Black Lives Matter and the Question of Racism

In South Africa where I’m from, one of the biggest issues that has plagued our country for decades now is racism. There is the issue of Apartheid, the segregation of black and coloured people. The country seemed to have broken free from the stronghold of racism once apartheid was abolished but not so. We entered into the era of Affirmative Action and Black Economic Empowerment. The young black people of my generation and younger, who have never experienced the segregation and hardships of Apartheid blame white people for their own “oppression”, causing whites to lose jobs and other opportunities – this has been happening since the early 2000s!

I see that this pattern is happening now in the US as well as in other countries in the world – the white people being under attack from “reverse racism”, in other words white people being made out to be the evil enemy who have always and are still oppressing people of colour.

We are pleased to announce our partnership with Hunter Tylo.

Many of you will recognize her as the actress who stared in such daytime dramas as All My Children and The Bold and the Beautiful. PEOPLE Magazine twice named her one of the world’s 50 most beautiful people. She was also successful in suing Aaron Spelling over his firing her from Melrose Place for not aborting her child, a case which is widely recognized in supporting a Mother’s rights.

Hunter is coming onto TUC YouTube LIVE this Thursday at 4pm EST to discuss her experiences in Hollywood and why she left, choosing rather to pursue YASHA’UA and the Torah. As a member of our community, she has also opened up a channel at our TUC Discord to discuss a number of pressing issues, like narcissistic abuse.

Here is your TUC Discord invite link. https://discord.gg/zFPnExWT

Be sure to introduce yourself and then head right on over to her room, “Getting Real with Hunter”.

We hope our partnership with Tylo will be an ongoing one.
