Press Release: Murder more rife in rural areas - 19 January 2011.

A person in South Africa has the highest likelihood of being murdered in the Cacadu District municipality of the Eastern Cape, sexually assaulted in the Xhariep District of the Free State, violently robbed personally or at their business premises in the City of Johannesburg, and is most vulnerable to attack if they own a home in the Metsweding District of Gauteng, according to the South African Institute of Race Relations.

Press Release: Open letter to the Minister of Basic Education - 25th July 2012.

Press Release: Racial transformation not 'complete failure' - 12th September 2013.

It suggests that the widely held notion that racial transformation in South Africa has failed is not true - although much still needs to be done to create opportunities for black people.
