The Nelson Mandela Foundation has welcomed the  judgement by The Supreme Court of Appeal in Bloemfontein that the gratuitous public display of the old South African flag constitutes hate speech, unfair discrimination on the basis of race as well as harassment. This after Afriforum brought the matter before the court last year. The civic organization argued before the SCA that displaying the old South African flag during the 2017 Black Monday protests against farm killings was not planned. It told the SCA that the Equality court order was made without meeting the required threshold to declare the act as hate speech. We spoke to AfriForum's Ernst van Zyl
