Seeds of Peace
MYTH or FACT?
By: Sarah Shaff
My name is Sarah Shaff, I am a new Immigrant from South Africa
SEVEN YEARS BEFORE I WAS BORN, APARTHEID OFFICIALLY ENDED IN SOUTH AFRICA
What is Apartheid?
Apartheid was the official policy of racial segregation – in other words, Racism and
segregation in South Africa was the LAW, and if you were anything other than WHITE you were a
2nd class citizen
Segregation in South Africa included:
• Separate buses for blacks• Separate toilets for blacks• Separate schools for blacks• Separate beaches for
blacks• No right to vote• No right to marry a person
of another colour• Etc…
What is Zionism?
• Modern Day Zionism – arose in the late 19th Century, a movement to re-establish a Jewish State in ancient Israel
Realized by Theodore Herzl during the Dreyfus Affair – “Jews could never hope for fair treatment in European Society”
What is Racism?
Hatred or intelorance of another race or other races
What is Anti-Semitism?
The hatred towards, or the discrimination against Jews for reasons connected to the Jewish Heritage…therefore surely…
ANTI SEMITISM = RACISM?
Zionism is the solution to protect Jews from this form of racism known as Anti-Semitism…
United Nations General Assembly Resolution number 3379
10th November 1975 the UN adopted by a vote of 72 to 35 that Zionism is a form of racism and Racial Discrimination
The irony…
Today Zionism is compared by some..to Racism – However Zionism was created in order to protect Jews from Violent forms of
racism and discrimination
Immigration to IsraelI was confused as to why Israel is called a
racist state, and why some circles refer to Zionism as Racism and even compares Israel to Apartheid South Africa
If Israel is like Apartheid South Africa, why do we have…
• Arab Knesset Members?• Arab Captains of Israeli Soccer teams?• Arab singers gaining the most amount of
votes in a israeli reality TV show?• Arab Authors?• Arab Doctors treating Jewish Patients and
Visa Versa?• Etc…
Saying Zionism is equal to Racism is infact…
Racist.
