Hope #BlackMonday also include violence against small scale rural farmers, urban/township farmers, farm workers, black women farmers without land rights, etc.

The use of the apartheid flag at #BlackMonday protests is disgusting. There is no place for that flag in South Africa#ApartheidFlagMustFall

I support #BlackMonday. I come from a family of farmers. The lack of safety in rural SA is a crisis.

Farmers feed our nation, protect them!
We strongly condemn the racism on display at the #BlackMonday protest with the brandishing of the apartheid flag. This is unacceptable.
