  • Black First Land First (BLF) is a black consciousness, pan-Africanist and revolutionary socialist political movement and political party in South Africa. It was founded in 2015 by Andile Mngxitama following his expulsion from the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), led by Julius Malema. Mngxitama’s chief policy is ‘expropriation without compensation’ of white-owned land, which he declares to have been directly stolen from Africans. On this issue, he has accused EFF of selling out to the ANC, which he regards as too friendly to business interests. BLF has been supportive of South Africa’s ex-President Jacob Zuma, and has also shown support for the influential Gupta family. Some of its members have been accused of threatening investigative journalists. In early-2019, the Freedom Front Plus (FF+) appealed to have the BLF deregistered. The Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) officially annulled the party registration on 15 July 2019 as a result of its violation of the Electoral Act, which prohibits limiting membership on the basis of race. The Electoral Court dismissed BLF's appeal in November 2019 and upheld an earlier ruling that the organisation can not be registered as a political party. In November 2019, the movement decided to amend its constitution to allow Whites to be members of the movement. In an interview a few days later, the movement's Zanele Lwana slammed the media for "deliberately reporting untruthfully on what happened" in the conference. It appears that the alleged amendment of the BLF constitution to allow whites was false because BLF leader Andile Mngxitama confirmed that "Whites still not allowed in the party" The movement's Deputy President said that the motive was more to allow its admittance on the IEC rather than to welcome Whites. In November 2020, the BLF was re-registered as a political party by IEC. (en)
  • Black First Land First (« Les Noirs d'abord, la terre d'abord », abrégé en BLF) est un parti politique déclassifié d'Afrique du Sud, panafricaniste et révolutionnaire, issu de la Conscience noire. BLF a été fondé en 2015 par , à la suite de son expulsion des Economic Freedom Fighters. En novembre 2019, BLF a été radié judiciairement de la liste officielle des partis politiques reconnus et aptes à se présenter à des élections, au motif que ses statuts étaient racistes et contraires au code électoral. L'objectif principal prônée par Mngxitama, accusé de racisme anti-blancs à plusieurs reprises, vise à exproprier sans indemnité des terres appartenant à des Blancs, terres qu’il estime avoir été directement volées à des Africains. Il considère sur ce thème que les Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) sont trop proches du congrès national africain (ANC) et des intérêts commerciaux. Le BLF a soutenu l’ancien président sud-africain Jacob Zuma et a également manifesté son soutien à la famille Gupta. (fr)
