Sing Afrikaner Sing

“Sing Afrikaner Sing.” En dis presies wat Bok van Blerk doen. Maar meer as dit, hy moedig alle Afrikaners aan om saam te sing. Dit behoort natuurlik geen probleem te wees nie aangesien Bok bekend is vir sy lekker saamsing treffers. Nou gaan dit selfs makliker wees met die eerste treffer vanaf sy gelyknamige nuwe CD wat in Junie die lig sien, “Sing Afrikaner Sing.”
Die nuwe album volg in die voetspore van Bok se vorige CD, “Steek die vure aan,” wat platinumverkope aangeteken het. Kritici en Bok-liefhebbers was gaande en Bok het wyd lof ingeoes met nominasies by die SAMA-, Ghoema en Tempo Toekennings.
Die nuwe CD onderstreep maar net weer Bok se gewildheid by aanhangers van Afrikaanse musiek en is deel van die staatmaker kunstenaar se arsenaal aktiwiteite vir die res van 2015. Daar’s ‘n toer na België op die kaarte, asook ‘n besoek aan die Verenigde Koninkryk wat optredes rondom die 2015 Rugby Wêreldbeker sal insluit. En Bok die akteur sit ook nie stil nie met heelwat nuwe films wat in wording is.
Maar voor dit als gebeur, gaan “Sing Afrikaner Sing” vrygestel word. Die speellys sluit in liedjies met titels soos “Bok vir sports,” “Bosveld Afrika,” “Soos in die ou dae” en “Soutwater,” ‘n bonussnit wat in die film “Leading Lady” verskyn het. Daar’s ook ‘n duet met die Afrikaanse musiek ikoon Laurika Rauch met die naam “Ek het.” Johan Vorster, Ewald Coleske, Christoph Kotze, Pietman Geldenhuys, Fred den Hartog, Hunter Kennedy en Bok self het almal geskryf aan die liedjies wat op die finale lys van liedjies sal verskyn.

Bok van Blerk: Nuwe video ‘sweep nié op nie’

Bok van Blerk hoop sy nuwe liedjie sal as ’n boodskap aan
Afrikaanssprekendes dien om hul verskille eenkant toe te skuif en saam
te staan.
Die musiekvideo vir “Sing Afrikaner Sing” is Vrydagmiddag op sy webblad uitgereik. ’n Voorskou daarvan is reeds meer as 30 000 keer op YouTube gekyk.
Van Blerk sê verskillende mense sal verskillende interpretasies van die liedjie, wat deur Johan Vorster en Ewald Coleske geskryf is, hê.
“Vir my gaan dit oor taal. Dit is definitief nie ’n opsweping nie. Dit gaan oor taal en kultuur.
“Daar is amper sewe miljoen mense in die land wat Afrikaans as hul eerste taal kies. Taal is nie op velkleur of ras gegrond nie,” het hy gesê.
In die liedjie sing hy: “laat jou stem gehoor word; laat jy nooit verdwyn”.
Die eerste deel is ’n vermaning aan mense om te praat as iets hulle pla. Hy meen die tweede deel kan moontlik gesien word as ’n vrees oor die toekoms van die taal, maar hy het beaam dat enigiemand hul eie interpretasie daarin kan lees.
In nog ’n liriek, “want die groot verraad kom uit ons eie mense”, kap hy na die media wat hy meen mense se woorde kan verdraai om koerante of tydskrifte te verkoop. Dit verwys ook na verdeeldheid onder Afrikaners.
“Afrikaners is baie keer hul grootste vyand en dit is nie nodig nie.
“Afrikaners sukkel om saam te staan. Daar is ’n gesegde; As jy 10 Afrikaners saam kry, is daar 20 kerke vir hulle.”
Die liedjie kap ook na mense wat vingers wys en waarsku hulle dat “die wiel eendag (sal) draai”.
Van Blerk het die liedjie opgeneem met die hoop dat mense wat daarna luister, besef dit is nie nodig om mekaar af te breek nie.
“Dit is ’n ‘saamstaan’-liedjie, amper ’n ‘word wakker’-liedjie.
“Jy hoef nie skaam te wees oor wie jy is nie, maar as jy respek vir jou taal en kultuur wil hê, moet jy ook ander se taal en kultuur respekteer,” sê Van Blerk.

Steve Hofmeyr sings “Die Stem” to Australian fans
Afrikaans singer Steve Hofmeyr, who recently caused a controversy by
singing the old national anthem at a music festival in Mbombela, has
repeated his actions by again singing Die Stem at the Afrikaans Club in
Australia.
Steve Hofmeyr included “Die Stem” in a recent show at the Afrikaans Club in Australia.
Beeld
reported on Monday that around 400 people stood up and sang along during
his 90-minute performance of Federation of Afrikaans Cultural
Associations (FAK) songs, which included “Die Stem”, in Adelaide on
Friday, according to Arno Nel, the organiser of Hofmeyr and his son
Armand’s tour to Australia and New Zealand.
People “hung onto his lips”, said Nel.
After the show Hofmeyr’s facebook page
included the message about what he called the “Die Stem Dilemma”
saying: “…With pride and homesickness. As one. Without warning.”
Hofmeyr was recently criticised
by some after he sang the old anthem, originally composed by Afrikaans
poet CJ Langenhoven at the Innibos arts festival.
The Economic Freedom Fighters
also reportedly called on Parliament for the “Die Stem” portion of the
current national anthem, which combines “Nkosi Sikelel’ iAfrika”, first
composed by Enoch Sontonga and later used at political meetings, and
“Die Stem/The Call of South Africa”, to be scrapped.
Group tries to get Hofmeyr into politics
The group, called 'Miljoen stemme vir Steve' (A million votes for Steve), was created by Sakkie van de Skyf with Hofmeyr's permission, Eyewitness News reported.
Created last week, it now has over 111,000 members.
The group was created after Hofmeyr told Van De Skyf on radio earlier this year that he would start a career in politics if he received a million votes.
"Let's show him [Hofmeyr] that we stand behind him," the group's description says in Afrikaans.
"If you become a member it's automatically a vote."
Another group has been created called 'Miljoen Stemme Teen Steve' (A million votes against Steve), but it has not received much support.
Afrikaans singer chains herself to statue to protest defacing

As South Africans debate the removal of colonial statues and symbols, some Afrikaans citizens are pushing back.
On Wednesday, a group of Afrikaans protesters gathered in Pretoria to rally against the defacing of a statue of former president Paul Kruger, which was splattered with green paint earlier in the week. South African opposition party Economic Freedom Fighters later said some if its members took part in the defacing.
The demonstrators, led by Afrikaans singers Sunette Bridges and Steve Hofmeyer, accused the South African government of failing to protect key historical monuments. Bridges also called the vandalism an attack on Afrikaner heritage.

The demonstrators, led by Afrikaans singers Sunette Bridges and Steve Hofmeyer, accused the South African government of failing to protect key historical monuments. Bridges also called the vandalism an attack on Afrikaner heritage.
The Economic Freedom
Fighters, South Africa’s second-biggest opposition party, said its
members were among people who defaced statues in protest over symbols
that remain from the country’s colonial and apartheid past.
The statue of Paul Kruger, a president of the Afrikaner-led Transvaal Republic before the Anglo-Boer war, and four figures of townspeople around him, were splashed with green paint in Pretoria’s Church Square on April 5. Statues of Britain’s King George V in Durban and Queen Victoria and the Horse Memorial in the coastal town of Port Elizabeth were also vandalized over the Easter holiday weekend. In March, the statue of Cecil John Rhodes at the University of Cape Town was smeared with human excrement.
The “statues should be taken down,” Moafrika Mabongwana, EFF deputy chairman for Tshwane, the municipal area that covers the capital Pretoria, said in a phone interview on Tuesday. “We don’t agree that these statues should be put in public places. We aren’t saying that history should be erased. All the statues should be identified and taken down.”
In the 17th century Dutch and French settlers arrived in what is now South Africa’s Western Cape province. Later the British arrived and Rhodes helped to expand the U.K.’s influence as head of the provincial government and by funding an expedition that led to the colonization of what is now Zimbabwe. The government that created apartheid laws came into power in 1948 and the country’s first all-race elections were held in 1994.
While some towns and street names commemorating apartheid and colonial-era leaders have since been changed, many historical symbols have remained.
After paint was thrown on Paul Kruger’s figure, the Star newspaper pictured three members of AfriForum, an organization focused on protecting the rights of Afrikaners, protesting at the base of the statue with a sign that read “Ons gaan nerens,” which means “We are not going anywhere.”
Kruger’s statue is now being guarded by police and any further damage to the figure may result in prosecution, Blessing Manale, Tshwane’s mayoral spokesman, said in a phone interview. There’s also a team of people cleaning the statue, he said.
The main political opposition party to the ruling African National Congress, the Democratic Alliance, condemned the EFF’s “senseless” destruction of statues in a statement on Monday.
The University of Cape Town met for a second day on Wednesday to decide on whether or not to move the statue of Rhodes, who donated the land that the university’s main campus sits on. University Vice Chancellor Max Price has said he believes the statue should be moved.
“The calls for Rhodes and other statues to fall are a symptom of the underlying problem of a lack of transformation in the institutions and in society in general,” Zizi Kodwa, national spokesman for the ANC, said in an e-mailed statement. “South Africa must continue to engage on how best we preserve this painful history so that we never forget in support of our young democracy. We must also debate the meaning our different people attach to these symbols.”
South Africa has other memorials and statues that may face being renamed or being removed. There is Rhodes Memorial, just above the University of Cape Town, and there’s Kruger National Park, named for Paul Kruger, with another statue of him at one of the park gates. In Franschoek, about an hour from Cape Town, there is the Huguenot Monument, dedicated to the French immigrants, and close by in Paarl there is a monument to the Afrikaans language, and in Pretoria there’s the Voortrekker Monument that commemorates the Afrikaners who fled from the British in the Western Cape, trekking north in ox-wagons.
“I do not like the idea of wiping out history and destroying or removing a statue,” Adam Habib, the vice chancellor of Johannesburg’s University of the Witwatersrand, said in an e-mailed response to questions. “Instead, I would have preferred to build a new statue commemorating the victims next to the Rhodes statue with a plaque telling their story.”
“The mistake made is that more layers of history and statues and memorials weren’t added after apartheid ended,” Alana Bailey, deputy chief executive officer of Pretoria-based AfriForum, said in a phone interview. “We feel a national debate is needed before expenses are incurred and changes are made. I feel political leadership is lacking on all sides.”

While some towns and street names commemorating apartheid and colonial-era leaders have since been changed, many historical symbols have remained.
Building Resistance
“If you want to change these statues, defacing them is exactly the wrong way to go about it because it builds resistance,” JP Landman, a Johannesburg-based independent political and economic analyst, said in a phone interview.After paint was thrown on Paul Kruger’s figure, the Star newspaper pictured three members of AfriForum, an organization focused on protecting the rights of Afrikaners, protesting at the base of the statue with a sign that read “Ons gaan nerens,” which means “We are not going anywhere.”

‘Painful History’
“As a government that promotes a transformative national agenda we also accept that the past cannot, and should not, be completely wiped off,” Nathi Mtethwa, South Africa’s culture minister, said, according to Business Day newspaper.The main political opposition party to the ruling African National Congress, the Democratic Alliance, condemned the EFF’s “senseless” destruction of statues in a statement on Monday.
The University of Cape Town met for a second day on Wednesday to decide on whether or not to move the statue of Rhodes, who donated the land that the university’s main campus sits on. University Vice Chancellor Max Price has said he believes the statue should be moved.

We must also debate the meaning our different people attach to these symbols.”
Many Monuments
The ANC doesn’t support the destruction of property and feels that future generations need a reference to history, Kodwa said in an interview.South Africa has other memorials and statues that may face being renamed or being removed. There is Rhodes Memorial, just above the University of Cape Town, and there’s Kruger National Park, named for Paul Kruger, with another statue of him at one of the park gates. In Franschoek, about an hour from Cape Town, there is the Huguenot Monument, dedicated to the French immigrants, and close by in Paarl there is a monument to the Afrikaans language, and in Pretoria there’s the Voortrekker Monument that commemorates the Afrikaners who fled from the British in the Western Cape, trekking north in ox-wagons.

Legal Issues
Many of South Africa’s memorials, monuments and statues are protected by the National Heritage Resources Act. While students at UCT want Rhodes’ statue moved as soon as possible, and the university’s vice chancellor has said he also wants it to be moved, the heritage laws will have to be considered.“The mistake made is that more layers of history and statues and memorials weren’t added after apartheid ended,” Alana Bailey, deputy chief executive officer of Pretoria-based AfriForum, said in a phone interview. “We feel a national debate is needed before expenses are incurred and changes are made. I feel political leadership is lacking on all sides.”
Sunette Bridges protests over Paul Kruger statue
Bridges threatened to chain herself to the statue if the mayor of the City of Tshwane Kgotsientso Ramakgopa did not collect a petition to protect heritage sites and symbols.
Bridges said a representative of the mayor's office obliged on Wednesday, which meant she would not have to spend the night with 'Oom Paul'.

(Ockert de Villiers, News24)
"We are here against the absolute vandalism and destruction of statues, monuments and heritage," Bridges said on Wednesday morning.
"This first started when Jacob Zuma got onto a podium and said all the problems in this country started when Jan van Riebeeck landed in the country."
She said this was part of an unyielding attack on Afrikaner heritage and the minority group.
Bridges said more than 12 000 people had signed the petition.

(Ockert de Villiers, News24)
The statue of Kruger and two bronze sentries in Pretoria was defaced with green paint over the Easter weekend.
The FF Plus laid charges against the EFF which admitted to being behind the defacing of the statue.
Close to a hundred people representing Afrikaner political parties including the Front Nasionaal Party, the Boer Vrou Liga and the Freedom Front Plus gathered from 09:00.
Some of the protesters held placards reading "Hands off our heritage. This is genocide!" and "If colonial statues aren't safe. Are we?"

Henning Joubert - Solo and Group Musician - Cape Town
Henning Joubert was born on the 22nd of July 1981 in
Klerksdorp, between maize fields and mines in the
heart of the old Western Transvaal (now North West
Province). Henning started making music at the age
of seven but the piano lessons were soon given up
for cricket and rugby. Seeing that Henning’s father
was a musician in his own right, coaching cadet
bands of the highest quality and an organist in the
church, there were always instruments around, so
Henning could always experiment with a variety of
instruments, from a trumpet to the church organ.
At the age of 12 a teacher at Goudkop Primary School
started a ‘boere-orkes' and Henning was asked to
play the concertina, as the teacher caught Henning
many times in the music room with his accordion.
Henning got the concertina on the Friday and by
Monday he played his first tune at the school
concert. Due to the fact that Henning grew up in a
folk music environment, he was exposed to a great
variety of musical instruments like guitars, bass
guitars and drums.

Henning Joubert
After Henning matriculated at the Higher Technical
School Klerksdorp, he decided to study music
(guitar) at the Jazz Department of the Technikon of
Pretoria where he obtained a scholarship. He had
already received numerous awards ranging from ATKV,
the Rock 'Guild - Best concertina player (17 years
old - modern adult section), Eisteddfod and Guinness
Book of Records for the largest concertina ensemble. While studying at the Technikon, Henning met a variety of artists and musicians, and appeared with many of them for a period of four years. Henning was a founding member of the Revolutionary Afrikaans Rock Band ‘Beeskraal’ and toured with the band regularly. Through these tours Henning met many more musicians and they approached him to play guitar for them. Later Henning broke away from Beeskraal and started playing on a freelance basis for artists such as William Blackrose, Steyn Fourie and a number of 'cover bands'. |

During a gig in London, Henning met Dozi and decided
a month later to tour with his band on a permanent
basis. After that Henning was a permanent member of
the Robbie Wessels band for three years and then he
became part of Bok van Blerk's band. In 2001,
Henning won the Sakkie-Langarm-Boereorkes
Competition on KykNet and the album that followed
was awarded with a SAMA Award. Henning is a very capable 'session' artist and plays guitar, acoustic guitar, concertina, mandolin, bass guitar, blues harp, banjo, piano & accordion. At 29 years of age Henning already has 18 year’s experience in the music industry (seeing that his first paid performance was at the age of 12 years). Today Henning also works on his own projects, including ‘Joubert’, an Afrikaans solo album he plans to release during mid 2012. Henning Joubert can be booked as a solo artist, or with a full band (Joubert) to perform at just about any function covering any genre. He also does backing vocals for most artists with whom he works and is a very talented songwriter. |

Sy sing verhoë regoor die land aan die brand en haar albums verkoop soos soetkoek. Boonop kan aanhangers weereens daarna uitsien om Lianie May later vanjaar op die Afrikaans is Groot verhoog te sien. Ons het bietjie met Lianie gaan gesels oor mode, die belangrikheid van velsorg en haar liefde vir Pretoria.
Behalwe vir cowboy-bootse. Wat is drie moet-hê items wat elke vrou in haar kas moet hê hierdie winter?
Beslis jou lekkerste warm baadjie of trui, wat jy gereeld met gemak oral en saam met elke jean in jou kas kan dra. Dan natuurlik handskoene en ‘n serp as jy uitgaan.
Wat is jou skoonheids geheim?
Ek glo maar in die basiese stappe: reinig jou vel, dra altyd vogroom en son beskerming, eet reg, dring genoeg water, neem jou multi-vitamines en kry genoeg oefening. Vars lug is natuurlik ook baie belangrik.
In jou musiekvideos spog jy altyd met ‘n welige haredos. Verkies jy ‘n langer of korter haarstyl?
Die langer hare is maar nog altyd deel van my en ek mis dit baie, maar die korter hare is weer lekker koel in die somer. Die korter hare is ‘n nuwe styl maar ek is besig om my hare weer te laat groei.
Enige wenke vir die versorging van hare?
Goeie produkte en die regte produkte vir jou hare is baie belangrik. Kies ook ‘n goeie salon en laat jou punte gereeld sny. Ek gebruik Gary Rom haarprodukte – hul salon haarmasker is brilliant vir droë hare en ek is baie bevoorreg om die salon as borg te hê.
Ons weet jy is ‘n Pretorianer maar waar is jou gunsteling plek om op te tree in Pretoria?
Enige plek in Pretoria!
Pretoria is die droom ‘dorp’ se liggies wat ek as klein dogtertjie op die plaas in die verte gesien het. Dit is ook die plek waar ek later sou kom bly. Wat ‘n voorreg om vir die stad se verjaardag op Kerkplein by die Paul Kruger standbeeld te kon sing en die jare daarna by die Voortrekker Monument vanwaar jy na die Monument en Pretoria kan staar terwyl jy sing … Pretoria was nog altyd my huis!
* Lianie May is later vanjaar op die Afrikaans is Groot verhoog te sien en aanhangers kan hul regmaak vir ‘n vertoning soos nog nooit tevore. Die wat nog kaartjies wil bekom sal op 25 Junie moet gou spring. Die onbetaalde kaartjies vir #AIG2015 word op 25 Junie om 10:00 weer beskikbaar gestel by http://t.co/HTrrTCuNdM.

"Jy sê nou die stryd is verlore.
Ons nasie te arm en klein.
Ons taal uit ‘n drang gebore
Wat een van die dae sal verdwyn.
My broer dit mag heeltemaal waar wees
Wie weet wat die toekoms gaan baar?
Miskien moet ons oormôre klaar wees
Om weer hierdie droom te laat vaar.
Maar as ons net altyd moet strewe
Na wat tot oorwinning gaan lei,
Wat baat dan die stryd van die lewe,
Waarin ons onseker moet bly.
Solank jou bedoelings maar goed is,
Gaan jy jou oor neerlae kwel?
Solank jy volhard en vol moed is
Dis tog die probeerslag wat tel.
Nee, soet is die stryd vir die stryder
want hy het 'n roepstem gehoor
maar die man wat sy deelname weier
is die man wat sy nasie verloor"

Steve Hofmeyr

Steve Hofmeyr (born 29 August 1964) is a South African singer, songwriter and actor and an activist for Afrikaner rights in South Africa, and has been involved in several controversies throughout his professional career.
Personal life
Hofmeyr married actress Natasha Sutherland, whom he had met on the set of Egoli: Place of Gold in 1998, they had two sons, Sebastian, born 13 December 2001 and Benjamin, born later. Hofmeyr also has three other children by other womenThe couple was divorced after reports of numerous affairs dominated Hofmeyr's time in the spotlight in 2008.In December 2008, Hofmeyr allegedly assaulted Esmaré Weideman, editor of Huisgenoot, a popular Afrikaans magazine, by pouring a cup of cold tea over her at the Miss South Africa finals. He was said to have blamed her and two other journalists for his divorce from Sutherland. Miss Weideman subsequently dropped her accusations.
On 19 December 2013, Hofmeyr was arrested in Bronkhorstspruit for driving at 169 km/h in an 80 km/h zone and was released on Bail of R500. He was subsequently fined R10,000 in the Bronkhorstspruit Magistrate's Court on 23 January 2014.
Hofmeyr married Janine van der Vyver on 26 January 2014. In 2008, Janine van der Vyver, a fitness instructor, revealed they had been seeing each other for 10 years.
Hofmeyr's grandfather was Steve Hofmeyr Sr., a leader in the Ossewabrandwag.
Controversies
In January 2007, there were reports that one branch of the News Cafe restaurant chain would not play Hofmeyr's song Pampoen ("Pumpkin"). The managing director of the company that owns the franchise denies that this is company policy and points out that many Afrikaans acts, such as Karen Zoid and Arno Carstens have performed at News Cafe.On 12 May 2011, Hofmeyr released the lyrics to his new song called "Ons sal dit oorleef", which means "We will survive this". The song is controversial, because Hofmeyr has threatened to include the word "kaffir" (a very derogatory name for the black population of South Africa) in the lyrics of the song. Hofmeyr removed the offensive word in his song, citing that the word would offend his black friends and colleagues.
In 2011, he made public that he supports the organisation "Expedition for Afrikaner Self-Determination" (Onafhanklike Afrikaner Selfbeskikkingsekspedisie, OASE). OASE describes itself as an advocacy group for Afrikaner self-determination in compliance with the international law and the guidelines of the international community. He is an avid pro-Afrikaner but mentioned that he maintains a moderate political stance in an OASE public relations video.
Hofmeyr was heavily criticised after performing the former South African national anthem, Die Stem, at a cultural festival known as Innibos in Nelspruit in July 2014. He went on to perform the anthem on international tours, and encouraged South Africans to continue singing it, stating that it did not contain any form of hate speech.
In October 2014, Hofmeyr wrote and published a tweet stating that he believed that black South Africans were the "architects of apartheid" on his public Twitter account. This prompted a significant public backlash. One of Hofmeyr's critics was puppeteer Conrad Koch and his puppet Chester Missing, who launched a campaign calling on companies to stop sponsoring Hofmeyr. On 27 November 2014, Hofmeyr failed to acquire a final protection order against Koch and his puppet in the Randburg Magistrate's Court.
Hofmeyr has given statements indicative of an apartheid denialist which has led various journalists and public figures to label him a "disgrace to South Africa".
