The ANC’s choice to destroy a grassroots poor people’s movement has been condemned world wide. The South Africa Council of Church buildings (SACC) has referred to as the incident "an attack on democracy'' and has issued a statement of alarm at how community leaders are being criminalised. Bishop Rubin Phillip, the chairperson of the KwaZulu-Natal Christian Council and Anglican Bishop of Natal, who had visited Kennedy Road, was "torn with anguish'' by the attack and spoke of the real social hope that Abahlali was creating. This sample can be discerned within the killing of the Miners in Marikana in September 2012.
