Exploring South African Identity

A Black South African music executive is being investigated by the Human Rights Commission for claiming that Whites are inferior.

Nhlamulo ‘Nota’ Baloyi is a South African hip hop exec who says wild things on a podcast called The Hustler’s Corner.

I invited him onto my podcast because of his claim that Whites are inferior to Blacks, which has upset many and landed him before the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) for Hate Speech.

To be clear, I don’t think expressing an opinion should be penalised by the state. After all, how is saying that Whites are inferior to Blacks a violation of anybody’s human rights? 😂

I mean, it’s a stupid comment anyway. He made a bunch of stupid comments, actually..

In the spirit of giving him a chance, I asked Nota to share his views, but I will repeat that I’m disappointed with his inconsistency. What he said on my podcast is different to what he has said on other podcasts.

I disagree with much of what he said, but we only had an hour, he had a lousy internet connection, and I didn’t want to stop and start every few minutes over every disagreeable point.
