To be honest I didn't even realise we had Xhosa people in Zimbabwe. Usually we only think of Shona and Ndebele, so I'm so grateful to hear of this. I am Shona, and I have never understood why we don't do more to preserve the languages and cultures of all our brothers and sisters across tribal lines. Why do we learn French, Spanish and German in our schools? We have let borders constructed by hostile foreign invaders divide us. We have more in common than we have differences so let's celebrate that. Every African country has experienced tribal conflict at some point and it makes me sad. I think of myself as an African first before anything else so I will fight to preserve any Bantu language and culture. Masimanyane siqhubele phambili kunye - Ngatibatanei tiende mberi pamwe chete.
