'Dominant Colonial Economic Forces Must Change': SACP

SACPThe liberation of South Africa will not be worth anything if the "dominant colonial character of economic forces remains unchanged", said the SA Communist Party on Monday.

"The liberation will not be worth anything if the persisting economic dominance of white and imperialist owned capitalist monopolies remains unchanged," the SACP said in speech celebrating Freedom Day.

"The narrow and compradorial black economic empowerment and the increasing super-exploitation of the black working class through outsourcing, casualisation and slave-like conditions under which most black farm workers continue to be subjected to, must change."

The SACP said revolution would lose its meaning if it does not radically change these and other socio-economic conditions "still facing the majority of our people".

"We are celebrating 15 years of our democracy in the midst of one of the worst economic crises since the advent of capitalism."
