[edc]

The best part of this story was the picture on the front page. Its not a gang of "armed whites", its a N-I-N-J-A!!

Anyone know where I can get a cool professional ninja mask also?

 

[Bageloo]

I don't know of any other Zulu word used to refer to white people. If ever anyone knows please help expand my Zulu vocab.

Not that you'd be able to tell, but don't you mean arab women?

Mlungu is definately not derogatory. It is actually complimentary. Some black people call other black people Mlungu if they want to show that those people some right to be respected. I do not agree with it at all, as it perpetuates the aparthied reinforced belief that white is good and black is bad. Pure mental slavery.

No, definitely Indian.
Same shop, different day, same woman, sometimes dressed as ninja, sometimes not.

I agree Rooinek, which is why Steve Biko's material needs to be made widely available.

And you thought I was just a pale male sitting behind a laptop, with internet access, in Rustenburg?

Sssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! They don't allow mentioning on public forums!

Aren't you perhaps that Zulu dancing "mlungu", Jonny Clegg ?

 

[Skeptik]

"mlungu" word is neither racist nor derogatory . It only means white person.

Who says so?

Mlungu is just like ******.

****** means "non-believer". In reality it is deemed universally offensive and therefore rarely used. How would it be if I said it just literally means "heathen" and so I can use it and be OK with that??! (Such arrogance)

Nonsense.

He's probably more black than you.
