Thanks Umlilo, heard. Similar stories.
Also heard that the inanda indian farmers also stood their ground and fought.

As much as africans were killing indians, I was told(remember am only 23 so am 100% ignorant to this events) many,many african families saved a lot of indian children and women, by housing em and mking sure they were safe. As well was told that many whites joined the africans in camoflage and attacked. Indians.

Such is our past as a nation, but what I can say now, as a South African 1st and then as a young indian born in the 90s is that as much as we will get some idiots talking out of turn saying this n that and threathening of the return of the riots. Our country has come way too far and we continue to learn to live united as 1.

I don't care what anyone says, but if I being 1 person can learn and continue to learn to love and put our NATION 1st, and 4gt abt skin colour,religion, beliefs-we can continue to grow.

Once again, thanks Umlilo

Yes Sheza

The Indian will always be the meat in the sandwich.

Even today... not black enough { where's the boot polish}.

I believe some of the crowd were demonstrating the "substitution" sign used in Soccer when Zuma reached the stage!!

Barack Obama is simply the best when it comes to speech. That USA president can speak. What a moving tribute to Madiba.
