Concerned about Cape Town

A bit off topic this. I had fully intended to write about recent (and highly successful) yoghurt making, but instead I wanted to put up this (taken from the fabulous South African cartoon strip Madam and Eve http://www.madamandeve.co.za/). It discusses the whole problem of the current xenophobic violence in SA better than I ever could.



For those who don’t have a handy South African around to explain mysterious words and phrases (like pointing out that ‘Robot’ means traffic light and is therefore a perfectly reasonable word to paint on roads), ‘Umshini wama’ is the name of Zuma’s anti-apartheid theme song.

It means ‘Bring me My Machine Gun’.
