Target: Parliament of South Africa
Region: South Africa
Background (Preamble):
This petition started out as a protest and boycott against Naspers/Media24 at the Cape Town International Book Fair.

PUT AN END TO PREJUDICE IN PUBLISHING

STOP MEDIA APARTHEID

NO TO RACIST AND SEXIST BAASKAP IN THE WORKPLACE.
Petition:
We the undersigned, demand that South Africa's publishing industry, in particular, Naspers/Media24 and its affiliates such as "Die Burger" put an end to prejudice in publishing and that local media companies stop discriminating against employees, clients and the public on the basis of faith, class, colour and creed.

Furthermore we demand that Naspers/Media24 and its affiliates, such as Via Afrika, Paarl Media & Educor carry a "Racism, Sexism and Prejudice-Free" sticker on products until such time as all discrimination is done away with.

In addition, the group's community newspapers such as Metroburger and People's Post, should reflect the views of the community and not the racist ideology and apartheid editorials of the past.
