Thanks for your video! It’s really cool to see your perspective and you bring up issues that we as Capetonians (and South Africans in general) are still grappling with. From what I’ve seen, healthy tourism really is so valuable to us here. It directly funds small, locally owned businesses (like those Bo-Kaap restaurants) and incentivizes us to maintain our naturally rich and attractive biodiversity. More importantly, I think it allows people to see that we are trying and that no help goes to waste. I’m still a student and I have a lot to learn but I want to be able to work to make things better here. Then when you come back you can see even more joy!

@@TheWildernessChannelDid I actually blame W h i t e people in my original comment? Show me where I actually mentioned them above, or is it your conscience eating at you? While on the subject of migrants, let me say that many Xhosa people in Gugulethu, Langa, Khayelitsha, Nyanga and other areas of CPT have been there for a long time -- this isn't something recent as you're purporting. Langa was est. in 1923 under the Urban Areas Act, formally opened in '27. Nyanga in '46. So this fallacy that B l a c k people living in CPT is only a recent phenomenon is a fallacy. Many were born and raised in CPT. Yes, there are those who have moved there in recent times, coming from other provinces within RSA, however wouldn't you say they have just as much right to exist as everyone else who lives there since they're South African?

@@TheWildernessChannelI live in Gauteng and there are plenty of people from other provinces, including CPT/ WC who moved here for economic opportunities, yet you hardly will ever hear us telling them that they are migrants and should go back to their provinces as much as you do in CPT. Seems a lot of CPT residents call Black South Africans migrants with undertones of "they don't belong here, they are a burden, and are unwanted." That's at least the impression I usually get. Ironically, you have those from Russia, Serbia, UK, Holland, etc who migrated to CPT/ WC in recent times, but I never see the same treatment bestowed upon them. I wonder why? 🤔 Suddenly you want to make a distinction between the Khoi and Bantu as African groups and even claim that all Cape Malays are descendants of the Khoi -- a misconception since many have more Asian or even Euro DNA and less African (Khoi) DNA compared to say, the Xhosa. All this just so you can say they don't belong there, however those of Euro descent who are South African totally belong there, no questions asked. The a u d a c i t y! *All South Africans* should be comfortable living within RSA w/out self-appointed landlords and Historians policing them and telling them where they do belong and don't belong. This isn't the '50s.

@@_theerealnono_7694 Firstly, you need to learn to read and interpret ehat I said properly. You talked about discrimination and glaring wealth disparities in the Cape in your first comment. You are implying it is the whites, in that comment, so yes you did blame whites. Besides the whole thread of this video is about seeing the disparities in wealth as brought about by whitea and apartheid. That is the implication and don't try to deny it. Every foreigner who travels to South Africa brings this up. It is the elephant in the room and helps them to gain virtue signalling points. Secondly, I did not say that blacks were not allowed in Cape Town, I merely noted that the black population in Cape Town was always very low at 4%, and that since 1994 there has been a massive influx of bantu people into Cape Town, many of them being foreigners. It now stands at at around 40%, perhaps more. That is clear evidence that the Cape was not traditionally the home of the bantu. That is an historic fact. You can't deal with the fact that the bantu people colonised southern Africa by driving out the Khoi/San, who were the original inhabitants. Now you insult them by denying that the Cape coloureds are the descendents of the hottentot people. I will also say that I resent the fact that there are foreigners of all kinds (Europeans included) who have swooped in and taken advantage of the chaos that is ANC rule. I stand by my original statement, and wrote it to set things straight. I will willingly acknowledge the history of apartheid, but I am sick of hearing falsehoods being pedalled by the other side. The history needs to be even handed, or are you going to deny the Mfecane happened, or that the ANC murdered and tortured their own people in their bases outside of South, or the reprehensible practice of necklacing. The economic disparities in South Africa now fall squarely at the feet of the communist ANC who had 30 years to properly educate all out citizens, but chose instead to lower the standards and destroy our education system. Open discrimination against whites has only forced them to adapt and become more versatile in finding ways to survive. Their economic success is partly driven by the actions of the ANC who have added over 125 anti-white laws against white South Africans. Yet they have allowed organised Russian and Nigerian criminals into our country. Worse than that, they are working with George Soros, a man who believes in exterminating people. Focud your attention on the real enemies of our country. The white South Africans are not the problem.

@@Get.Lost.Travel I lived in Cape Town for a year during the apartheid era. I am a white American. Some fun facts from back then: (1) The local commuter trains were segregated by race, so different cars were set aside for whites and non-whites. Local buses, on the other hand, were integrated, so when I wanted to do something with my black Angolan friend, we took the bus together. (2) The University of Cape Town, which I attended, was required by law to be a white university. BUT...if you were non-white and wanted to pursue a field of study not offered in non-white universities, you were allowed to attend UCT. As a result, there was a higher proportion of non-white students at UCT when I was there than there was at my liberal university in the United States. (3) I encountered Marxist theory applied to academic subjects for the first time in my life while at UCT. I'm not suggesting apartheid was better than we think---just that there were some interesting anomolies in those days.

As an Eastern European living in SA for several decades, I can tell you one thing: I still can't understand the culture of a pretty aggressive culture of begging in the every traffic lite and wider. There are other countries in the world with bigger inequalities in Asia, America, China, and even in Europe, but begging is not "celebrated " in any way like in SA. It is a great pity for the country of such beauty, national wealth, and diversity. It lives bad taste in the mouth of the visitors. Black government in power did nothing to regulate it. In fact, it looks like they encourage it to make all Europeans feel guilty for the sins of small group of white elitists and racist. So, even if you are struggling, ordinary, modest Tom, Dick and Harry, you are forced to feel bad about baggers the moment you live the house door. Unlike Eastern Europeans who do appear grumpy, unfriendly, and depressed ( for valid reasons. Opresion and powerty have been running there for almost a century ), we would rather drop dead of hunger than disturb anyone or to ask for food, let alone for the money.

As a South African, I always say (hypothetically) IF I was forced to live in South Africa long term, the ONLY place I will live in is Cape Town✅ Otherwise I won't live in SA due to the major safety concerns everywhere and other personal preferences😊 (hence why I am moving abroad permanently SOON) ... But when I come back to visit my beautiful country, I would always want to go to Cape Town🏙 FYI: The Western Cape province is divided into 2 parts. CAPE TOWN and THE GARDEN ROUTE. I lived most my life in the Garden Route side of the Western Cape province. It is INSANELY beautiful. Arguably even more hidden gems and nature scenes than Cape Town. But Cape Town is special because it is more developed than any other cities in SA. (and definitely safer than Johannesburg City)

What you saying doesn’t make sense. Cape Town is the most dangerous city in South Africa. It records the highest crimes rates in the country when you look at the top 10 most dangerous places in the country. So clearly safety is not an issue for you. It’s also not more developed than Joburg. Not by a long shot. Saying it is shows you haven’t been anywhere else in the country. Cape Town is however much less integrated than any other city, but that can’t be the reason why you like it is it…………….This delusional thinking of non native settlers from Cape Town is what is bad for this country.

People saying that you only did touristy stuff is trying to sound important!😂 I'm a born and raised Capetonian. 35 years old. So many Capetonian families have also gone to Kirstenbosch, the beaches, the waterfront etc. So many go to the waterfront quite often. It's not just tourists. Lol. I'm sure you still saw more locals than tourists.🙂

😂 Right?? Thank you for saying that! I'm not one of those KZitemrs who is "anti" touristy stuff, to be honest. I like whatever is the best and most fun way to experience a place, and if that means it's a popular tourist attraction so be it! But yes, there were locals as well 😂 AND I had an amazing time, which is the most important part.

Yeah we blame it on the apartheid government and on all the capitalist Hedgemon that made sure to keep control of the economy after apartheid ended. If your bitter about this country because of equality then you might as well head home to Europe. We dont need negative people like you here whilst we are building on the future. Your problem is that you hate equality and the fact that black people control this country. GO HOME. Well Done to this guy for pointing out the truth however bad it looks, its the truth!!!!!!

As a tourist the same applies to every traveller: Respect the people and spend money, South Africa's Tourism potential is almost unmatched in the world. Inequality is all over and it's not tourists' responsibility to solve it. SA people need to solve SA problems. So go visit, have a blast, be aware of your surroundings, be safe and spend money like there's no tomorrow!

The way I view it, is that its a place for the tourists to have fun and have a relatively safe space to enjoy their visit or holiday or whatever.

I’m happy you experienced Cape Town, although it wasn’t to its fullest. There is so much more to Cape Town than what you experienced and where you were. You were definitely caught in the tourist trap which I understand completely. But there is so much more to South Africa than just Cape Town. you have to go more inward and visit Sabie, Clarens, the Drakensburg, Dullstroom and those type of places. I promise you that at least 3 of those places will steel your heart😉

Try driving through the Transkei region of the Eastern Cape and see the many thousands of mansions dotted around the landscape. Most of these are inhabited by a grandmother or maybe a caretaker, but they are built and furnished by the people living in squatter camps in Cape Town. Sure, not all squatter inhabitants do this, but a considerable proportion do. This gives the impression of poverty, whereas they are, in fact, landowners. This is a complicated country.

I'm just leaving capetown and as a dark skin and less pretty lady, My life changed in many ways 😅😅. I was literally given a left over McDonald's and I couldn't complain because it was a take away . Capetown awakened my spiritual era. Street girls literally attacked me on the streets, they thought I captured them which I didn't. The security guard did absolutely nothing , because I was black he didn't think I was a tourist 😅 . And that's how I could have lost my camera and phone . I was in South Africa for only two weeks, but when I went to go buy my ticket out to Namibia, the lady's at the counter, 4 of them just started shouting thar I have overstayed and that means I couldn't get a ticket I had to tell them to confirm the dates because u still had two solid weeks left.

The coloured communities are a mixed race peopled (reaces such as Khoisan, white, black, Cape Malay), some coming from bloodlines of the Khoikhoi and San people who later joined and became the Khoisan people.
