A South African lawmaker has been suspended by his party, the Democratic Alliance after a series of old clips resurfaced online of him spewing violent racist language against black people. Renaldo Gouws initially insinuated one of the videos was doctored and denied it but a statement issued by the DA says it was genuine and not a fake. In the video, Mr Gouws, who was sworn into parliament last week, uses a local slur typically reserved for Black Africans repeatedly along with the n-word, and calls for black people to be killed. The centre-right DA the country's second-biggest party, has faced accusations of racism from critics who say the party wants to protect the interests of the white-minority population - a charge it denies.
