South Africa's Democratic Alliance, the country's main opposition
party, has its first ever black leader. Mmusi Maimane took over
in May this year from Helen Zille. He says he wants to represent
all South Africans regardless of colour, but the vast majority of
black South Africans support the ANC, the party of Nelson
Mandela. Can Mmusi Maimane win them over and take race out of
South African politics?
