Visiting South Africa's White Slum (Reggie Yates Documentary) | Real Stories

Wow I’m a black South African, and I didn’t know this place existed... And I think as South Africans we are missing the point... it is not the blacks vs whites or vice versa, it is the rich vs the poor and that right there has no color 🤷🏾‍♂️

Poverty sucks, doesn't matter your color, nationality or ethnicity

The fact Reggie has never seen poor white kids (and only poor black kids) in the UK shows he's never left London

I'm a white South African, my dad lived in coronation park till the day he died. In his case it was because he had a drinking problem but it's still sad, none of us could take him in due to that fact and that's why he stayed there, all we could do was to go get him for weekend visits and so on, then we had to take him back, he had such a strong family bond with the people who lived with him there though, they really looked after each other. My dad was also an amazingly talented artist and we tried helping him to make a living out of it so many times, but sadly for him he chose alcohol. It did not make him a bad human though

There’s no such thing as reverse racism, racism is racism.

Being a father myself, when I see another man suffering in poverty with his wife and children it makes me really sad.

Love the interviewer - you can tell he just cares about people, no matter what color they are. He really connected with the people he hung out with. I hope SA finds it's way

I'm dealing with SO MUCH right now and after seeing this I'm THANKING GOD for what I DO HAVE

“Dead people get more flowers than the living because regret is stronger than gratitude” who cares who said it,it’s just true

If everyone lived by the code: "Treat others the way you would want to be treated" it would solve a lot of things and make the world a nicer place to live.

This documentary is an eye opener, truly no situation is permanent

I think netherlands and engeland should take them back

It’s so interesting how the children do willingly helped him set up his tent. The innocence of children is so precious and should always be a priority to be protected.

"I try hard, but maybe I don't try hard enough" that's heart breaking.

I like the artist, former musician guy. He's very realistic and not bitter about life. He's just taking life as it comes.

We should be counting our blessings while watching this.

The best part of this documentary was Reggie driving the struggling father to a job interview which ultimately changed his family's life for the best.

Black, white, asian, doesn’t matter. This isn’t a good situation for anyone.

So amazing how honest this is especially when the one guy in the car describes affirmative action so matter of factly with no real tip toeing on the shallow aspects that come with admitting that

wow! This was an incredible documentary, thank you for offering this unique and interesting knowledge
