Susan, I have been wanting to visit Capetown for so long. It’s a big dream of mine. It’s so so gorgeous. You are so lucky to live there. And as for crime…. Coming from the United States and all the mass shootings that happen daily, I’m not sure we don’t have just as much crime here. And there are no cities that you can walk around by yourself at night in the U.S. But whatever the case, i just can’t wait to visit Capetown!!!!

Cape town is an incredible city .

Any sports lovers and athletes come to enhance and sharpen their skills for international events,...right here ! I feel safe and motivated in cape town, because it s Lekker ! People here are good and laid back, walking slower and enjoying the moment . Kudos to the Capetonians for always teaching me patience and making a Plan, that is an international skill. Crime is the same as every others city that I have been, For some reason in cape town when i record videos, i only hear Birds singing, plenty of them , in Europe i hear police cars sirens and traffic.

It'd be more accurate to say something like "there's a mixed-race community in South Africa called Coloured people" than saying "mixed-race people in South Africa are called Coloured". I think it would provoke different questions about South African history from people visiting South Africa, otherwise they'd assume something like my above example is what we mean when say "Coloured people", 'cause e.g. one white parent-one black parent is often what they mean when they say someone is "mixed-race".

Another great video. Cape Town is a lovely and scenic place. I've visited 3 times and planning to return shortly in 3 months. I highly recommend renting a car to get around although there's Uber and public transportation. My first 2 times there I relied on public transportation which I was limited to a few things. On my 3 trip i had rented a car and was able to travel more. Speaking of race, in the US it goes by the color (race) of your father. I have biracial friends. Their mother is black, father white. They look more black, but because their father white, they label as white. South Africa and America have one thing in common which is diversity. There is crime everywhere and US probably have more crime than South Africa 😁. I encourage blk Americans to visit the motherland. It doesn't matter which country, but come. Instead of spending thousands towards the Caribbean, Mexico, or Europe come to Africa, spend the same amount, and get treated better. And you are actually saving on money with you getting more out of the dollar.

Throughout thr southern Africa border countries, you would find coloured/creole people. If you go further up towards north of Africa along its coast is the island of Cape verde, you will find creole people of West African and portugese ancestry there as well.

N.B. "Coloured" or "Black" in South Africa isn't so much about being mixed or not mixed, but about having heritage in the creolised cultures of Cape slave + indentured Khoekhoe descended communities, rather than the surviving Indigenous Bantu-speaking majority cultures. Our enslaved ancestors were a diverse group of Africans and Asians, so, together with our Indigenous Khoekhoe ancestors, our ancestry is "mixed", but it's not "mixing" itself that's the origin of the Coloured-Black distinctions in South Africa, it's the history of slavery and land dispossession in the Cape Colony - hence the use of Cape Coloured/Cape Malay. Though it's possible e.g. Afro-descendant Americans visiting Cape Town might actually be mistaken for Coloured locals, no one who's not from these cultural heritages/experiences, esp. not anyone from outside South Africa, should be expected to identify as "racially" Coloured . Not even South Africans from biracial families (where neither side is Coloured) would typically identify as Coloured. P.S. Cape Malay is one of the sub-cultural Coloured/Creole identities defined by the community's adherence to Islam and are descendants of people enslaved at the Cape the same as the Coloured Christian majority.

You are indegenous to Cape Town not the entire South Africa. Batswana people have Khoi roots! My gran was Motswana, fair skin and features of a Khoikhoi. Check the Batswana culture and Basarwa(Khoikhoi) very similar. She was a bit of both! Northern cape people are mostly Batswana! Khoikhoi descended from Namibia, they’re still there in their original form! You are indigenous to Cape Town, not ALL of South Africa! All other tribes were there, That’s why you can’t claim to be indigenous In KZN. Don’t erase Africans from Africa! We ALL ABORIGINALS IN THIS CONTINENT! Including Cape Town! Cape Town isn’t a country AND WILL NEVER BE!

Dude no afro descendant would wanna be identified as coloured take off your backward apartheid blinkers, the world coloured was just a term to further cause divisions amongst Africans, yes I understand there are Asians that came over as slaves they should be identified as such Asians. Most of you have no relation with Boers and Asian ancestry hence you find people that look like the majority of your community in most indigenous groups such as batswana, Sotho who share the same culture as Khoisan people.

@@tpmash What are you talking about? I said Coloured people have Indigenous roots. Our enslaved ancestors have other diverse African roots. We also have enslaved ancestors with diverse Asian roots. And all those lineages met in the Cape Colony through colonisation. That cultural and social experience is what the colonial governments used to separate Coloured identities from Black identities, despite is sharing the same Indigenous African roots with the majority of Black South Africans (who you can also find have some Asian ancestry in their communities from escaped Cape slaves already). Who wants Cape Town to be a separate country? Not me.

@@mrt6610 Yes. Because it wasn't the colonial governments who set up the different classifications and used that to indoctrinate e.g. anti-Blackness in Coloured communities. No. Coloured people did that all to themselves. Where did I say anything about not being Black or African? Or is there a comment here I can't see? This is the history of what happened in the Cape Colony where the colonisation of South Africa started and why Coloured as a identity exists today. Our Khoekhoe ancestors had their land and cattle taken away, they were separated from their cultures and languages settler farms, our enslaved ancestors were themselves stolen from what's today Nigeria, Angola, Mozambique, Tanzania, Madagascar, Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh and Indonesia and many other places still in Africa and Asia. That's the good, the bad and the ugly of our heritage. It's a heritage we share not just with other Black South Africans (many slaves escaped the Cape Colony and went to live with amaXhosa, Khoekhoe and Batswana too), but with the African diaspora in the Americas and the Indian Ocean. Go bother someone who actually doesn't know their Black history and embrace their African origins. Thanks. 👍🏼

I agree, it is the name of an ethnocultural group rather than race. Trevor Noah, for example isn't Coloured. Yet if a Coloured couple adopted a baby of any race that child will be Coloured.

@@hospagalief Trevor is not ethnically Zulu and only speaks isiZulu as an auxiliary language. From his mother's side he is Xhosa and from his father's side Swiss. He did a routine back in the day (I think it was called "banana-type") where he explained the plight he shares with other mixed-race South Africans who do not identify as Coloured. I'm yet to meet a mixed South African who does not identify with Coloured culture who is okay with the term being used to describe their racial heritage. The opinion has been expressed by many that it should only be used to describe cultural heritage and not race.

@@MartinMenge are u south African? I know Trevor's background, the point is the whole of South africa would refer to him as coloured. I've yet to meet coloured people that are upset they're referred to as coloured. Granted Trevor is from joburg and now is the shining beacon of merican corporatized identity politics, but I've actually hung out with him and played soccer with him, and he has no problem identifying as a coloured south African

Re: 'colored'. Here in Cape Town this means 'not white and not black', so actually includes for example Indian, Indonesian and Chinese. It is not equivalent to 'mixed race'. I believe it was a specific legal classification during Aparthied. Where I come from (Zambia) colored is used exclusively to refer to mixed race whereas Indian or Chinese would be called by those names. The definition of 'black' is certainly different from the US. Although Obama and Tiger Woods are celebrated in Africa neither would be considered black if they were not famous and lived in Africa and would face strong opposition if they tried to stand for President.

Looked like you only stayed in Cape Town for a day. There is so much more to Cape Town. Local indigenous food, museums, local art and cultural shows, beaches, markets, famous fish and chips, nightlife, farm visits (fruit picking, horse riding, animal petting, etc), waterfalls (newlands forest, cecilia forest) warm water springs, ... etc. all within 1 hour from where you were. The list is endless.
