See, this is the bias of black people: they think Africa MUST belong to black people only. This is racist and arrogance. Blacks own land in Europe. Blacks own land in America. Blacks have no problem with these facts. Reality: whites own land in Africa and this is Gods will. So go deal with God on this matter and stop this biased arrogance that some how a pease of Earth has a black skin color only. God said: go forth, multiply and cover the earth. He did NOT say: except for Africa, that is for the blacks only.
Your report of your South African experience was very respectable. You are not judging us and telling us how to be. I am tired of other African and American youtubers gaslighting us.Thank you
All of this ⬆️. Like stay away from our country if you voing act superior here and you cant even do the 101 things you want South Africans to do. They are exhausting shame.🙄
I enjoyed listening to your perspectives and your experiences in SA.. I was expecting the typical touristy talk but i enjoyed your honesty. We would live to have you back
From a South African, you have given objective comments. True we dont know much about the wars in the continent. Actually TH-cam content creators are quite helpful with our knowledge of the . You are appreciated.
I want to tell you truth no Genocide in Ethiopia she is talking fake information about Ethiopia to rushi Ethiopia image .Ethiopia means peaceful well developed and Proud Nation you tubers they are talking shitte.
She’s spreading a false propaganda since she’s half breed of Eritrea. No Genocide took place in Ethiopia. The war that took place in 2020 was a result of her region wanting to stay in power of the Ethiopian government, which they lost big time. Please don’t listen to her. Ethiopia is a Christian and peaceful Muslims country. Whatever she try to paint on Ethiopia is not going to change the facts. God bless Ethiopia 🇪🇹

@@planB-BacktoAfricaabout Orania, I as a black SAn, I don't care abt it, but I care abt black leadership/gov that have a direct effect on my life and the price of things + opportunities. Lots of African countries have black leadership but are in disarray! Do they love their ppl? No!!! Yet Africans love using Orania as a got you point etc. White men isn't a black man's problem but i black person in power has wilded so much pain and hardship on another black person! A lot of basic essentials that we used to have in SA and took for granted are gone under Black leadership. So let those whites isolate themselves and create their own haven!
Maybe it’s just ignorance by some, but we know about the conflicts on the continent. From Sudan, Ethiopia (Tigray), DRC (M23 Rebels), Boko Haram in Nigeria and Cabo Delgado in Mozambique.
Orania should not exist at all. The stupid politicians of South Africa are not ashamed to have allowed this to happen. For sure, it is a culture shock. I speak to many ANC friends, and they say the whites are not their problems. I laughed. Truly slowly, the whites will rule again. Especially in South Africa.
This made me emotional because, for the first time, I'm appreciating my country at a totally different level. Yes, it has its bad but also has its good, and that is why the white South Africans have a hard time emigrating, when they also could. Ours is a beautiful country.
Our South African media tends to focus on selective information, often neglecting coverage of conflicts in other African countries like Ethiopian war. We are more exposed to news from the West due to international investors in South Africa. It would be valuable for us to see more coverage of events in your country on social media platforms😇
I agree. It is not just in SA. This strategy is applied throughout the continent. The media spreads lies and propaganda faster than the truth and have effectively maintained division through selectively showcasing or hiding news across Africa. One has to either travel or watch TH-cam to learn more about other African countries, while minor wars in Western countries get the most coverage.
I was aware of the war in Ethiopia as well as the peace summit we hosted here. I love this continent and its people so, knowing our media focuses on SA news, especially politics as well as the West (Europe and the USA), I make a concerted effort to draw information from multiple news sources so as to stay better informed. I pay close attention to the goings on at the UNGA and UNSC - only way to get the truth. Our media (including the "no fear, no favour" Daily Maverick) is heavily tilted towards whatever the US propaganda angle is - no does propaganda like the USA! I hope the rest of Africa takes the lesson from our elections, put their people first and put an end to tyrannical rulers and their bloodthirsty quest for power (we've our menace in Zuma - my mother is Zulu and he thankfully does not enjoy the support of all Zulus). Africa needs peace. Africa needs prosperity. If we can finally turn our country around with the GNU, perhaps we can become the beacon of hope for the people of the continent to strive to achieve in every country across the continent. ✌🏽☮️ 🕊
Most African countries do not promote media freedom or free speech like in SA. Zimbabwe blames SA media for its economy. Africa is a sensitive continent any misinformation can start a conflict, like when Omar Albashir visited SA, a war almost broke out between SA and Sudan infact the embassy of SA and SA soldiers were surrounded in Sudan Its best to solve things through deplomacy in Africa not media.

With that being said, for most of the video I was just dazzled by your beauty.

Thank you for such good insight and propective of our Beautiful South Africa. As a South African who has traveled to a lot of African and Overseas Countries most of our people do not how lucky we are.Yes there is crime and corruption hopefully this be sorted out in the near future. THANK YOU. 😊
Because you do research. They don't just display it on the media ,you have to really search for you to find things about the wars in drc or the rebel problem in Mozambique and war in Sudan and Ethiopia.
I do too but you have to stop watching local TV or CNN. When they do have a story it is so small and then our disasters overtake outside events and then the rest of the world is pushed aside.
This video was something I just happened upon, and enjoyed it immensely! Thank you for sharing all of your culture shocks. I learned a lot in a few minutes. The wars in Africa are not covered well in the USA. Sometimes we get a glimpse of BBC-Focus on Africa daily, but Ethiopia is rarely covered. So thank you for your insights. I will dig deeper on my own.
I agree absolutely about Orania. I am a white Afrikaner from South Africa, and I severely dislike the existence of that place. I would prefer it if they bought an island offshore and just move there, out of our beautiful South Africa. This nation is for all people together. If you do not want to tolerate other people, just go away. Just my personal opinion.
You are the first Afrikaner who agrees that this mindset is wrong and I’m glad to see there are still people like you out there who are willing to embrace unity in diversity instead of accusing me of reverse racism.
@planB-BacktoAfrica , I may just be the first you have met or heard from. There are many of us who do not like that place. People may not say it, but there won't be that many people that will mourn if that place comes to an end.
They will not last long because the Germans tried the samething in Jamaica and inbreeding caused the community to collapse and they had to start integrating with the locals.
It is my first time watching a video from you, loved it! Will definitely subscribe. Interestingly, when I lived abroad in the UAE many Ethiopians thought that I was Ethiopian. I still need to visit there one day....to see my people! I just love seeing my country through the eyes of visitors! Enjoyed your perspective.
The ones you met don't know about Africa current affairs but most South Africans are well informed about Africa due to some African countries hosting those who were in exile from South Africa. Great channel.🤙👌🏽
I tend to disagree. I feel most South Africans have no exposure to other African coubtries hence their views may not be well informed. Those who are well travelled and educated are a small fraction.
❤ I love your content, Weyni. You are not afraid to travel and speak the truth. Keep them coming! I am an African American, and I am learning so much from you. When are you going to visit the USA, especially Houston, Texas? We will welcome you here.🙏🏿♥️
Great content and objective. You did a lot of driving 😮 tried going to Namibia got tired within an hour and and turned towards the west coast and then drove back home😂😂😂
The civil wars in Africa were terrible. In Nigeria there had been a war in the southern province in the sixties. Several million died. In Soudan as well. In Ruanda about a million dead in 1995. It's sad. But compared with Europe, the African independence runs much quicker! And better.
Voting should be as peaceful as South Africa in the rest of the Africa. There's no need to fight. These countries belong to us as well as those greedy politicians
It is sad that Africans are so much more interested in the war in Gaza than that in Sudan. Even in Nigeria a country that had to evacuate hundreds of it's citizens (if not thousands) there is so much interest and anger for the starving children of Gaza yet none for the dying emaciated children of Sudan.
@elsabishop7669, Africans are interested in wars everywhere because one way or the other, the wars affect us all. With respect to South Africa specifically, there is also a Palestinian/South African ties going back to the apartheid regime...and our Muslim society are an integral part of your society.
There is a big difference. Sudanese refugees are being housed and accepted into neighbouring African countries. The African Union is having endless talks with both sides who are at war in Sudan. However Gaza and West Bank are facing the worst genocide supported by Western powers - they are powerless women and children that cannot scape European, British and American bombs.
That’s not what I said, stop making up nonsense. As a Somalian who went through civil war as a child, I know the horrors of a war. It’s terrible what is happening in Sudan but at least they have a way out compared to the concentration camps of Gaza and West Bank. Sudanese children can dream of better Sudan but Gazan children have no hope left as they face the mighty of world’s superpowers ethnic cleansing the endogenous people. Like I said, African leaders are lending their hand to help Sudan and are working on a peaceful solution. We raised millions in the Islamic communities where ‘Islamic Relief’ charity helps Sudanese children. Unfortunately Israel does not allow any charity to help Palestinians as they use starvation as a method of genocide. I hope you’re not a Zionist using this platform to start “what aboutism “ bs!
As a white south African I grew up thinking Oranya was weird and they shouldn't have a only white people's place. But I'm glad that they haven't been harmed in anyway.
Loved your presentation...it's so refreshing to get such a well thought out and measured outsider's perspective. 👏🏾 👌🏾 True, we're not paying a lot of attention to the brutal wars and intractable conflicts taking place on the continent, as much as we're preoccupied with other situations of conflict elsewhere at the moment. It's a shame that after such progress with continental governance and multilateral institutional frameworks, we still have such carnage, ethnic cleansing, massacres, and genocides against our beautiful African people. My country has been at the forefront of peace work and enforcement in Africa - having committed a lot of money to these efforts...the same can be said regarding its contributions to sparking the work initiatives on the African Renaissance project. For Africa to defeat these despotic leaders and overcome conflict and death, it will require mobilization of our people across nation-states...including dealing decisively with the enslavement of black people in North Africa and West Asia, tackle human trafficking and other exploitations that are grotesque, debasing and a threat to life and security for Africans. To be on the record, I am totally opposed to the idea of Orania. I am one among many South Africans who believe it's an extra-constituonal arrangement that's likely to present national security problems in the future. White people are homeless even in Europe and North America - it's not a unique feature to South Africa that this is made to be. Industrial urban environments have this feature of homelessness in many countries.
"To be on the record, I am totally opposed to the idea of Orania. I am one among many South Africans who believe it's an extra-constituonal arrangement that's likely to present national security problems in the future." This is very very important!!!!!!
She mentioned that homeless white people are unique to South Africa on the 'African Continent'. It's common knowledge that Europe and North America has homeless white people.
I thought Orania accepted people of different races provided that they are Afrikaans speaking. We are ex South Africans, now living in New Zealand and we are English speaking. Part of my heritage is Afrikaans and some of my S A ancestors go back to 1700s, we may not qualify to live in Orania. We probably wouldn't want to. The cultures are very varied in SA and they have gone a long way towards learning to accept each other and live in peace. The rest of the world can learn a lot from them. Your honest perspective is much appreciated.
Orania ....they are not bothering anyone . there were a couple of black rural leaders who visited the town to get advice and see how they are running the place to takethat back to their villages . these people are not a burden on the government . and maybe others can learn from them . white people are south African too the English and the afrikaaners . so I don't know why you so shocked .
The Anc despite its failures is faar better than most African politicians and when I travel outside SA I appreciate them more cosbin SA we are free to criticize government and nothing will happen to you can't say the same for most African countries
I thinkbthepress like CNN Sky didn't do justice in covering the tension in Ethiopia as compared to Ukraine lsrael Russia..because of the west influence..USA Britain...that it why it was not so well known
@@rafaelw8115you are talking absolute rubbish. Sandton had 3 buildings when ANC took over, today it is the richest square mile in Africa. Waterfall city did not exist in 1994. Our freeways only had two lanes in both directions now it 6 lanes. Gautrain did not exist. The infrastructure during apartheid could only cater for 20% of the population. Now it cater for everyone. 90% of malls existing now in SA was build after apartheid. On top of that, 70% of all malls in the whole of Africa are in South Africa. Millions of free houses build for South Africans. So once again stop talking rubbish about shit you know nothing about.
Nonsense! ANC is an insult to our Africanism and a liability to our economic progress and development as Africans. We are still landless, economically enslaved and politically controlled and dictated by European colonial settlers in our own land.
You are absolutely right-many South Africans are unaware of the genocide in Ethiopia. I was informed through alternative platforms like TH-cam, as mainstream media tends to either underreport or overlook such issues. This realization has motivated me to pay closer attention to events across the African continent, especially those affecting our home Africa.
My son informed me about the war in the North of Ethiopia, he has a passion for world politics. I did not realise how many people have died though. It is shocking! I'm South African.😊
Thanks for your video, regarding the war in Ethiopia, it could be that our media may be hiding it from us, but it is sad that we are completely unaware, I was until I saw your video
That was beautiful. I am one of those white South Africans. Interesting perspectives. Sorry about all the deaths in your country, I was aware of it, I love Ethiopia, looked up to Gabriel Haile Selassie, in the days of my youth, as I was a runner.
Towns in SA where only black people live: Sterkspruit, Seymor, Mount Fletcher, Lady Frere, Willowvale, Libode, Butterworth, Cala (Eastern Cape). In KZN Pomeroy, Nqutu, Tholeni, Impendle, Izingolweni, Bizana, Umzinkulu, Ulundi (a whole city). Highflats and Umzinto in KZN only black people and Indian people, no whites. These are not suburbs, but towns. Dont tell me you didn’t know! There are more, but these are the ones I have visited or drove through.
What a refreshing video and interesting perspective on my country. I honestly didn't know about the war in Ethiopia. I just heard about the Italians who tried to invade many centuries ago. You are So beautiful by-the-way. Ethiopian women are definitely some of the most beautiful in the world.😊
UuMuntu...Motho....Siyabonga Kakhulu Dadewethu. Very Objective. There are few of us who know exactly what is happening in Ethiopia from Ancient time until now....Siyakuthanda 😊
Im totally aware of the Tigrayan genocide as a South African living in Kenya and I have lives in Ghana West Africa so unfortunately you haven't met an informed South African and Iranian is over exaggerated it was a deal buying a small piece of land and decided to live separately it's really just a private arrangements and it's not affecting the rest of us, so let them be , we are the most democratic and peaceful country in the continent
Orania has not a rule that only whites should stay there. It just happened because of the association. Soweto is just black and no whites, and that does not shock you. Unfair. Some towns are just portuguese and no one complains about that.
This is so stupid and pathetic.Soweto is a creation of apartheid that threw black people while the colonisers were given prime real estate.Orania was created as a reaction to the fall of apartheid in oder to create a white only enclave.White people are not denied a chance to live in Soweto, they have no interest as they live in superior areas.
I agree with all your points but especially with shock number 4. South Africans know very little about what’s happen on the African continent but seems to know everything about what’s happening around the world
@@meganchoi9097 its my opinion, which I am entitled to. Not interested in Orania at the least. Luckily most South Africans are not interested as well. Peace to you.
You know the crazy thing as a South African,i m pretty updated about my current affairs,and its the first time im hearing about the war in Ethiopia..its sad realy
Honestly, I think Ethiopian media is closed to the world, I am also shocked by the number you are reporting about Ethiopia 😢. Thank you for sharing your honest report about South Africa.
The reason that not many South Africans know about the wars in Africa is due to news and media coverage. News agencies have decided that those stories don't get as much attention, apparently.
"This continent is not overpopulated, maybe this continent is over-exploited." That right there is the truth. Good point.

Great content and objective. You did a lot of driving 😮 tried going to Namibia got tired within an hour and and turned towards the west coast and then drove back home😂😂😂
The civil wars in Africa were terrible. In Nigeria there had been a war in the southern province in the sixties. Several million died. In Soudan as well. In Ruanda about a million dead in 1995. It's sad. But compared with Europe, the African independence runs much quicker! And better.
Great video though♥️
BTW great channel looking for more content, and more about your country.❤
Awesome! Thank you!
You are a smart woman, brilliant! You have my support and I want you to live in South Africa and I would support you
Voting should be as peaceful as South Africa in the rest of the Africa. There's no need to fight. These countries belong to us as well as those greedy politicians
Great video
It is sad that Africans are so much more interested in the war in Gaza than that in Sudan. Even in Nigeria a country that had to evacuate hundreds of it's citizens (if not thousands) there is so much interest and anger for the starving children of Gaza yet none for the dying emaciated children of Sudan.
@elsabishop7669, Africans are interested in wars everywhere because one way or the other, the wars affect us all. With respect to South Africa specifically, there is also a Palestinian/South African ties going back to the apartheid regime...and our Muslim society are an integral part of your society.
There is a big difference. Sudanese refugees are being housed and accepted into neighbouring African countries. The African Union is having endless talks with both sides who are at war in Sudan. However Gaza and West Bank are facing the worst genocide supported by Western powers - they are powerless women and children that cannot scape European, British and American bombs.
@Nimanada you're saying Sudanese children who are starving, emaciated and dying are worth less to us Africans than those in Gaza. I'm truly appalled
That’s not what I said, stop making up nonsense. As a Somalian who went through civil war as a child, I know the horrors of a war. It’s terrible what is happening in Sudan but at least they have a way out compared to the concentration camps of Gaza and West Bank. Sudanese children can dream of better Sudan but Gazan children have no hope left as they face the mighty of world’s superpowers ethnic cleansing the endogenous people. Like I said, African leaders are lending their hand to help Sudan and are working on a peaceful solution. We raised millions in the Islamic communities where ‘Islamic Relief’ charity helps Sudanese children. Unfortunately Israel does not allow any charity to help Palestinians as they use starvation as a method of genocide. I hope you’re not a Zionist using this platform to start “what aboutism “ bs!
@@Nimanada I do not see the level of emaciated children in Gaza as are in Sudan. Nor do I see the level of concern for Sudan as is shown for Gaza.
as a South African i cannot go a day without watching AMN online, love Africa and all its people. i need me a Macheda like yourself 😜
As a white south African I grew up thinking Oranya was weird and they shouldn't have a only white people's place. But I'm glad that they haven't been harmed in anyway.
Love this Video! Fair and objective. Sad for what is happening in Ethiopia The great 😢
Lots of open space in South Africa. Not a lot of water and not a lot of rainfall over huge proportion of SA. Beautiful blue sky every day
Very insightful. 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow I didn’t know about the war in Ethiopia. I will research. I enjoyed this . Love from South Africa ❤
Thanks a lot. Sending love to SA 🇿🇦❤️
but Floyd and Mbuyesi from the EFF were talking about this.
We will love to have you here sister❤
I hope to see you in the Island soon
Loved your presentation...it's so refreshing to get such a well thought out and measured outsider's perspective. 👏🏾 👌🏾
True, we're not paying a lot of attention to the brutal wars and intractable conflicts taking place on the continent, as much as we're preoccupied with other situations of conflict elsewhere at the moment. It's a shame that after such progress with continental governance and multilateral institutional frameworks, we still have such carnage, ethnic cleansing, massacres, and genocides against our beautiful African people.
My country has been at the forefront of peace work and enforcement in Africa - having committed a lot of money to these efforts...the same can be said regarding its contributions to sparking the work initiatives on the African Renaissance project.
For Africa to defeat these despotic leaders and overcome conflict and death, it will require mobilization of our people across nation-states...including dealing decisively with the enslavement of black people in North Africa and West Asia, tackle human trafficking and other exploitations that are grotesque, debasing and a threat to life and security for Africans.
To be on the record, I am totally opposed to the idea of Orania. I am one among many South Africans who believe it's an extra-constituonal arrangement that's likely to present national security problems in the future.
White people are homeless even in Europe and North America - it's not a unique feature to South Africa that this is made to be. Industrial urban environments have this feature of homelessness in many countries.
"To be on the record, I am totally opposed to the idea of Orania. I am one among many South Africans who believe it's an extra-constituonal arrangement that's likely to present national security problems in the future." This is very very important!!!!!!
She mentioned that homeless white people are unique to South Africa on the 'African Continent'. It's common knowledge that Europe and North America has homeless white people.
I am SA, and it was good to hear your perspective on our country, being a visitor. I think as SAs we are always our own worse critics.
Thank you.❤🎉
I’ve seriously never heard about what happened in Ethiopia…. And it’s wild
I thought Orania accepted people of different races provided that they are Afrikaans speaking. We are ex South Africans, now living in New Zealand and we are English speaking. Part of my heritage is Afrikaans and some of my S A ancestors go back to 1700s, we may not qualify to live in Orania. We probably wouldn't want to. The cultures are very varied in SA and they have gone a long way towards learning to accept each other and live in peace. The rest of the world can learn a lot from them. Your honest perspective is much appreciated.
Ex South-African?? Wtf is that 😂😂
Orania ....they are not bothering anyone . there were a couple of black rural leaders who visited the town to get advice and see how they are running the place to takethat back to their villages . these people are not a burden on the government . and maybe others can learn from them . white people are south African too the English and the afrikaaners . so I don't know why you so shocked .
Thanks for saying that, Whites who are born in South Africa are African too.
I also never heard about that war in Ethiopia
Me too🤦🏿 I know about Sudan
Guys there is no war in Ethiopia her false information
The Anc despite its failures is faar better than most African politicians and when I travel outside SA I appreciate them more cosbin SA we are free to criticize government and nothing will happen to you can't say the same for most African countries
I agree. I was so impressed by how they accepted the defeat and decision of the people 🙏🏾
@@planB-BacktoAfrica No, Ramphosas ANC is far better, if Jacob Zuma was in charge of the ANC, we would be in chaos
I thinkbthepress like CNN Sky didn't do justice in covering the tension in Ethiopia as compared to Ukraine lsrael Russia..because of the west influence..USA Britain...that it why it was not so well known
@@rafaelw8115you are talking absolute rubbish. Sandton had 3 buildings when ANC took over, today it is the richest square mile in Africa. Waterfall city did not exist in 1994. Our freeways only had two lanes in both directions now it 6 lanes. Gautrain did not exist. The infrastructure during apartheid could only cater for 20% of the population. Now it cater for everyone. 90% of malls existing now in SA was build after apartheid. On top of that, 70% of all malls in the whole of Africa are in South Africa. Millions of free houses build for South Africans. So once again stop talking rubbish about shit you know nothing about.
Nonsense! ANC is an insult to our Africanism and a liability to our economic progress and development as Africans. We are still landless, economically enslaved and politically controlled and dictated by European colonial settlers in our own land.
subscribed!
You are absolutely right-many South Africans are unaware of the genocide in Ethiopia. I was informed through alternative platforms like TH-cam, as mainstream media tends to either underreport or overlook such issues. This realization has motivated me to pay closer attention to events across the African continent, especially those affecting our home Africa.
Spot on sis, coming from a South African
I am a South African, I respect you my sister. You love your continent Africa. You are most welcome back to South Africa more so from now.
My son informed me about the war in the North of Ethiopia, he has a passion for world politics. I did not realise how many people have died though. It is shocking! I'm South African.😊
Only now I learnt about genocide in Ethopia
Please come back and stay for good, we appreciate your view and thoughts abt our country❤
Thanks for your video, regarding the war in Ethiopia, it could be that our media may be hiding it from us, but it is sad that we are completely unaware, I was until I saw your video
Come again my sister. I hope you will keep enjoying our country all the time.
That was beautiful. I am one of those white South Africans. Interesting perspectives. Sorry about all the deaths in your country, I was aware of it, I love Ethiopia, looked up to Gabriel Haile Selassie, in the days of my youth, as I was a runner.
I'd actually like to go to Orania.....just to see if il have a certain feeling, yazi.....😩
Towns in SA where only black people live: Sterkspruit, Seymor, Mount Fletcher, Lady Frere, Willowvale, Libode, Butterworth, Cala (Eastern Cape). In KZN Pomeroy, Nqutu, Tholeni, Impendle, Izingolweni, Bizana, Umzinkulu, Ulundi (a whole city). Highflats and Umzinto in KZN only black people and Indian people, no whites. These are not suburbs, but towns. Dont tell me you didn’t know! There are more, but these are the ones I have visited or drove through.
Yoh, Orania does not represent Afrikaans white people - it's a radical group. We also think they are hectic
What a refreshing video and interesting perspective on my country. I honestly didn't know about the war in Ethiopia. I just heard about the Italians who tried to invade many centuries ago. You are So beautiful by-the-way. Ethiopian women are definitely some of the most beautiful in the world.😊
You looking amazing ❤
UuMuntu...Motho....Siyabonga Kakhulu Dadewethu. Very Objective. There are few of us who know exactly what is happening in Ethiopia from Ancient time until now....Siyakuthanda 😊
Im totally aware of the Tigrayan genocide as a South African living in Kenya and I have lives in Ghana West Africa so unfortunately you haven't met an informed South African and Iranian is over exaggerated it was a deal buying a small piece of land and decided to live separately it's really just a private arrangements and it's not affecting the rest of us, so let them be , we are the most democratic and peaceful country in the continent
How do you insure yourself wether it was a " Genocide " in Tigray ? . I think you know what the term " Genocide " mean or ??
Nice to hear that you were impressed by our election.
Orania has not a rule that only whites should stay there. It just happened because of the association. Soweto is just black and no whites, and that does not shock you. Unfair. Some towns are just portuguese and no one complains about that.
This is so stupid and pathetic.Soweto is a creation of apartheid that threw black people while the colonisers were given prime real estate.Orania was created as a reaction to the fall of apartheid in oder to create a white only enclave.White people are not denied a chance to live in Soweto, they have no interest as they live in superior areas.
You are definitely such a lovely decent lady, keep it up!
I agree with all your points but especially with shock number 4. South Africans know very little about what’s happen on the African continent but seems to know everything about what’s happening around the world
The South Africans around you my guy. In a country of 60 million people, please never generalise about your experience as if we're all part of it.
I am South Africa amd cannot agree woth you more anout Orania! There is no justification for it.
Well that's just fine, since its existence isn't reliant on your justification.
@@meganchoi9097 its my opinion, which I am entitled to. Not interested in Orania at the least. Luckily most South Africans are not interested as well. Peace to you.
You know the crazy thing as a South African,i m pretty updated about my current affairs,and its the first time im hearing about the war in Ethiopia..its sad realy
Honestly, I think Ethiopian media is closed to the world, I am also shocked by the number you are reporting about Ethiopia 😢. Thank you for sharing your honest report about South Africa.
that was nice video
The reason that not many South Africans know about the wars in Africa is due to news and media coverage. News agencies have decided that those stories don't get as much attention, apparently.
