Post-apartheid secularization drives ethnoracial groups into insular identity projects

Evidence

Any discernible non-whiteness, by contrast, suffered segregating differentiation, attempting formally to compel the threat of resisting coherence into the disarticulating artifice of competing ethnoracial groupings nationally conceived. Ethnoracial divide and rule long preceded formalized apartheid, disarticulating blackness into fragmented parts as whiteness in contrast covered over the Anglo-boer split. — David Theo Goldberg, The Threat of Race, 1481 (#complicates, via linked claim)
