This claim is incorrect. The actual incident involved two Black employees assaulting their White boss with a shambok (a type of whip) at a farm in South Africa. The event has been misrepresented. You can find the accurate details and video of the incident here https://www.faceofmalawi.com/2021/06/29/south-africa-2-black-employees-assault-their-white-boss-with-the-shambock-at-farm-see-video/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1824117630887670244

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
