Clifton's popular 4th Beach. Picture: COURTNEY AFRICA/African News Agency/ANA Following the racially-charged, discriminatory incident that took place on Clifton Beach this week, activists planned to occupy Cape Town's popular Clifton Fourth Beach today (28.12.18). Those who live further North of the country stood in solidarity by posting conscious, thought-provoking, and downright woke posts on Twitter.

@MmusiMaimane how come you never stand with black people? Are they only good for votes. The #CliftonBeach situation is happening right under your nose. Show your support and stand with your fellow Africans and #OccupyCampsBay or #OccupyClifton pic.twitter.com/XgnUpRtCKk

The problem with some folks in the Western Cape is that their mindsets are deliberately stuck in colonial &apartheid era. They've made Cape Town a little sanctuary where overt racism is accepted &tolerated. I could tell you stories #occupyclifton #OccupyCampsBay #CliftonBeach pic.twitter.com/AUC0vDO2dS

The City of Cape Town is not only the most beautiful city in the world.
But is also the perfect display of the most unequal city in the world; where white apartheid privilege is on steroids. #ReclaimClifton #OccupyClifton #CliftonBeach @AlJazeera @AJEnglish

What's happening in Clifton is exactly why I'm going to buy property in Cape Town as a black person.There'd never be a Private Security company at that beach if the ratepayers association had a black person🤷🏾♂️Diversity everywhere is imperative.For now, #occupyclifton @702Aubrey
