Steve Hofmeyr Stirs The Pot With 'oranje': An Anthem Amplifying Afrikaner Pride
In a bold affirmation of Afrikaner identity and culture, South African singer-songwriter Steve Hofmeyr has released a new song titled 'Oranje.
The song offers a poignant reflection on the Afrikaner experience, exploring themes of recognition and unity within a society that often marginalises this ethnic group.
Hofmeyr, known for his controversial views and deep-rooted connection to Afrikaner heritage, expressed his intentions behind the song.
He reflected on a historical backdrop, stating, 'I wanted to sing this song in this year, 2025 AD, in which the Afrikaner is not seen as the world's 'muishond' polecat/weasel for the first time in 125 years.'
His words resonate with a growing sentiment among Afrikaners who feel overlooked in contemporary dialogues about race and identity.
