I remember speaking to a black American on Twitter. He told me that a Zimbabwean who had gone to school in SA, had moved to America. He started talking mess about South Africans to black Americans, that we’re lazy & uneducated. The black American guy, says he put him in check cause he knew he was going to soon switch up and say the same about Black Americans. He particularly highlighted that it’s very prominent to hear Zimbabweans especially talk mess about SA’ns in America. The joke is that in the UK, Zimbabweans tell people they’re South African. South Africa has given more than 200 000 Zimbabweans free work permits to work here, these were people who were here undocumented, here illegally. Yet they tell everyone who’s willing to listen that we’re uneducated.
@Ms Tee It is the same with the Afrobhobia/Xenophobia label that gets tossed around.. You ask yourself since 1999,whose troops get sent around the most in this continent on peacekeeping missions, who funds the African Union the most, who hosts and funds the Pan African Parliament the most, who was running around saving Timbuktu manuscripts and ensuring there is a library, etc. During the entire Mbeki presidency our taxes worked on that African Renaissance project and what we get in return are insults from people that do not know. It is a dirty shame that Africa converges here in its time of need but at the slightest instance of conflict, is also quick to forget that for the most part, we are our brothers' keepers.
I also once saw on come dine with me a Zimbabwean was a guest and host as well,she made Malva pudding for those Brits on her day and she said it's Zimbabwean desert 🏜 because SAns and Zimbabwean share the same kind of food,I was shocked because i never hear southies saying they eat same dish with zim,maybe there are tribes that share the same dish with Zimbabwean,but when I look at their dishes I don't see any similarities I've seen in SA plates,SAns make sure they eat meat and a lot,not large rice or pap,😄😄😄😁😄😁😄meat should be more
@MG We actually eat the same things in the Southern region, take it as different cultural cuisines not necessarily countries. The "rivalry" with Zim is also superficial because on the ground and in our villages we get along very well, have done so for 100s of years. Many white people in SA were born in Zim and Zambia before they settled here, same same.
@@lebo5281 ok I was not aware that's why I said maybe some tribes share the same,even the way you pronounce your food I never see them on SA restaurants🙏🙏🙏
Black history month is something I have grasped through the new black TV programs but before that I wasn't nearly as clued-up about the nuances in the history and similarities with us as South Africans.
I am laughing when Andile was saying "Dad'wethu" and Queen Ki said she preferred "sisi" for sister and later on she referred to Swahili "Dada" and "Kaka" for sister and brother 😂. They are similar though, "DADEwethu" in Zulu and "DADA yangu " in Swahili for my sister (I used our sister for the Zulu word, wethu, yangu those are just qualifiers). Languages are very easy to learn when you take time and learn the "root " of each word, especially Bantu languages. 🤞🏽
True, I've actually found that once you learn the root words of bantu languages, it's hard to unsee the fact that we're actually one nation. E.i. mamcane (Nguni), mangwane (Sotho-Tswana). In both languages the direct translation is "Younger Mother" (Aunty).
Great stuff, Mhlave! When girls talk to each other, they can say, "Weh Dade!"... Because Dade originally means female siblings (or just sister... Just the wethu specifies it's our sister).
Unless something changed in the last few months, it still seems to be there in SA. Hopefully, it is really diminishing. I hope we don’t keep fighting over scraps when there are great riches and potential which is controlled by a few. Queen, you’re spot on about what has often been told to the children of immigrants coming into the US. I hope we all grow beyond borrowed these offenses and can learn to love each in a practical way.
Great discussion. I would though disagree with my brother when he says there's tribalism in SA. In years gone by yes, but presently naah, let's not confuse disagreements or banter with tribalism. ☮️
I was agreeing with Andile until he said there is tribalism in South Africa which is bullsh*t, I'm 35 and I've lived in 3 provinces in SA and I've never seen or heard of tribalism in SA. Andile is confusing people who hire their homies and taking it as tribalism, it's like in America if you meet a person from the south you'll give them more advantage than the one from other parts. Tribalism is an unheard of thing in my country people are just proud of who they are!
It's true there's no tribalism in SA ,how did people like Thabo and Moeletsi Mbeki come about,and there's so many lerato shabangu dineo manyaapelo or Bathabile Dlamini are they not mixed? Bathabile is never a Zulu name
It his experience, plus if you didn't experience that doesn't mean it not there if you Zulu in Gauteng the treatment you are labelled as stubborn and that but people has personalities before they belong to anywhere.

The beef sometimes that happens between Black South Africans and Zimbabweans is the same beef that happens between African Americans and Mexicans and other migrants coming from Latin America and the Caribbean.
I was robbed by three foreign nationals Two Zimbabweans and one from Congo of a lot of money It’s sad 😢 and they have no remorse.But I no that not all Africans are criminals,but some are part of big crime syndicates and we got to protect ourselves we already have our own criminals in SA 😢
In South Africa there is no tribalism😔 we South Africans fought together for this beautiful nation that we call home, I grow up in the township and I have friends from all different tribes of SA, I studied with different tribes, I've partied and still continue to party with my South African tribes 🇿🇦
I believe Andile also has friends of other tribes as well. He may have just been speaking on his experiences with observing certain things amongst others tribes.

According to the great Credo Mutwa King Shaka never fought white. He was actually the first Zulu king to allow whites inside Zululand and the royal kraal. It's in a video where he discusses the myth about Shaka and misconceptions about Dingaan, Mpande
As a South African the xenophobia conversation was really interesting, I now understand the beef between Nigerian immigrants and AA’s. This was very informative thank you 🙏
Ni ce job by you and Endiy..There was other King that fought and won against one invasion by a European power Germany-he was Kuva Likenye (story on youtube)in about1900.On the foothills of Mount Cameroon.The Germans left but came back 4 years later with more soldiers more cannons, and had got cooperation from French to cut weapons supply to the Bakweri people .And took over
I could even overlook the arrogance, entitlement and lack of a thank you but what I can't stand the most about African immigrants specifically is how they worship and love yt South Africans when they get here and suck up to them using our name, saying things like "black South Africans are obsessed with race and should get over Apartheid and that yt South Africans are good people)...I'm sorry but that just can't be overlooked
There is no tribalism in SA. Black South Africans have no problems being friends and marrying people from other tribes and we've been doing it for years. Don't know where gets the tribalism part from🤦🏽♀️
Aish Andile my brother! I have to correct you on some of the incorrect statements you made or information shared with the Queen. The Zulu's are not the only tribe/nation that still has a king, the Ndebele's, Venda's, especially the AmaXhosa's had theirs who unfortunately passed away not too long ago. King Dalindyebo of amaMpondo (direct relatives of AmaXhosa is still alive and on the throne). I understand yoi are proud Zulu as you should be, but there are worriors in each and every tribe. The Zulu's became popular warriors because of Shaka and the short spear. Actually, the amaXhosa fought more wars than the Zulu's and one could argue that they must have had better warriors or at least equally as good. No Zulu king has ever thought of confronting the amaXhosa Nation, so maybe that should tell us something about this tribe. Last but not least, read dance is Nguni tradition that is still practiced by Zulu's Swati's and Xhosa's. Otherwise, great conversation guys. I like how you simplified the causes and possible solutions to xenophobia. It is stigma that has been haunting South Africa.
To make a little correction to my Zulu brother, he didn't mention the Ndebele tribe (who are an offshoot of the Zulus) who migrated from present day KwaZulu-Natal under the leadership of Mzilikazi who led his people who eventually predominately settled in the Southern part of Zimbabwe, they speak Ndebele (a strong dialect of Zulus), they have the same cultures as the Zulus, they have the same ancestry as the Zulus as they speak the same language and are brothers yet they are seen as foreigners by South Africans I speak from experience because my father and his family are Zulus from KwaZulu-Natal, my mother's side they came from Johannesburg, but my great grandfather on my mother's side was a pastor so he settled in Bulawayo in Zimbabwe so they settled in Bulawayo from the early 1900 me I was born and raised in the UK speaking Zulu and Ndebele and generally I didn't hear the difference between the two languages.
@ZuluWarrior Corrections: amaNdebele (North & South)in SA are not Mzilikazi's group. amaNdebele from Zim are not a Zulu offshoot, they are a Nguni splinter group. How amaNdebele from Zim are viewed in South Africa is solely dependent on the relationship between themselves and the Nguni people in South Africa because Botswana and Lesotho have no such issues simply because themselves & Batswana and Basotho in South Africa have always maintained that we are family, despite the borders.
@@lebo5281 - CORRECTION, i beg to differ amaNdebele in Zimbabwe are offshoots of Zulus, ZULUS ARE NGUNI JUST LIKE SOTHO, XHOSA, TSWANA AS WELL AS MANY OTHER GROUPS THEY ALL FALL UNDER THE ”NGUNI UMBRELLA ” so Please don’t try to be slick. Mzilikhazi was a general in Shaka’s army who fled with some followers with some spoils of war, fearing retaliation from Shaka, Mzilikhazi took his people conquering multiple tribes along the way eventually they settled in present day Zimbabwe as well as some parts of Zambia , he made his capital BULAWAYO. The amaNdebele of Zimbabwe are very closely related to the Zulus in language, culture and history compared with the amaNdebele of South Africa. When somebody speaks Ndebele from Bulawayo many say it sounds like they have a Johannesburg dialect. Please my brother don’t try to be slick, my roots and ethnicity comes from both Zulu and Ndebele sides this history has been rammed down my throat since i was a child here in the UK.
@Azania Crypto All this shouting and you miss timelines. Learn timelines in your history and understand why uMzilikazi was from eMantungwini and Shaka's mom was Inkosazana yaseLangeni...I shouldn't have to teach you your own history my skat. 💜
@@lebo5281 - All this i am aware of my brother but nothing you have brought forward negates the facts that i am highlighting and that is MZILIKHAZI WAS ONE OF SHAKA’S GENERALS AND HE FLED FROM SHAKA WITH A BAND OF FOLLOWERS, EVENTUALLY SETTLING IN PRESENT DAY MATABELELAND AND HE MADE BULAWAYO HIS CAPITAL. The amaNdebele or Bantu or Nguni group that Mzilikhazi brought with him from Kwazulu-Natal the vast majority of them still share close cultural, linguistic, heritage to the Zulu people in fact like i already intimated, they are direct cousins.
The guy didn't have a wider perspective or experience in terms of the last part there with tribalism talk. We have come a very long way. We are together but we are still a young country recovering from the whites dividing us.
@@Lihle100 tribalism ain't as extreme as other parts of Africa. You will literally find tribes intermarrying even in precolonial times. I literally have family members that speak a plethora of languages and we still love one another. I can however say it's the older gen that tends to say Tribalist things(eg Sothos use the same bowl used for bathing to wash dishes(they imply they are unhygienic). But yeah they young gen doesn't really care much about tribalism cuz they tend to vibe to the western world and speak English
Shaka never met white people but I get what his saying ( shaka Zulu contributed to changing the military style of the regiments) & To say Zulu people are the only ones who fought white people is so disrespectful to the other clans - 😏
There are other history sources that claimed he did love… that’s just history for you… thank you for your comment. We take pieces of historical evidence and do the best we can with inferences ✨
@@TheQueenKiTravels I'm also shocked now when they say he didn't 😂😂😂😂. Imagine. Not so long ago they were saying whites fooled him with the chair thing and they took the land (which was also a lie) now he has never met them?? 🙄. Same Shaka who defeated them at iSandlwana. The hate is actually against the Zulus not the other way around cause even overseas when one speaks of SA black people, they mention Zulus so maybe it's a form of jealousy 😂😂. With that said there is a form of tribalism but very minor and banter like. No one has ever been killed cause they belong to a certain tribe like other countries, it's just a battle of who is more influential on the country sonto speak. Very silly and childish
@@pmambongwe8640 Zulu does dominate. The reason is simply that it's EASY. You break, bend or corrupt it with other languages, and it still makes sense.Its very Communication friendly. Try that with the other languages and wow! (By the way I'm not zulu...thank God).
Zulus are responsible for white people headaches since they landed in the cape not saying other tribes did not contribute it's just that Zulus stood their ground against The English and dutch and they also established the oldest political party in Africa nown as ANC most might disagree wich is ok ,but the truth remains the truth thank you my sister for your interest to one of your traditions much love
Lol. What a load of crap. Xhosa people are the ones that held them off for 100's of years. Whites only managed to confront the Zulu's in the 1800s. They arrived in 1600's, so the Xhosa's were fighting the white man for 200 years ALONE. Also ANC is not a ZULU party.. all of their prominent leaders, were Xhosa, but its a multi-tribal party. Stop spreading tribal supremacy. You also have a Hlubi, surname, so I don't know what you talking about.
Plz stop lying to your self and others especially to our brothers and sisters in America, if you knew the truth you know that the Ditch landed in the Cape in 1652, I don't deny that they came across the khoiso as well as Xhosa people, but the truth is the khoi and Xhosa did not go to war with them , instead they welcomed them with open arms cause the Dutch at the time were just a group of few man from just one baot plz stop lying to people, by the way Maduna last name originates from the Zulu nation the only reason you have this last name in Xhosa nation it's because of looking for greener pastures in the country then ended up establishing in those areas that's all
@@nkululekomaduna Let me help you with a little history. "The Xhosa Wars (also known as the Cape Frontier Wars, Anglo-Xhosa Wars[1]) were a series of nine wars (from 1779 to 1879) between the Xhosa Kingdom and the British Empire as well as Trekboers in what is now the Eastern Cape in South Africa. These events were the longest-running military action in the history of European colonialism in Africa.'' Xhosa people fought back the colonizer for 200years.
This is not true, infect colonizers invaded more of the khoi and xhosas. Xhosa's and Khoi fought more battles and they also lost many people than all of us
That’s not true and you damn well know it. We know who played a big role in our politics. We know who was killing the ANC and the Xhosa during apartheid. Speak the truth you won’t need to oversell yourself . White people are no threat in your culture .
🤣🤣🤣 Andile, you made a mistake. King Shaka is exactly the one king who never fought white colonists. There is divided opinion on whether he even met/saw whites. Many Khoe from the Cape, southern Nguni speakers from whatnis the Eastern Cape now, Kings Dingana and Cetshwayo particularly, inkosi Bhambatha ka Mancinza, Batlokwa leaders lika Mmanthatise, Ndebele leaders like Nyabela, right to the Bapedi and other Northern Sotho leaders like Sekhukhune, Vhavenda like Makhado, all fought colonists, but never king Shaka. I'm sorry. The Khoe were the first to resist and fight white colonists and then next were the Xhosa especially, because the colonists were expanding eastwards, so they met the groups that eventually became the AmaZulu (the Zulu state was only forming then) centuries later.
😹😹😹 Shaka met the British and defeated them it’s everywhere 2 months ago this year British soldiers were in KZN to confirm the victory of the Zulu’s at isandlwana mountains with King Misuzulu they also apologised and commemorated the late Zulu Warriors.The British royal family also brought back Zulu stuff that they took from them during the war led by King ShakaZulukasenzangakhona .Southern Africans are also part Khoisan and Definitely other parts of Africa to and that’s confirmed .The Khoisan’s were killed by white people sadly who knows why I see that you seem to hate Zulu people don’t forget that if you’re South African and Southern African we have one common ancestor that shows up in our ancestry dna it’s South eastern bantu who’s that that’s our ancestor so tribes don’t even count to me anymore and we always have Khoisan or another part of Africa that our other ancestors come from .
Greetings: Hello: sawubona [sa.wu.bona]; literally "I see you". Respond by saying: Yebo [yeah.bo], translated directly as yes. How are you: kunjani or unjani [ku.njani] I'm well/good: ngiyaphila [ngi.ya. pila], directly translated as "I'm alive".

According to the great Credo Mutwa King Shaka never fought white. He was actually the first Zulu king to allow whites inside Zululand and the royal kraal. It's in a video where he discusses the myth about Shaka and misconceptions about Dingaan, Mpande
As a South African the xenophobia conversation was really interesting, I now understand the beef between Nigerian immigrants and AA’s. This was very informative thank you 🙏
You mean the diaspora war in general… you’re welcome dear ✨♥️
Yes yeah sorry that’s what I meant
Andile is a good guy and you’re so beautiful thank you for this video ❤
we need more of these😊😉
New upload coming soon ✨
😂🤣Sandile gave himself and Zulus too much credit but it was good video
His name is Andile, but thank you for your comment.
It’s that same tribalism he is so ignorant. Trying to paint a narrative that they rule smh where ?
This was about Zulus, all other tribes have their history to tell
It’s normal for anyone to give their people a lot of love
@@ZomziWeAfrikacatching feelings
Ni ce job by you and Endiy..There was other King that fought and won against one invasion by a European power Germany-he was Kuva Likenye (story on youtube)in about1900.On the foothills of Mount Cameroon.The Germans left but came back 4 years later with more soldiers more cannons, and had got cooperation from French to cut weapons supply to the Bakweri people .And took over
I could even overlook the arrogance, entitlement and lack of a thank you but what I can't stand the most about African immigrants specifically is how they worship and love yt South Africans when they get here and suck up to them using our name, saying things like "black South Africans are obsessed with race and should get over Apartheid and that yt South Africans are good people)...I'm sorry but that just can't be overlooked
Thank you for your comment
There is no tribalism in SA. Black South Africans have no problems being friends and marrying people from other tribes and we've been doing it for years. Don't know where gets the tribalism part from🤦🏽♀️
His perspective, experiences, and point of view. ✨
There’s tribalism in SA we need to speak the truth so that things can be fixed
💯 agree.
"Bhuti" is an Afrikans word same as "Sisi" is both English and Afrikans.. "Mfowethu" and "Dadewethu" are 100% Zulu...
Please tell your host he is very handsome 💜
One more thing, there is no tribalism here... I'm in Johannesburg and I've never experienced that
Aish Andile my brother! I have to correct you on some of the incorrect statements you made or information shared with the Queen. The Zulu's are not the only tribe/nation that still has a king, the Ndebele's, Venda's, especially the AmaXhosa's had theirs who unfortunately passed away not too long ago. King Dalindyebo of amaMpondo (direct relatives of AmaXhosa is still alive and on the throne). I understand yoi are proud Zulu as you should be, but there are worriors in each and every tribe. The Zulu's became popular warriors because of Shaka and the short spear. Actually, the amaXhosa fought more wars than the Zulu's and one could argue that they must have had better warriors or at least equally as good. No Zulu king has ever thought of confronting the amaXhosa Nation, so maybe that should tell us something about this tribe. Last but not least, read dance is Nguni tradition that is still practiced by Zulu's Swati's and Xhosa's.
Otherwise, great conversation guys. I like how you simplified the causes and possible solutions to xenophobia. It is stigma that has been haunting South Africa.
This gent was giving you a zulu lesson way to advertise for a beginner
To make a little correction to my Zulu brother, he didn't mention the Ndebele tribe (who are an offshoot of the Zulus) who migrated from present day KwaZulu-Natal under the leadership of Mzilikazi who led his people who eventually predominately settled in the Southern part of Zimbabwe, they speak Ndebele (a strong dialect of Zulus), they have the same cultures as the Zulus, they have the same ancestry as the Zulus as they speak the same language and are brothers yet they are seen as foreigners by South Africans
I speak from experience because my father and his family are Zulus from KwaZulu-Natal, my mother's side they came from Johannesburg, but my great grandfather on my mother's side was a pastor so he settled in Bulawayo in Zimbabwe so they settled in Bulawayo from the early 1900 me I was born and raised in the UK speaking Zulu and Ndebele and generally I didn't hear the difference between the two languages.
Thank you for your comment
@ZuluWarrior Corrections:
amaNdebele (North & South)in SA are not Mzilikazi's group.
amaNdebele from Zim are not a Zulu offshoot, they are a Nguni splinter group.
How amaNdebele from Zim are viewed in South Africa is solely dependent on the relationship between themselves and the Nguni people in South Africa because Botswana and Lesotho have no such issues simply because themselves & Batswana and Basotho in South Africa have always maintained that we are family, despite the borders.
@@lebo5281 - CORRECTION, i beg to differ amaNdebele in Zimbabwe are offshoots of Zulus, ZULUS ARE NGUNI JUST LIKE SOTHO, XHOSA, TSWANA AS WELL AS MANY OTHER GROUPS THEY ALL FALL UNDER THE ”NGUNI UMBRELLA ” so Please don’t try to be slick.
Mzilikhazi was a general in Shaka’s army who fled with some followers with some spoils of war, fearing retaliation from Shaka, Mzilikhazi took his people conquering multiple tribes along the way eventually they settled in present day Zimbabwe as well as some parts of Zambia , he made his capital BULAWAYO.
The amaNdebele of Zimbabwe are very closely related to the Zulus in language, culture and history compared with the amaNdebele of South Africa.
When somebody speaks Ndebele from Bulawayo many say it sounds like they have a Johannesburg dialect.
Please my brother don’t try to be slick, my roots and ethnicity comes from both Zulu and Ndebele sides this history has been rammed down my throat since i was a child here in the UK.
@Azania Crypto All this shouting and you miss timelines. Learn timelines in your history and understand why uMzilikazi was from eMantungwini and Shaka's mom was Inkosazana yaseLangeni...I shouldn't have to teach you your own history my skat. 💜
@@lebo5281 - All this i am aware of my brother but nothing you have brought forward negates the facts that i am highlighting and that is MZILIKHAZI WAS ONE OF SHAKA’S GENERALS AND HE FLED FROM SHAKA WITH A BAND OF FOLLOWERS, EVENTUALLY SETTLING IN PRESENT DAY MATABELELAND AND HE MADE BULAWAYO HIS CAPITAL.
The amaNdebele or Bantu or Nguni group that Mzilikhazi brought with him from Kwazulu-Natal the vast majority of them still share close cultural, linguistic, heritage to the Zulu people in fact like i already intimated, they are direct cousins.
Ubhuti = brother , it is taken from Afrikaans "boet" .
The guy didn't have a wider perspective or experience in terms of the last part there with tribalism talk. We have come a very long way. We are together but we are still a young country recovering from the whites dividing us.
It's his POV
@@siphomnisi3842 I agree fully
@@Lihle100 tribalism ain't as extreme as other parts of Africa. You will literally find tribes intermarrying even in precolonial times. I literally have family members that speak a plethora of languages and we still love one another. I can however say it's the older gen that tends to say Tribalist things(eg Sothos use the same bowl used for bathing to wash dishes(they imply they are unhygienic). But yeah they young gen doesn't really care much about tribalism cuz they tend to vibe to the western world and speak English
Intelligent lady ❤
Tribalism is also a problem in our country. Zulus is well spoken but they are nit ruling anything. I don’t understand
Did he say we rule? genuine question before you jump at me. I was skipping other parts
❤
Sawubona,
How can I get in contact with you my dear. Cuz I have whatsapp.
Greetings! 😃 So glad to see you here! My Instagram is TheQueenKi89 where you can message me ✨🙏🏽💕
Kiara😊❤
Shaka never met white people but I get what his saying ( shaka Zulu contributed to changing the military style of the regiments)
& To say Zulu people are the only ones who fought white people is so disrespectful to the other clans - 😏
There are other history sources that claimed he did love… that’s just history for you… thank you for your comment. We take pieces of historical evidence and do the best we can with inferences ✨
Shaka met the coloniser and faught the coloniser wtf that’s Zulu History
@@lindelwanothandongcobo8863 Not true
@@TheQueenKiTravels I'm also shocked now when they say he didn't 😂😂😂😂. Imagine. Not so long ago they were saying whites fooled him with the chair thing and they took the land (which was also a lie) now he has never met them?? 🙄. Same Shaka who defeated them at iSandlwana.
The hate is actually against the Zulus not the other way around cause even overseas when one speaks of SA black people, they mention Zulus so maybe it's a form of jealousy 😂😂.
With that said there is a form of tribalism but very minor and banter like. No one has ever been killed cause they belong to a certain tribe like other countries, it's just a battle of who is more influential on the country sonto speak. Very silly and childish
@@ZomziWeAfrika 😹😹😹😹 google queen Elizabeth visiting the Zulu Royals you are a tribalist
Zulu are the only tribe that defeated british soldiers
Zulu is not the main language in south africa,most of us speak sotho,tswana or nothern sotho those are the language that dominates in south africa
Don’t lie most spoken languages are Nguni first Zulu then Xhosa which both are Ngunis. Don’t spread lies internationally.
Dominate??? hhaynke the lying now is unnecessary. Zulu dominates cause even other tribes speak it. Nguni languages infact
@@pmambongwe8640 Zulu does dominate. The reason is simply that it's EASY. You break, bend or corrupt it with other languages, and it still makes sense.Its very Communication friendly. Try that with the other languages and wow! (By the way I'm not zulu...thank God).
@@nomagcisacawe3297 Good for you. Wouldn't have it any other way mina
😹😹😹 liar the Zulu people are the most people in South Africa
Zulus are responsible for white people headaches since they landed in the cape not saying other tribes did not contribute it's just that Zulus stood their ground against The English and dutch and they also established the oldest political party in Africa nown as ANC most might disagree wich is ok ,but the truth remains the truth thank you my sister for your interest to one of your traditions much love
Lol. What a load of crap. Xhosa people are the ones that held them off for 100's of years. Whites only managed to confront the Zulu's in the 1800s. They arrived in 1600's, so the Xhosa's were fighting the white man for 200 years ALONE. Also ANC is not a ZULU party.. all of their prominent leaders, were Xhosa, but its a multi-tribal party. Stop spreading tribal supremacy. You also have a Hlubi, surname, so I don't know what you talking about.
Plz stop lying to your self and others especially to our brothers and sisters in America, if you knew the truth you know that the Ditch landed in the Cape in 1652, I don't deny that they came across the khoiso as well as Xhosa people, but the truth is the khoi and Xhosa did not go to war with them , instead they welcomed them with open arms cause the Dutch at the time were just a group of few man from just one baot plz stop lying to people, by the way Maduna last name originates from the Zulu nation the only reason you have this last name in Xhosa nation it's because of looking for greener pastures in the country then ended up establishing in those areas that's all
@@nkululekomaduna Let me help you with a little history. "The Xhosa Wars (also known as the Cape Frontier Wars, Anglo-Xhosa Wars[1]) were a series of nine wars (from 1779 to 1879) between the Xhosa Kingdom and the British Empire as well as Trekboers in what is now the Eastern Cape in South Africa. These events were the longest-running military action in the history of European colonialism in Africa.''
Xhosa people fought back the colonizer for 200years.
This is not true, infect colonizers invaded more of the khoi and xhosas. Xhosa's and Khoi fought more battles and they also lost many people than all of us
That’s not true and you damn well know it. We know who played a big role in our politics. We know who was killing the ANC and the Xhosa during apartheid. Speak the truth you won’t need to oversell yourself . White people are no threat in your culture .
🤣🤣🤣 Andile, you made a mistake. King Shaka is exactly the one king who never fought white colonists. There is divided opinion on whether he even met/saw whites.
Many Khoe from the Cape, southern Nguni speakers from whatnis the Eastern Cape now, Kings Dingana and Cetshwayo particularly, inkosi Bhambatha ka Mancinza, Batlokwa leaders lika Mmanthatise, Ndebele leaders like Nyabela, right to the Bapedi and other Northern Sotho leaders like Sekhukhune, Vhavenda like Makhado, all fought colonists, but never king Shaka. I'm sorry.
The Khoe were the first to resist and fight white colonists and then next were the Xhosa especially, because the colonists were expanding eastwards, so they met the groups that eventually became the AmaZulu (the Zulu state was only forming then) centuries later.
Thank you for your comment ✨💕🙏🏽
Teach let it be known
Lmao.
😹😹😹 Shaka met the British and defeated them it’s everywhere 2 months ago this year British soldiers were in KZN to confirm the victory of the Zulu’s at isandlwana mountains with King Misuzulu they also apologised and commemorated the late Zulu Warriors.The British royal family also brought back Zulu stuff that they took from them during the war led by King ShakaZulukasenzangakhona .Southern Africans are also part Khoisan and Definitely other parts of Africa to and that’s confirmed .The Khoisan’s were killed by white people sadly who knows why I see that you seem to hate Zulu people don’t forget that if you’re South African and Southern African we have one common ancestor that shows up in our ancestry dna it’s South eastern bantu who’s that that’s our ancestor so tribes don’t even count to me anymore and we always have Khoisan or another part of Africa that our other ancestors come from .
