South African Tourism is denouncing racism and says racial profiling, whether by a patron or an establishment, is unacceptable, according to local reports.

“All South Africans, as well as all visitors alike, have the right to enjoy South Africa… we must connect with each other as we explore our country and also open our hearts and doors to welcome visitors from all over the world,” officials said in the statement.

There is no word yet from the resort condemning the patrons’ actions, but in the meantime, social media users are calling on other travelers and the ancestors to shut down the resort.

“Everything is wrong here. The racism. The assault. The ‘whites only’ pool,” one Twitter user replied to the sister’s video. “The @SAPoliceService should’ve made swift arrests. Let these racists who assault children spend their festive season behind bars.”

“This is the South Africa we should all say no to, not just with our words but also with our actions,” another Twitter user replied. “It is the ghost of our ugly past that keeps mugging our efforts as we lean into the future.”
