Four white students accused of making a racist video in South Africa will face trial, after attempts failed to resolve the matter out of court.

The video, which caused a racial storm in 2008 allegedly shows the four forcing five black cleaners to eat meat soaked in urine.

I couldn’t believe this when i read it... It was as if the student were using the cleaners as toys... forcing them to perform tasks and eat things that shouldn’t be eaten

I did think that maybe it wasn’t racially motivated and maybe a case of plain bullying (although that’s just as serious in my eyes) however the article goes on to say...

"The video is believed to have been recorded in protest against the university's plans to racially integrate students' residences. "

If this is true... then it is truly disgusting... what a shame!

I would say they where not forced to do this...they were even laughing while doing it.....
I am not saying it is right what they did but still.....The food part was bad....
