💨 Abstract

Gayton McKenzie, the Patriotic Alliance leader, responded to allegations that he lied about his racial heritage. He identifies as a "coloured" South African, and screenshots surfaced claiming discrepancies in his racial background. McKenzie previously wrote about his diverse ancestry in his 2006 biography, mentioning roots from Ireland, Japan, and the Sotho people. He dismissed the accusations with humor, using multiple laughing emojis on his Facebook account, residing somewhere in the text.
