Hi Spider,long time no see. If you're ever in south Africa,that bbq is still waiting btw
What i would love to see are programmes in schools actively encouraging black youth to consider farming. It is a very dangerous profession for whites,so i doubt many white youth would be interested,but i don't see why the government should not invest heavily in producing generations of successful black farmers. In fact,to not do so,is imo,dangerously shortsighted.

We are discussing South African citizens. Why are you going off topic? Your claim was Africa is not white, so it's ok to steal from white people.

Do you think it is acceptable to take the farms off of the white people there?
Africa isn't "white".
How come Africa is so resource rich and yet so poor?
Then europe and america are not 'black' .. so we can steal everything they own and you agree with it. thanks.
What? America and Europe don't have much natural resources, they steal it form others. 'Democratically' , of course.
You think we'd be in Iraq if their primary crop was Broccoli?

This is a ridiculous comment. I am a white South African. Both my parents were born here. All my Grand parents were born here. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Why should I be made to suffer for a regime NONE of my ancestors agreed with or supported? Why should land that my parents worked hard to acquire be gifted to someone else because of the colour of their skin.
You Americans know # all about the issues in South Africa.

HARARE, Zimbabwe — When Tracy Mutinhiri struggled to get her tobacco crop to grow, she turned to some of the country’s most experienced farmers for help.
There was only one complication: They were white.
...
President Robert Mugabe has warned that forging ties with white farmers is a step backward. He initially won fame as a guerrilla fighter against white minority rule, which ended with Zimbabwe’s independence in 1980.
“We can’t have another war to liberate a country we have already liberated,” Mugabe said last month, speaking about the increasing number of white farmers now advising or managing black-owned farms.
...
Driving around Zimbabwe today, it’s hard to miss the acres of farmland lying fallow. In 1997, the country’s economy was among the strongest on the continent. This year, its growth rate is predicted to be 1.5 percent, according to the government, lower than that of any of its neighbors. Between 2000 and 2009, agricultural revenue declined by $12 billion, according to the commercial farmers’ union. The nation, once called “the breadbasket of Africa,” relies on international aid to feed 25 percent of its population, according to the World Food Program.
Oh I see, you're thick enough to believe that the sins of the father must be visited upon the son.

I won't post the gruesome pictures of the slaughter but up until 2015 over 70,000 whites have been murdered in SA in some truly horrific ways.
