19 August 2014
The South African Communist Party in the Overberg District will join the community march in Grabouw, organised by Grabouw residents on Wednesday, 20 August 2014. Our support for the march by our opposition to any form of the exploitation of the working class. It is in Grabouw where all forms of apartheid tactics are still prevalent, perpetuated by the arrogant and racist party of the monopoly capital which harbours and is further in alliance with apartheid era racist exploiters (DA).
In the Western Cape, the fall of apartheid didn`t necessarily translate into the complete abolishment of race, class and gender oppression and the elimination of apartheid practices. The current structure of the Western Cape still reflects in all material respect the foundation and development of the apartheid past. Over the years, in Grabouw, we have seen the worst brutality which was used by the DA against working class community members based on race. The divide and concur has always been one of the strategies the DA is using between the Coloured and African working classes.
Central to the march is the poor service delivery which has been made worse by the The Waterskloof Municipality. The municipality:
We are against the use of public funds to pursue an implementation of an ideological line that develops a class of the rich and/or race at the expense of others based on race.
