Epistle to Afrophobic South Africa

When many African countries ganged up against the white apartheid regime, nobody thought Black South Africans, in a jiffy, would barbarously unleash Afrophobia against their own Blacks brethren they derogatorily call makwerekwere or foreigners. This poesy chides South Africans and Africans who failed to unite Africa. The Epistle ticks off all who take pride in their fake and feeble nationality, which, essentially is a colonial leftover. The message is

point-blank. South Africans must confront their actual problems such as systemic and systematic injustices and inequities dogging their country wherein ‒ whites and a few elites still own almost everything ‒ in lieu of passing the buck.
