I don’t know where Wade Maya’s guide got his story about Cecil John Rhodes being loved by the locals and being honoured with a Matopos hills burial. Rhodes died on 26 March 1902 & was buried by white settlers without the approval of the locals, which the colonizers would never have needed of course (Zimbabwe had been a colony 8 years then and the locals were under total subjugation which explains the revolt & the hangings of 1896) - I guess in his head Zimbabwe was also named Rhodesia as a show of the locals’ love and respect for Rhodes I never got the guide’s name but I challenge him to tell us where he got his history from - sometimes it’s ok to answer I don’t know to questions you don’t know the answer to.

Thank you for this WODE MAYA😭😭😭😭🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Im a Zulu/Tswana hybrid although I speak IsiZulu as a home language because of my Dad.. my grandmother, my fathers mother, is a Ndebele woman from Khezi a village near Bulawayo she married my Grandfather who was from Emadadeni near eMlazi township KZN, I’ve never been to Bulawayo before but my Dad and Mom have and it’s such an ironic way to start the video with the history of the Ndebele people and the city🔥 because I also always grew up thinking that my Grandmother and the rest of her family were Zulu people, i mean the way they looked even other people who didn’t know them here referred to them as Zulu people and the vibes they gave and the overall culture, up until I was like at the age of like 12 and 13 when she gave me a little history lesson of who I am and who she was and where she’s from and I was honestly mind-blown. I couldn’t actually believe it for a while and asked my parents who’ve visited there before and they confirmed it and my mother as a Tswana woman explained to me she’s met Batswana in Bulawayo Zimbabwe although they are a minority and having said that it really gave me a whole new perspective of life and being African as a whole and I’m really glad that she took me out of the bubble of ignorance at a very young age before I was even inside it .. I then began to educate myself and realised that the similarities between Zulu and Ndebele culture are so similar that they are literally the same thing on a Cultural basis but the only thing that makes a difference its the language it’s like German and Swiss-German basically a subversion of the same language and I’ve met a few Ndebele people here in Joburg as well they are really good people.. and now after seeing this video for real and seeing how beautiful the place and the people for the FIRST TIME EVER😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾it made me feel even more connected with the place, my spirit is really telling me to visit one day and I really hope they’ll accept me🙏🏾❤️… thanks for the video bruv its really helps people like me who have always been curious have a little closure🙏🏾 it really made my day!!🙏🏾🔥🔥 I am them, they are i and we are one Nguni people✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿🇿🇦/🇿🇼/🇸🇿…

i respectfully disagree, the sacred hill needs, have, to be restored to its original state. exhume all of those buries there. build a small burial ground at the foot of the hill and rebury them there. in the UK, there have been wild protests by blacks and whites who removed statutes of slave traders from their pedestals, toppled others into rivers- these have been recovered and placed in museums so why not Zim follow suit. its the right thing to do. relocate them to the foot of the hill where they belong, not the top! tourist will still pay to see the new burial ground at the foot oft the hill. then they get to pay again to get to see the beauty of the 'freed' top!

Some South Africans are fighting with Zimbabweans because they lack understanding, but fortunately the leaders and the majority are correcting that. The truth is that the colonizers are the one who created the situation we are in and then United States add on by destroying the welfare of our people in Zimbabwe by imposing stupid economic sanctions against them. I wish that African countries unite and support our people economically, such as investing in Zimbabwe which is part of our beautiful continent. With lot of love for African people from Durban, South Africa.

[@thato596]

Yes those stupid sanctions messed up the economy. When america puts sanctions on a country, it means they want some control on that country

[@xvee6798]

@@thato596 I fully agree with you. I applaud the then government under President Mugabe for resisting the devils of the West, especially the US and the UK. It's time for Africa to unite. A situation like this that happened in Zimbabwe should never happen again in our continent, Africa.

[@gskilly8962]

Wow nice video with a well informed tour guide. People of Bulawayo are related to people of SA because of historical links. Iam well versed in the Nguni kingdoms disintegration and migration. Mzilikazi left the present KZN and settled in Pretoria around 1820. Soshangane left for Mozambique, Zwangendaba went for Malawi and Zambia, Nyamazane the Swazi left for Zimbabwe. The Mzilikazi was after by the boers Fottrekers under Andries Pretorius in 1830. He lost men men because the boers were armed with maxima mechine guns. Mzilikazi started to recruit young many from the around area to his army the SA Ndebele. The likes of Mahlangu, Mabena, Sibindi, Jiyana etc. I would like to dispel the notions that Mzilikazi left SA running away from Shaka, how can he runaway from someone who have died long ago. The colonialist are pushing that wrong narrative because Mzilikazi was attacked by whites. Mzwangendaba conquered the present day Zimbabwean tribes only left after head that Mzilikazi was coming. Mzwangendaba fled to Malawi and Zambia. Then Nyamazane the Swazi queen was deafeted and submitted to Mzilikazi. Swazis are Dlamini, Luphahla, Lushozi, Maseko etc. Mzilikazi left Pretoria with a lot of tswana speaking people because he believed in numbers. Just like Shaka who managed to round up all Nguni states and formed the Zulu kingdom. So people mustn't be surprised to see similarities of Zim people and SA people. Nguni who come with Mzilikazi are Khumalo, Gumede, Sithole, Ndlovu, Dlodlo, Dlomo, Mkhize, Mkhwanazi etc.

[@frederickcollins9228]

Fantastic! The conceit of the European is truly impressive - buried three times! Would you believe it? The Zimbabwean history is really appreciated. Anyone who read Shaka Zulu by E.A.Ritter or saw the miniseries by the same name and didn't know what happened after Shaka's general migrated to what is now Zimbabwe would appreciate this. Especially the reference to "Bayete." In fact, I have a new curiosity to read up on Zimbabwean history. One thing, in what was clearly understood dialog, there tended to be a few patches where I could not understand as when Wode Maya faded out at a bit at 37:00. Keep up the great work!

It's not easy but we fight by means of the round table discussion or toyi-toying.
