Deputy Science and Technology Minister Derek Hanekom has called for a national dialogue about the Shoot the Boer song.

Testifying for ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema in the hate speech case brought by AfriForum in the Equality Court, Hanekom said if the song offended certain people, it should be discussed.

He insists that the song does not refer to a specific ethnic group, but to a system of racial oppression.
