A young black woman they interviewed had this to say:
Anyone just wakes up in the morning and decides that they're having problems in their own country. "Oh, let me look for greener pastures" and it's South Africa. And if we don't say anything about it or if we say something about it, we're told that it's black people. This is not a skin color thing. It's about us protecting our country, which is a sovereign state. We love our African brothers and sisters, but it's time now that they also fix their own countries for their own children and their own future. We're making it very clear to you guys, we don't want you here.

Irony. Forgetting the history of SA when they were the immigrants coming to the Burghers created greener pastures.
ReplyDeleteThe AOC has done such a wonderful job governing South Africa, it's a wonder there are greener pastures at all.
