before colonialization?  The name "South Africa" just seems so lazy and colonial.  Was there or is there now a more indigenous name for the area in the name of solidarity?

Greets family,

SA was called Azania, but with the ANC government, they didn't feel the need to change it back to that. They decided to carry on with things as the white government left them.

This is still a white country, whether we admit it or not.

JUST IMAGINE PRESIDENT MUGABE KNOWN AS A RHODESIAN OR KWAME NKRUMAH AS A GOLD COASTIAN. I FULLY AGREE WITH EMPRESS KENEILWE THAT SOUTH AFRICA IS STILL A WHITE COUNTRY MANAGED BY THE COLONISED AFRIKANS.
