Black Woman Wins Survivor South Africa
The winner of Survivor South Africa is two were in the final, both women, one white and one black and the decision has been made.Political, Racial or plainly coincidental? You make up your mind. I personally think that there couldn't have been any political sway in a show of this nature. But just imagine if the final four contestants were white males. Imagine a white Afrikaans female winning the first South African Survivor in the New South Africa.Update: The votes showed DID NOT SHOW colour lines, possibly unintentionally, but nonetheless. One black guy , one coloured guy and one coloured white woman all voted for the black woman to win. I am once again not stating that this was racist, but possibly racially aligned.
Survivor South Africa - Possible Racial Politics
I am watching the final episode of the first Survivor program in South Africa. In every other Survivor in any other country of the world things would be clear cut. I won, you won, she did, he did, black, white, coloured, Indian, man or women it wouldn't be about gender, race, religion or any of these labels. But I just can't help but ponder about the political innuendo and influences of the South African version of our show.There are two survivors left, one white woman and one black women. Incredibly convenient for demographics I must say. But this could easily be put down to coincidence. Now we wait and see who exactly the winner will be. Vanessa (black girl) or Jacinda (White Afrikaans girl).Update to follow in about an hour when I know who wins!
