Confessions of a white South African on Youth Day in 2021 - Daily Maverick

"My comfortable home, the area in which I live, the car I hop into without even thinking about it, the Zoom Pilates session I participated in last night, the tasty and nutritious food I eat, my access to excellent healthcare when I need it, the green belt I’ll walk in this evening, even my ability to write like this… I take them all for granted, but in one way or another they are all the product of apartheid, the demon child born of white privilege."
