Thought for today:
"In 1879, the Zulus won the battle at Rork's Drift after greatly outnumbering the British soldiers. Today, Zulus are the largest ethnic group in South Africa and number between ten and eleven million. They live largely in the province of Kwazulu-Natal, and some also live in Zimbabwe, Zambia and Mozambique. It is stated that the Zulus were considered to be third-class citizens under Apartheid rule and suffered state discrimination. Although the British avenged their loss at Rork's Drift over the years that followed, today the Zulu nation fight on with their vote instead of their spears. They have learned much from the late Nelson Mandela. The Zulus know, however many battles they lost in the past that the future of their country belongs to them. They take comfort in the knowledge that as the largest expanding ethnic group in South Africa, that it's only a matter of time before they win the political war by sheer numbers of their followers at the ballot box."
