But do they matter to us?
In South Africa, do BLM? This is why I always had a problem with BLM, because I thought the message should be just Black Lives Matter, but in reality, it seems to be a message to Whites that Black Lives Matter, but not a message to “blacks” that their lives should matter.
When xenophobia strikes, who is the primary target of local blacks? And the black police do very little (we can see the videos). When the local blacks go after the Chinese, all of a sudden, full force is used to stop the black mob violence.
They cant target Chinese so easily@bhulomasende Because you are led by clowns from March & March and Operation Dudula who have no plans to help you guys get jobs or land. They wanna see you angry at people that look like you while their political careers flourish. 🤡🚮
This sentiment goes back to why xenophobia and racism will never end. There is no point discussing undocumented immigrants when the real issue is hate, and how easy it is to scapegoat any targeted community to create a political career. Getting rid of undocumented immigrants only means they find another target. They will acquire a new target and go again.
SHAMEFUL
It is so bad, for me personally, that we just had a discussion about the future of Pan-Africanism. I do not think people understand how this makes us look. Not just South Africa, but as a “race” (if there is such a thing). Because returning to America, what do we see?
Some would push back and say, ” Well, Tommy Robinson’s white band of thugs does the same thing.” My first response is that he is a significant minority of British culture; we are not concerned with white thugs when discussing African problems. We are not competing for the bottom position. The entire Pan-African project is called African development, trying to get Africans into better socioeconomic spaces. Creating stability and building the foundation for growth. I have no idea why I would find comfort in knowing that the UK has xenophobic thugs also.
They can afford it, African cannot
