Pronunciation[edit]

How is "poorism" pronounced? Ewlyahoocom 06:56, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I assume that it is intended to rhyme with tourism, not pour-ism. Ponydepression (talk) 19:26, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Supporting Apartheid[edit]

Under the history section it is said, "It then attracted international tourists that wanted to support** and learn more about apartheid." This cannot be correct. People wanted to come and visit "slum areas" to support apartheid? Or am I just not understanding the context. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Luke engel (talk • contribs) 12:07, 5 May 2011

same here. that cant be correct--62.154.195.115 (talk) 09:05, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result was merge, after over three months without discussion. --BDD (talk) 19:11, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

While there are distinctions that can be drawn between slums and ghettoes, the idea of tourism that visits impoverished areas is really the same idea. BDD (talk) 18:30, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
