The term has been used actively by both black and white South Africans after the end of apartheid. Accusations of reverse racism have been leveled particularly at government efforts to transform the demographics of South Africa's white-dominated civil service.[21]
Nelson Mandela in 1995 described "racism in reverse" when Black students demonstrated in favor of changing the racial makeup of staff at South African universities.[22] Students denied Mandela's claim and argued that a great deal of ongoing actual racism persisted from apartheid.[23]
Mandela was later himself charged with reverse racism, during 1997 proceedings of the national Truth and Reconciliation Commission[24] and for supporting the 1998 Employment Equity Bill.[25][26]
Mixed-race South Africans have also sometimes claimed to be victimized by reverse racism of the new government.[27] Similar accusations have been leveled by Indian and Afrikaner groups, who feel that they have not been dominant historically but now suffer from discrimination by the government.[28]
Claims of reverse racism continued into the 21st century. Helen Suzman, a prominent white anti-apartheid politician, charged the African National Congress and the Mbeki administration with reverse racism since Mandela's departure in 1999.[29]
South African critics of the "reverse racism" concept use similar arguments as those employed by Americans.[30]
