Racial prejudice complaints heard at SAHRC hearing
Former journalist Thandeka Qubule says the media has not been part of the country's transformation process.
Qubule was speaking at the public hearings held by the South African Human Rights Commission in Johannesburg. It is hearing complaints of racial prejudice against the newly re-launched Forum for Black Journalists.
At its inaugural meeting last month the forum invited ANC President Jacob Zuma to address them, but excluded white journalists. This has angered some journalists who lodged a complaint with the Commission.
Qubule says the newly formed FBJ will help end the juniorisation of black journalists and institutional racism in the media.
