        Did the whites compensate the black farmers whom they forcefully removed from the land? This is treachery.

        The recolonization of Africa is being instituted. #Zimbabwe is the latest attempt. The African continent needs to eradicate weak leaders who are willing to betray freedom & full liberation of the people. #EndWhiteSupremacy
