities could work together with an emphasis on building their own communities.
So impressive!
Hello Ernest, Zoe van Hawaii
Wonderlik Ernst
It is clear that the cultural devide between African people and everybody else calling themselves South African, is an insurmountable obstacle and hinderance to form a unified nation. The rift runs deep and animosity prevails. There will always be traces of antagonism towards the needs of minority groups for self-determination, which means interference in all projects. At least this keeps us busy and hopeful. Sad thing is that the Afrikaners have to look for support overseas.
It is true that language is a very strong cultural binder, but great respect for our English speaking cousins- partly Irish extraction myself.
On point.
No, we just want to preserve our culture, and we appreciate and value the cultures of others. Loving your culture is not divisive. We love all Safricans
Thank you for respecting people who speak English, And may God continue shinning His face on you.
Dankie vir die terugvoering. Julle bly in my gebede.
Support the cause and learn and cultures to duplicate. ❤ God bless SA.
Welgedaan en dankie Ernst xxx
Thank you man
So where does all this leave the white South African who suffer alongside the Afrikaner. Many speak English but are Boer descendants. Is this another discrimination against them? As a 65 year old Boer descendant female who still remembers being discriminated because our household spoke English, in SA. This message has the same feeling. The most discriminated people in SA have been the white English speaking South African.
Poor victim, why not start your own movement? And no, your family abandoned the Afrikaans language for the English language, same for culture and norms, as such you alienated yourself. You're not entitled to inclusion, you include yourself through actions and choices that you make. Boer people didn't invade England, burn down most of the farms, kill half of the children under the age of 15 in concentration camps, and after all that was done Boer people didn't force English people to work in Boer mines and factories. You are ignorant of history, you are ignorant in general.
Hallo julle. Ek voel so hartseer om te Sien en te voel hoe ons as n Afrikaanse mens so strond te behandel word. Ek voel regtig dat ons actually onderdruk word.
Thank you God bless you
I ask for no special dispensation for me as an English speaker. I support you because it is the right thing to do. It will also honour my original Dutch, Huegenot and 1820 Settler ancestry.
Love the language, culture, people. ❤
This begs the question. How can a training college be built by a small community when the state never builds anything. Well done Ernst and the best of luck.
I admire the afrikaner people they are very strong willed and a good act to care for your people and work for their well being sometimes I wish our other minority groups can do the same
Ek wag met groot afwagting om na jou te luister. Joe Pretorius
Im of Afrikaner heritage
Im worried that anything we build and invest in south Africa is too precarious, and can easybe destroyed or stolen from us by a government which might become even more extreme. Or even worse, we might face a potential genocide - and the world wont care because we're white.
Why invest right in such a potentially hostile place? I love my culture, but i dont even feel its safe to raise my fanily in South Africa.
Thanks for everything you're doing. I would love to hear your perspective on this since i think im not alone in this regard.
Yes❤
You are on line
One wonders why you stay away from China and Russia. You may not be interested in them but they are very interested in SA. They only see a one sided view from the anc.
Consider engaging with them. You may be pleasanty surprised.
Net twee persone hier wat die regte vraag vra. Ek is stom dat die VSA met sy rekord van imperialisme gekies word. Ek wil nie dat die dekante Amerikaners met hul gek president my regeer nie.
I agree, it's actually because Ernst Roets is probably a Zionist and probably a modern day Broederbonder. As such they want to cosy up to the USA, when the USA have done nothing but betray us historically.
I WAS WRONG ABOUT ERNST ROETS & AFRIFORUM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE ❤
Ernst, wat is die moontlikheid, om 'n mediese skool te begin. Ons kinders wil so graag medies studeer, maar hulle word af gekeur, ten spyte van die feit dat hulle so goed presteer.
Vat my geld en bou! Bou voort my volk!
it's good
❤❤
How sad. My mom
was part of the voortrekkers and my dad's ancestors from Britain. Now what? Wat nou? Is daar miskien 'n plek vir "ons?"😅
Only in the afterlife!😂
Everything is not just for receiving but also giving.
Afrikaners moes dwarsdeur die eeue altyd veg vir oorlewing, ons taal, ons geloof. Opstaan en vir onsself n pad oopkap in ons land. Aan God alle eer....altyd en vir ewig.
You need to find a loophole where our tax does not go to government but to the community
Henriette
Germany and Russia supported the Boers, supplying them with weapons, as well as sending military missions and medical assistance to the Boers republics.
During the Anglo-Boer War, some 270 Russian volunteers fought in the ranks of Boer armies. In 1900, Russian Red Cross and Russian-Dutch ambulance units were deployed in South Africa, which provided medical assistance to both combatants and civilians...
That's very true Monaliza, and this is the irony of this individual Ernst Roets. Because there are Russian politicians that visit the Russia Volunteer memorials every year, there are people in Russia who are advocating for Afrikaners and not just financial interests like in the "Western World", including giving us land and easier methods of immigration. But for some reason they want to cosy up to the USA, England, the people who have historically betrayed us.
You are live.
Can I help? Like, work for anyone etc?
Sterkte in Washington.
