We were taught wrong, they taught us that White people a Capitalists, if that was the case why have we continued to reject a Community Based Approach in all we do, and instead embraced an individualistic and capitalistic approach as Black People..
Whether we like it or not, all other nations advance in all they do because they support their people first, not us Black South Africans. I was once a youth Pastor in a multiracial church, one member of our church, an Elderly Man, Indian by race, would religiously leave Auckland Park and go to Lenz to buy groceries every time it was time for him to buy groceries. I love that man, I saw in him the commitment and loyalty he had for his Indian Community. He would only buy from other races if his own people did not have what he wanted or needed.
My definition of capitalism: a community made up individuals from one community who are inspired and act from the concept of Ubuntu supporting each others businesses, efforts etc.. to a level of success that allows them to be Seen and Act as a Nation of Capitalists.
Capitalists have their communities, and they support and build them first, and even when they help other nations it is so that the beneficiary Nation is indebted or enslaved to them. They can be a smaller population but they always have the power to buy land, whether through stealing the land, or bribes or with honest deals.
Black South Africans we have become what we've assumed White People are, Individualistic and Capitalistic, unfortunately our capitalistic tendency is not backed by money, it is backed by greed, poor politics, ethnic division, and always begging White People and All other Nations for Jobs, and still cry that they pay us peanuts.
Black South African run off to White Churches, and when they get there White show them they do not want to fellowship with them even in church, White people eventually leave that church, and find themselves churches they believe are predominantly White, while masquerading as multiracial churches. The same applies with schools, businesses, and even suburbs.
Black Man Walk Faster, or Forever Remain Behind.
The basic value of Ubuntu is exactly what we need to exercise amongst ourselves before exercising it towards other nations.
Ubuntu, suggest you've got something to give, something to do for someone, why bother showing Ubuntu to other nations when you can't show it to your own Kind.
When you have nothing to give or nothing to do for someone, then the only thing you are doing is giving up your right to trade in you own townships, and country, eg. Who owns spazas, who occupies buildings in Central Johannesburg, who owns large properties, who has big churches, who has what is labeled as good schools by Black South Africans? I'm sure you have good answers, yet bitter to admit.
Black Man, Black South African, Wake up, Rise to the occasion, and Walk Faster, otherwise, you'll forever remain behind.
One Black South African, Proudly Venda by brith, a God Fearing man, and who is proud Pastor, husband, a father, challenging his fellow Black People to Walk Faster.
Here is my prophecy, and one that I announce not as a declaration, but as a warning: Black Man Walk Faster or Forever Remain Behind.
