South Africa:

Bishop Desmond Tutu famously described South Africa as the “Rainbow Nation” after the 1994 election. Ten years later, skin colour still profoundly divides and defines South Africa. Race colours the views of the new South Africa and its future, a Washington Post, Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation and Harvard University survey has found. Two-thirds of blacks say the country is going in the right direction while majorities of coloured, Indians and whites disagree. Three in four blacks are optimistic about South Africa’s future - a view shared by fewer than half of all whites.
