We don't keep them a secret nor do we want to keep them a secret, show me a country that has no slums and I'll show you someone who's full of ish. We're a very young country and we still growing.

Our government made a very big mistake by opening SA borders to African immigrants. Those africans don’t have respect for south AFRICA and its people. These people are all over south africa including rural areas and we hear lots of complains from South Africans across South Africa about these african immigrants.AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE NONE OF THAT AND AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE THE TYPE OF AFRICANS WE WOULD LOVE TO COME TO SA AND LIVE PERMANENTLY WITH US SOUTH AFRICANS. wE are very tired of illegal immigrants from our african ccountries who come here and destroy our country in the same way explained above and plundering our countries, making it very filthy in the inner cities and making them ‘no go’ areas for south africans. So, there is definitely no comparison between AFRICAN AMERICANS and illegal african immigrants from african countries.

Its why there's so many beautiful floral trees there and its made it a cooler climate because of the tree planting. It was done because it was a mining area and they had issue with dust and pollution so they planted trees and 100 years later its completely changed Gautang and has made it such a beautiful CBD and most forested city in SA.

Thank Brother. It's now time that we as Africans start to build wealth and a suitable place to do that is South Africa. African Americans don't understand why we as South Africans get excited when we see them. It is because we heard about their civil rights activities and it did not fall short of what we were experiencing during apartheid. I am falling short of describing how much we had admired them. As for RNB music, the Robberta flags., Whitney Houston, the o Ojays, the Manhattans, the jazz Crusaders and all I cannot name because of time. Even today their songs are our Sunday music play as we sit and relax. African Americans are welcomed in S.A. South Africa is a first world country in a third world continent but watch the space as we will be counted as the most developed country in the world as long as we have you our diaspora. In Africa we have every mineral you can name in the world but the west are still getting a big lions share. This is the the land of our uncestors for all africans and including all blacks in diaspora.

Thank You for Your Time and Feedback as a Beautiful South African Residing in America at The Moment I Appreciate That Very Much 🙏🏾🤗🥰 I However Would Like To Suggest That Both Positive and Negative Criticism Be Showcased in The Same Video To Eliminate People Coming Across The Video Containing Negative Criticism Separately and Drawing Conclusions That, That Opinion is All That Our Beautiful Country Has To Offer, We Already Are at an Uphill Battle To Erase a Lot of Negative Views and Propaganda about Our Beautiful Country and Continent...

I'm glad you enjoyed your time here bro. I mean at this point I think being seen as an not a local is kinda not possible I would say`😄 mostly because we have everyone from all over Africa and the rest of the world, all shades of black so... and a growing population of African-Americans which is exciting👏❤I'll stick around for your move

Pretoria, Centurion, Midrand, Randburg, Santon and Northern-Johannesburg is safe. But you do get the once in a blue moon mugging that happens right in front of you (or heaven forbid yourself). Just know, you are in a 3rd world country when visiting from US or Europe.
