South Africa is considered a rainbow nation and it should therefore not be out of the ordinary to see an interracial couple on social media.

I am a user of Facebook which is a social media platform. There are many controversial topics that are discussed on social media. Social media can be defined as an online platform that allows you to communicate with others through the use of the internet (Shaughnessy, 2012, p47). Examples of social media are platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. An incident I found offensive was a racist post on Facebook about interracial relationships. This was highly offensive to me as I am in an interracial relationship myself. I found this post to be a violation of my rights as a South African citizen living in what is supposed to be a racially tolerant society
