South Africa apartheid flag
The orange, white and blue flag was introduced in 1928 to represent white-minority rule during the apartheid era. It included smaller flags of the Orange Free State, South African Republic and the British Union Jack. It was, however, finally replaced in 1994. But the problem is some people are still flying the apartheid flag and this offends others, the Nelson Mandela Foundation has said. The foundation, which was set up to continue the legacy of Mr Mandela following his tenure as South Africa’s first black president believes the flag celebrates the crime against inhumanity which was committed by the white minority against scores of South Africans. The Foundation has since asked the courts to ban what it calls the gratuitous display of the apartheid-era flag, saying that it amounts to hate speech, unfair discrimination and harassment. It said it had been compelled to take that decision after the flag was on display during the “Black Monday” protests against white farm murders last October.
