    You are observant glad you see a pattern to how south Africa do things theres always a reason behind... first you asked about mogudu- black 'dirty' tripe that's just how we like it has been like that before we were born, personally i think it's more tastier.. i discussed this with my Indian colleagues they like the 'washed/white' what's nice about South Africa there are options and you are free to choose what works best for you.. so on tripe it's a common thing in the Southern Africa you can travel to Namibia, Botswana, Swaziland, Zim and Moz all our sister countries when you travel that's what you will find.
    Black Africans liking to walk/track right let me take you back when whites arrived in SA the fact that you see Townships with blacks only, it was as a result of segregation laws blacks were moved from the lands of their ancestors.. the cities and suburbs that you see now at some point they were not allowed to set foot except when they come to work and go back to where the Apartheid system built them houses you now know as townships, note i am not talking about rural/farm areas but TOWNSHIPS here. The segregation was such that there were black only townships, coloured only townships and Indian only townships guess what of all the groups blacks were at the bottom in everything. There were and still are industrial areas where businesses and manufacturing takes place those areas, they hire lots and lots of blacks . Although there was a system of transportation buses, rail and cabs back in the days, it was normal to see people walking from the townships to those industrial areas to work.. because of the types of questions like this, i would suggest you take time and go to museums, libraries and art and cultural centres for history lessons you will discover a lot and have more understanding of how some of the things are the way they are.. One Nigerian vlogger who is based here had a video and she mentioned something without realizing her lack of understanding the history of this country, her parents came to visit her family here in SA and she said her mother was suprised how blacks and white live separate she thought it would be like in the America or Europe. Had she first had historical background or question from South Africans instead of coming with assumptions it would have made perfect sense why things are the way they are.
    You asked about parliamentarians well on that i think it's their way of exercising their democratic rights it doesn't mean it right though, but hey 🤷🏽‍♀️ it is the way it is..
    Songs and dance nation South Africa is a singing and dancing nation from back in the days from traditional, classic, pop,contemporary google about history of music.. if possible watch SERAFINA during struggle days music was giving our music hope, when the railroad network was built by our people at the background was our blacks people singing during the hardest days to pass time our fathers, brothers would go in the deepest part of the earth in the mines in all these areas one thing was and is still uniting them music they will sing together. It made the pain they were feeling and how they were treated bearable. I always say no one understands South Africans because no one has walked our walk, I've just realized just as African Americans starting coming to South Africa that are the only people who understand us and i am not saying that to disrespect anyone but the history we have understand each other better than the rest of others
    South Africa is just South Africa not like any other country, we have our way of doing things, that may not necessarily make sense to others but to us they do. Research, try watch old SA television or programs you may pick along where or how things are practiced...

    The song and dance is actually a learning curve for me, I actually thought all Africans in the continent had the same thing. I think for South Africans traditionally we have a song and dance method taken from our historical cultures where song and dance was a way of telling stories and communicating with people whom weren't of our tribes language and culture. This was kept and practiced even apartheid times and now carried into the current South Africa. So we naturally are in tune like that. Oh yes I walk 3kms a day as a must, learnt it from my grandparents too. We use to live far from services, towns and schools, walking was the only way to these places and somehow we still walk long distance because its in our genes. In big cities though we don't like getting parking fines and hence choose walking over parking problems

    I'm not sure were you bought your tripe, but like chicken feet some stores will sell the clean and unclean chicken feet. The cleaned feet would have the yellow skin lining intact and the clean would mean it's peeled-off. Now with tripe, you can still buy both the "black" and the "white" (cleaned and not cleaned). The cleaned one would usually cost a bit more than the non-clean. The "white would usually be Lamb or Goat tribe and the "black" would be cow tripe(I'm not sure if it's the first or second stomach). I mean, some stores sell diced butternut and so much. Otherwise, in this country, we eat the whole cow, head-to-toe.

    About clean and black tripe, when we slaughter a goat, sheep or cow we have what we call (ukuFukutha) in isiXhosa that means u eat the netted look like tripe uncooked or roasted mostly by men in the kraal we sprinkle a bile, we preserve the fresh animal taste or flavour some put it on fire but most do not, doing tht its a culture. Same thing when cooking it people make sure that they clean it to certain extent but still wanna keep the flavour, the thorough cleaning somehow almost all the flavour is gone in which some people like it very clean, so it depends on how u grew up used to.

    Walking long distance:
    I would say, Yes there’s a link to history. I want to make an example about the province where you are currently living in (Kwa-Zulu Natal/KZN). There was a King Known as “Shaka” and his predecessors as such. People were without any form of transportation, so moving from one point to another by foot was quite an ideal situation, they had no choice. The Kings were explorers and had to acquire land, so in doing so, they had to move and cover such a long distance along with their followers or people in general. There was a time when the King had to send one of the Chiefs for an errand from KZN to Bulawayo in Zimbabwe, and he had to track. He travelled as if he is just going to buy something to a spaza shop, I mean he never felt the distance even if it was a trip that will cover some days. The Chief went to Bulawayo and came back few days later. So tracking is in our DNA, we can travel by foot for miles, we don’t care. I guess that’s part of the lineage, we took it after our ancestors.
    In addition, I don’t want to repeat what my fellow SA indicated in one of the comments, he put it nicely, I just add into what he said, I hope you will understand.
    Song & dance in every situation
    I would say that’s part of the package of being gifted, can’t explain it further than I did in the 1st part of the video. It is part of our DNA, in every situation we sing & dance, and apply the correct and appropriate moves that fits the situation, not just any move. The value that music and dancing has in our lives as S Africans is magnificent, like, again my fellow commentator has also indicated, it’s not easy to explain this to a foreign person because it requires one to have an experience of it and the background (knowing it by experiencing it, NOT being told)

    Lobola Blankets to cover the bride
    That is part of the culture, not only the blanket, but also in some certain tribes, the bride will be expected to were specific clothes as well, like the Ndebele tribe, they were certain valuable bits and more.
    Point of order, very dramatic situations in parliament
    Politicians are very deceptive in nature, they always play poli-tricks, manipulate people unto their advantage, therefore as we have elected the candidates into parliament, we expect them to fight for what we are expecting from the government, (those who are ruling). So if you will be soft, you will not win your point to your advantage. Remember they are elected by us (the public) to be our voice in bringing the government into account since we cannot all be in parliament.
    The fighting and struggle that you see is because of standing firm in bringing the government into account.
    All the party elected candidates in the parliament have a role to play in making sure that they deliver what they were expected to do as the public mouthpiece. So this drama and chaos is fuelled by defences and putting forward of one’s point, especially when one has to account.
    Unfortunately, in other African countries, parliament is just formalities, not a place of real accountability. One cannot stand and accuse OR criticize the President or any Ministerial officer, you only do so because you have already signed your death warrant!! You don’t care what will happen to you.

    As for walking long distance it's therapeutic, sometimes i leave my car to think deep by taking a walk
    Then dancing part well its how we are whether present day SA ,apartheid SA, or Zulus going to war during Shaka era it psyche us up, so i think dancing is just in our DNA
    Blanket part symbolises from girl to woman , motherhood, and maturity too

When I teach my friends from other countries I tell them of mangos, some eat mango with the mango skin and others prefer it without.

    Good content. Curiosity makes us learn each other’s cultures & lifestyles If it’s done respectfully then it’s a good thing, like you did. I also have many “why’s” about Nigeria
    1) Why do you guys like wearing sandals every time?
    2) I see Nigeria is full of market places selling food. How sure are you guys of the cleanliness and hygiene of food sold there, especially meat because it’s so sensitive? The meat sometimes has flies on it. Doesn’t Nigeria have municipal by laws & health inspectors to regulate food marketplaces?
    3) There is over 500 native languages in Nigeria. Does it mean an average Nigerian has to be fluent in most of them?
    4) Why employ a gate men in residential houses, when there is electric gates, CCTV cameras and alarm systems?
    5) How come Nigerians always seem loud and confrontational? Always ready to “put you in your place” 😂 I also saw this on Big Brother Nigeria.
    6) What’s up with the walking stick all of a sudden when a man is rich? Is it a status thing?

  • @akanimathebula810
    @akanimathebula810 9 місяців тому +1

    Hi there. Let me address the point on why we trek long distances etc. There is actually a reason that has to do with our past; it was called "Apartheid Spatial Planning"- what it means is that the government regulated who lived where in relation to economic opportunity and is was based on race. So White ppl were allocated land near to financial or industrial centres and then a bit further away you had Indian and Coloured people and furthest would be Black people (generally, sometimes the Coloured or Indian community will be further). So the basic structure was that you had a white urban centre and then a few townships surrounding it to serve as labour reserves.
    Worst of all, for a long time Black people were not allowed in the CBD after a certain time so they had to only come in for work and leave to Black areas immediately afterwards (it was usually far enough that you cant cause trouble easily but near enough to allow for the trains and buses to get you to work).
    Hope that helps

In a multicultural society, each part of the caltural society practice its own culture differently. Sometimes it's not even a question of cultural practice, but an individual practice style of doing things. This should not be generalized as a South African culture. We all know that every Country has different culture, different people with different characters and different cultural practices. In a Democratic society like South Africa, there is a Bill of Rights which explains individual rights and the protection of those rights. People have a right of choice, religious belief etc. All those rights are constitutionally protected. For as long as the exercising of your right does not infringe upon the rights of others. Now I have been watching with dismay, the debate and the Competition between South Africa and Nigeria. I am a South African and I believe both Countries have a lot to offer. Good and law abiding Nigerians come to South Africa with good intentions. That is acceptable. But there are those terrible Nigerians who will come to South Africa with bad intentions. We all know that one rotten potato spoil the whole bag. Where such incidents occur, people are not going to individualise the situation, but generalise. For instance, how many countries in the World are sceptical of granting Nigerians a Visa? There are so many. How many Nigerians with the Country's population of over 200 million people, have left Nigeria for greener pastures. How many Countries in the World have greener pastures? Those are questions to be asked before a person leaves his country searching for greener pastures. The reputation of your country comes first before trying to play patriotism with everybody. Build your country first before criticizing others. One thing I am proud of being a South African is that even when the going is tough, they will stay and join hands to fix their problems with their government.

    You must do this, you must do that is not an instruction but a suggestion to South Africans, particularly black urban South Africans. Funny thing is that the context is rather different than what/how the subject is portrayed or illustrated & ussually no harm is intended. I'm answering a question you never asked here. Basically what you may perceive as rude comments. I honestly think most of these comments are not intended to insult u, sometime we directly translate our thoughts from our own languages to english, thus taking the whole subject out of context.
    Example
    "(@priscakoster5719
    If you really serious about learning about our culture I suggest you visit the museum so you can get the answers you need sis thanks for your interest)" Sounds rude however it's a kind gesture meaning " you will surely learn more & benefit if you were to visit any historical museum especially catering for your specific questions/interest you might have pertaining to a particular subject you need answers for.
