Oooooh — sounds damning! Or at least it does until you read past the jump. As it turns out …1. Musk left South Africa for Canada at 17.2. In part, he chose to leave because he didn’t want to serve in the apartheid-enforcing South African military [paragraph 14]3. His parents belonged to the anti-apartheid Progressive Party, and his father Errol ran and won office on that platform4. His black schoolmates recall that Musk “spent time with Black friends” [paragraph 9].5. Praetoria Boys High School had “a socially progressive undercurrent,” where the headmaster, teachers, and students “participated in freedom struggle activities” [paragraph 17].6. Musk rebuked a fellow student for using an “anti-Black slur,” and got bullied for it [paragraph 27], and later was one of only a handful of white people at the funeral of a black student [paragraph 28].
