What is coloured? Coloured following?Coloured what?
In South Africa we have something called the Cape Coloureds or normal terms just coloured. They are not white nor black but they are not a mix of the two, they are a unique nationality here in South Africa. They are also wonderfully warm people that during the apartheid time was allowed to live in the Cape regions and was the only farm workers allowed, here was no black people during that time. Some are also descendants of the Malay slaves that was brought here, they where given their freedom and received allocated places to live until the Apartheid regime was put in place and they had to be moved. Coloureds and whites tend to get along better than coloureds and blacks because the blacks see them as insignificant, I have even heard they are commonly known as monkeys by the black Africans.
