"Our government and constitution really needs to seriously start criminalizing racist acts and remarks. That's the only way that racists can be stopped, or at least slowed down. It is too easy to be racist in this country...way too easy."

@Matoli5 wrote:

"I'm happy that our sisters and brothers are fighting back, the young once are fearless. It's sad that they live in a country where racism is still a major problem."

@Rece114 commented:

"I don't know exactly what's going on. But the media can also make a situation worse. Why isn't it titled kids fighting.. Why a black and white kid fighting. Clearly we ourselves make it a race issue. Racism should not even be an issue in 2022 but seems it's still here."

@jim_ad added:

"This type of rhetoric as well as the policy of Jan Viljoen will never heal this country."

During his visit, coloured and black learners told Lesufi that they do not feel safe in the learning environment after the incident. They added that the racial motivation of the violent fight which broke out last Friday (11 February) makes them feel like targets.
