I'm not south african(i'm kenyan black/white, it doesnt matter), but I have noticed affirmative action for black africans is upsetting alot of white south africans(i'm assuming those upset are white)

I am impressed the south african government is taking steps at empowering the black population. Most african countries at independance just let the status quo be.

How would you have redress the current imbalance, as it is the white south africans still have the biggest economic muscle. Change is pain, but it is inevitable, blacks under apartheid had no opportunities. Whites now still have the same opportunities, they just have to cede a bit of their share of the national pie.
