However, there are strong racial disparities in the level of support, with the black African population more than four times as supportive as the white population.

Abstract

The results from the survey indicate that over the four-year period from 2003-2006, a slim majority of the population favours racial quotas in national sports teams. However, there are strong racial disparities in the level of support, with the black African population more than four times as supportive as the white population.
