Unfortunately I am not a tribe or nation oriented organism. My mixed background made it impossible. Having been born among the Ndau/Manyika people, by parents with links to Maungwe (Zimbabwe), Nyanja (Malawi) & Sena (Mozambique), Shangani (Zimbabwe-Mozambique) backgrounds meant that, identifying myself with one tribe and one crountry has always been inadequate. Now I am raising Zulu and Sotho speaking kids. As such, I find comfort and identity in being an African. At least I have the black skin to prove it ... my recollection, connection and links to Zimbabwe are part of a heritage and legacy, a nolstagic and source relation - in short, my home is where I am. My family are those i live with, share my life with ... so when you ask me about Mugabe and Zimbabwe, I shall give you African answers ...
