The white South African.

I am trying to realise what it means being a white South African & I will surely never understand as a black person but knowing that the whole world, apart from a few far-right groups, questions your existence in Africa must make you consider whether you really belong in Africa. I mean, sure, you could be hard-headed & continue forging ahead with the (now defunct) colonial ideal but after all the wars & racist policies, it is no longer welcome in Africa. So what to do with white South Africans? 

The group of whites that is considered the most racist in the world: white South Africans. What's makes them particularly more racist than other white people worldwide?


The future of the white South Africans

I think as Africans wake up to their world, the idea of colonisers - let alone colonisers hogging their land's economy - will be less welcome. What we will see is increasing xenophobic sentiments towards South Africa's white population. And I can imagine that this frightens many white South Africans, which is why many have left South Africa but here's an educated take; the resentment of white South Africans is more due to their views & sentiments of South Africa than their race. What do I mean? In South Africa, we have racist far-right neo-Nazi groups but very few whites are against them or try to discourage them. This stance alone would mean mass deportations in a typical African dictatorship but most white South Africans refuse to see themselves as a nation with black South Africans, instead they'd rather have a mixed race nation of people that is mostly "white-favouring" than live in a legitimate black nation-state. I imagine if a white South African wants to continue in peace in South Africa, he/she would have to sit around black people for longer than the 8 hours a day they usually have to in daily life in South Africa to fully understand the indigenous psyche. The ideology most white South Africans live by is outdated, racism is no longer fashionable & there is no superior race - just a more privileged race. Most black South Africans are not racist or xenophobic, they just don't want to be disrespected in their land. Black South Africans don't want to be called kaffirs, monkeys, baboons or any other derogatory term or be discriminated against by their race or culture & if that's too hard for you to understand as a white South African, I have nothing more to say except acknowledge that your presence in South Africa is a big mistake.

Comprehensive classification of Ngoni / Nguni groups.

List of Ngoni / Nguni nations : • Bhaca • Hlubi • Mpondo • Ndebele (northern Ndebele in Mthwakazi & southern Ndebele in Gauteng, South Africa) • Ngoni / Jere / Jele (mainly in Malawi, northern Mozambique, southern Tanzania, Zambia) • Nhlangwini    • Shangaan  • Swazi  • Tembu • Xhosa • Zizi • Zulu Altogether, twelve (12) "Nguni" groups are known to exist. From my knowledge in any case.  Bhaca, Hlubi, Nhlangwini, Swazi & Zizi are the Mbo Entity . The Mbo Entity often declassifies itself from the Nguni group. Nhlangwini & Swazi are under a Dlamini dynasty while the Hlubi & Zizi are also Dlamini tribes. Ngoni & Shangaan are of Ndwandwe origin (a tribe assimilated by the Zulu Empire). Bhaca, Hlubi, Ndebele, Nhlangwini, Shangaan, Zizi & some Mpondo are often classified as Zulu. While it's unknown whether Mpondo & Xhosa qualify as Nguni, they are often grouped as Nguni. Using family groups to classify :  • Mbo • Mpo...

The problem with a single African currency.

Preword: It's funny because one of the main reasons I found the courage to blog on African matters was due to a West African(?) gentleman who proposed the concept of a said "swal" & "zul" as a continental African currency in a blog. His boldness & conviction in his idea just captivated me & today I have to debunk this idea of his. But, hopefully, Africa sees why. African technologies & financial solutions Oh, Africa. We are so romantic; "United States of Africa", "Single African currency", "African unity", "Ubuntu"... all these fluffy, lovey-dovey concepts that will be ripped to shreds in the globalised world.  I debunked why a United States of Africa would likely collapse as soon as it sees the light of day. Today, I will debunk the concept of a "Single African currency" & explain why it would leave our enemies salivating.  I can't blame people who like stuff like United States of Africa...
