Racism: Gauteng must come clean

One of the main purposes of an investigation into a plane crash - apart from bringing closure to friends and relatives of those who may have died - is to detail exactly what went wrong and then to make recommendations for changes to ensure a similar occurrence doesn't happen in future.

One would have thought that, in dealing with allegations of racism in a fractured, angry and hurting society like South Africa, the need for transparency would be as important as that in an air crash probe... with the same going for the need to determine what happened and put in place measures to deal with racism.
