DA - OPPOSES DISCRIMINATION BASED ON RACE / AFFIRMATIVE ACTION

NO

“Does the DA support Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) and Affirmative Action? We agreed that the answer to all these questions is an unequivocal ‘Yes’.  But this does not mean that we support the ANC's approach to redress. Our challenge is to strike the balance between the need for race-based redress and our commitment to non-racialism.” DA Leader Helen Zille, press conference, Cape Town, 24/11/13
