Mr Ndumiso Dladla from the Department of Philosophy, Unisa will present the seminar. There has been increased attention in recent South African affairs to inter-personal racist eruptions which has increased anger and impatience among black people throughout the country as well as incredulity towards the purported non-racialism of the 1996 constitution. The various responses to this racism of many black individuals and organisations has culminated in a variety of claims among liberals and conservatives of a rise of “reverse-racism” - a supposed (and revealing) synonym for Black anti-white racism. This presentation will examine some of the epistemological, ethical and political factors which make so-called Black Racism, philosophical nonsense. In the course of the talk we will address critics who have mischievously treated the assertion Blacks Can’t Be Racist as an ontological rather than ethical claim. We will also address the actual political ontology of race by grappling with the questions “what kind of beings are Blacks really?” and “how were they invented?”.
