💨 Abstract

A national debate has resurfaced in South Africa over the controversial chant "Kill the Boer, kill the farmer," frequently used by EFF leader Julius Malema. The chant, rooted in anti-apartheid struggle songs, has drawn criticism from the Democratic Alliance, which asserts it incites violence and exacerbates racial divisions. Malema defends it as a historical liberation chant. Meanwhile, President Cyril Ramaphosa has acknowledged its sensitivity but stresses freedom of expression.
