Tiktoker Sparks Debate On White Privilege Amid Student Protests

A South African TikToker, known as NolimitWhiss , has sparked debate online after sharing his views on privilege during student protests at Stellenbosch University, Cape town Etc reports.

The protests, driven by concerns over fee blocks and housing issues , saw students calling for broader support, including from their white peers.

In his video, the TikToker expressed frustration with discussions about poverty and privilege, arguing that conversations often focus on white privilege while overlooking black students from affluent backgrounds.

He claimed that more black students attend private schools and institutions than their white counterparts and suggested that those protesting should direct their grievances toward privileged black politicians' children as well.

The video prompted a range of reactions in the comment section. Some agreed with his stance, while others pushed back, emphasising historical inequalities and wealth distribution in the country.
