Crowds marched toward the US Consulate in Johannesburg on Saturday  to voice their opposition to President Donald Trump's policies, describing the US's tariffs, Greenland ambitions and operation in Venezuela as 'imperialist' actions.⁣
⁣
Footage shows trade union members dancing and singing as they moved toward the consulate while carrying signs reading, 'there is NO White genocide in South Africa,' 'no war for oil' and 'free Maduro.'⁣
⁣
Michael Shingange, a member of the Congress of South African Trade Unions which was formed in 1985 to unite anti-apartheid unions, argued that the US has a recurring pattern of targeting countries to exert control.⁣
⁣
“It's been Cuba for over 60 years. It has been Panama, it has been Libya…They are threatening South Africa, they are threatening Greenland... they are moving country by country," he said. ⁣
