YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

South Africa's ambassador to the US has arrived home after being expelled by the Trump Administration.

Ebrahim Rasool was welcomed at the Cape Town airport by crowds of cheering supporters. Rasool was ordered to leave the US after Secretary of State Marco Rubio accused him of being a "race-baiting politician who hates America" and Trump. The veteran anti-Apartheid activist had said Trump's political movement was white supremacist in nature.
