Trump Expands Afrikaner Refugee Program to Boost White Migration to the U.S. [View all]
Trump Expands Afrikaner Refugee Program to Boost White Migration to the U.S. - EURwebThe Trump administration has revealed a new strategy aimed at increasing the immigration of white individuals to the United States.
This initiative targets Afrikaners, primarily of Dutch descent, based on assertions of racial persecution by the South African government. As NPR reported in May, claims of white genocide across African countries, including South Africa and Zimbabwe, have been advanced by white supremacists for decades. The U.S. Embassy in South Africa announced that a group named Amerikaners will act as an official “referral partner” to help in selecting candidates for U.S. resettlement.
A memo sent by the group to ... Donald Trump described the organization as “mainly Christian, conservative, and English-speaking,” and boasted of “a strong Western cultural orientation.” The group will help “consider eligibility for U.S. refugee resettlement for people who are of Afrikaner ethnicity or a member of a racial minority in South Africa who are victims of unjust racial discrimination.”
