Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : There are other things like dignity and equality which may inconvenience Mchunu, but he's still got to live with them; otherwise, it will be he who has to leave the country in pursuit of a legal system that suits his interpretation of Zulu culture.
47% : The crushed avocado that retailers insist on calling hummus is an affront to my people, but you don't see Middle Eastern communities taking to the streets of Johannesburg demanding that Woolies labels its food according to its customs.
