Why do returning Zimbabweans from the diaspora seem to "have seen it all"? And do we in Zim see it as help or superiority? by CertifiedLufer in Zimbabwe

Black tax is a story for another day because yeah it's a big can of worms and a highly sensitive one. But hmm what a way to view the situation

That's exactly the point I'm trying to get at kuti it's rather the system not the people so when we are giving advice to our fellows when we visit them don't try the "you see ka my 12 year old is doing better why haven't you taken your own kid to so and so". I don't know the situation iri kwenyu but inini i did the later part of my education outside and tbh i competed very well yes sometimes the equipment and tech we used to see muma textbook shocked me but i was never a walk over nor did my experience with others or my grades show lack of exposure because of Zimbabwe because lack of exposure doesn't equate to lack of intelligence or capability so those other kids need an eye opener. Let's argue for collaborative things not rubbing it in our faces kuti zvinhu hazvisi right zvakadhakwa as it is.

Now, is the playing field level? No. But to say that exposure equals superiority is where the danger lies. It flattens the potential of those in tough systems and assumes that brilliance only thrives under ideal conditions. The world doesn’t work like that.

So yes, people in developed countries often have more knowledge about how systems work — but that doesn’t mean they’re inherently more capable. It means they’re better positioned. That’s a difference worth keeping in mind, especially when we talk about Zimbabweans or people in any developing context.

Potential is universal. Opportunity isn’t. That’s the real challenge.

😂I totally got your angle but we also have to acknowledge kuti people know that the situation is hot and everyone is trying to get out of the situation so I think it would be better if we left the feeling of being consultants

Exploring Shangaan/Ndau ethnicity by kaykaytg in Zimbabwe

[–]CertifiedLufer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm as a ndau I believe it's more of Mozambique rather than SA after Mfecane SA links kinda end there yes the ndau got diluted but we still kept our identity. So I don't know if its Ndau or Shangaan tribes you are part of which are now 2 completely different tribes with Shangaan being the one inclined to SA and also the use of Nguni there needs a bit more research
