During the apartheid era, homes of couples discovered to be breaking the laws were raided, and their bed sheets often checked and removed in case they needed to be used in court to prove illicit relations.
The ban on mixed marriage, designed to enforce total racial segregation, was ended in 1985 – one of the early reforms that signaled the end of white minority rule, culminating in the release of democracy icon Nelson Mandela after 27 years in prison.
When he was elected president in 1994, Mandela declared: “We enter into a covenant that we shall build a society in which all South Africans, both black and white, will be able to walk tall, without any fear in their hearts, assured of their inalienable right to human dignity — a rainbow nation at peace with itself and the world.”
And now, relationships between people of different races in South Africa are seen as a sign of the integration and reconciliation espoused by Mandela after he strode out of prison a free man.

exactly...black people always think interracial relationships is a sign of progress and the white society accepting blacks and even feel good about seeing it....real interrgration happens in ownership and financial opportunities -
A man's seed could be his most brutal weapon for generations......
Your people will stare into the eyes of their sons and they will see my likeness......
I will be remembered in every glance, every smile, every tear that is shed for eternity.......
