💨 Abstract

The first group of white South Africans, primarily Afrikaners, left for the U.S. under a refugee program initiated by Donald Trump. 49 passengers were vetted and cleared to fly to Dulles Airport and then to Texas. Trump's offer has been divisive, coming amid heightened racial tensions in South Africa and a freeze on most non-white refugee admissions in the U.S. South African authorities criticized the move, claiming it misunderstands their domestic issues.
