hey grant .. i'm a bit late to add to this but oh well. I agree that is sad that white farmers are being kicked out.. yeah the land may have been taken wrongly but there has to be a limit on when you can reclaim usurped land. Like how most crimes have a statute of limitations.
I believe that Its far too late to start taking this land away.. maybe the leader of south Africa was inspired by the exodus of Israelis from Gaza. but Israel had only been in control of Gaza for something like 33 years.
and what's the government going to do with the reclaimed lan d ? just give it away to the public ? i highly doubt that. This is Racial discrimination at its finest.
Also i'm not a big fan of the Term "African American". Id get so annoyed with filling out forms in America. I may be black but im not fucking African !! also im not American.. lol when i describe myself i ALWAYS put "other".
i dont understand why they cant put black, or negro ( i guess negro sounds too much like nigger). I have no idea why american blacks need to identify themselves with africa soo badly. Despite all the talk and the profiling, Ive never met a SINGLE black american that would willingly give up his american rights and freedom and move back to Africa.
Ah well these are just the views of a non american black male.
