The Alabama was a Confederate ship from the USA that docked in Simon"s Town (near Cape Town) during the civil war. They literally sing about the Alabama coming over the sea. There is even a plaque in Simon's Town South Africa that talks about both this song and the ship.

A song celebrating an American pro-slavery Confederate ship engaged in piracy and war against Union vessels.... sung by South African blacks who suffered under Apartheid... very weird world.

You don't understand the song, these people are also descendants of slaves, and it is volk songs, describing events (sometimes bad events)done in a humorous way.The months they singing about is Surnames given to slaves who was brought to Cape Town in accordance to the month they came here

1) The song is not directly celebrating either the Confederacy or even the CSSA Alabama. It's literally just "look, there comes the Alabama, over the sea." It mentions the ship without saying anything good or bad about it. 2) To boil the Confederacy down to the "evil racist side" and the "good anti-racist" side is a gross oversimplification, and that's coming from someone who isn't an American. The Union was just as racist as the Confederacy. The difference in their views lay in if people could be property or not, not whether black people were inferior to white people. (Most people in the Union probably also believed that they are inferior.) The war also had more to do with economics and right to self-determination than slavery, although it was a part of the dispute. 3) These are Cape Coloureds, not blacks. Cape Coloureds are their own unique ethnic group and are genetically distinct from Africans because of their high amounts of Asian and European DNA. The vast majority of Cape Coloureds self-identify as such and would be offended if you called them black, because it denies the uniqueness of their people in distinction to black Africans.

It was a big deal when the Alabama showed up. The crew were invited into the town, and they the boat a new flag.
