Description
South Africa's opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) party leader, John Steenhuisen, says his being white was not a "handicap" in key elections this year, 30 years after the demise of apartheid. People are tired of racial profiling, Steenhuisen tells AFP in an interview in Johannesburg. "People will look at the DA and see a party that is serious about uplifting them from poverty, creating jobs and building a better future for them and their families," Steenhuisen says.
