Original Note:
NNN Indeed, the song can be taken personally as hate speech. In 2011 a judge ruled this song is hate speech. The ANC stopped singing the song to avoid hurting the feelings of white farmers and inflaming racial tension. Malema was forbidden to sing it in public. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubul%27_ibhunu
