[QUOTE="andybob, post: 1547800, member: 2703"] Texasbred; the present majority black tribal groups are of the Bantu people, they are recent arrivals. in fact they were migrating in from thge north at the same time as the Dutch were establishing the Cape farms, the two groups migrating north (Trekboers) and south (Bantu tribes) met just north of the Fish river, so the southern part was never occupied by the Bantu tribes, in fact, if you take into account the early marriages to Khoi people, the Afrikaans people have a greater claim to the southern region than just 400 years of occupation. And considering how the Afrikaans people and later the British defeated the Zulu and stopped their rapid encroachment into neighbouring tribal groups, most Bantu people alive today would never existed without the success of the white peoples in the Zulu wars. The treaties and agreed land distribution (tribal reserves) were never reneged on as happened in other countries. I had this discussion with a liberal Australian on facebook, who didn't like the comparison between South Africa/Rhodesia and Australia in their treatment of local and native peoples - he chose to block me rather than debate the subject after his initial insulting rant.
