We see this in our National Anthem, which glorifies a regime and system that is responsible for black genocide. And we maintain our principle that Die Stem must fall. Asking blacks to sing the anthem of the oppressor, is the encouragement of self-hate, and the glorification of a criminal regime.
We see this white supremacy in the fact that English and Afrikaans remain the only two languages that have been mainstreamed and are used in professional environments. We see this in the buildings and streets named after the colonial murderers and criminals. We see
this in the continued dominance of the music industry by white executives.
We see this in the monopoly, white producers and production companies have over the series industry. We see this in the neglect of museum's like the House of Mama Winnie, while museums dedicated to whites and white achievements continue to be well maintained.
Across the arts, whites and whiteness are promoted at the expense of blacks and the African culture. Your department should be doing more to change this, but because the ANC does not have a vision of what a liberated society should look like, it has been unable to do so. [Interjections.]
There are currently eleven official languages in South Africa. But not all languages are treated equal. We have a Pan-South African Language Board whose mandate is to promote and create conditions for the development and use of official languages.
This mandate is of revolutionary importance. When the Afrikaners took over the government in 1948, they did everything they could to institutionalise Afrikaans, and they succeeded.
