Noticing how the black community in the U.S is also subjected to similar stereotypes by African immigrants and white people. Their experiences in America are almost parallel to what our black people in South Africa are enduring. But why? In both the U.S. and South Africa, the image of the "lazy black man/woman" was constructed by slaveholders, colonisers and pro-apartheid politicians to rationalize unpaid or cheap labor. When Black people refused to work under brutal conditions, their resistance was reframed by racist systems as laziness rather than a demand for dignity and fair wages. In South Africa, the migrant labor system relied on these tropes to ensure a supply of powerless, cheap workers. In the United States of America, post-abolition Black Codes and Jim Crow laws used the same logic to force labour through debt peonage and convict leasing. With that being said, the African immigrants who feed into these racist tropes in the respective communities are simply aligning with white supremacy. They are only socialised to believe that if they work hard and do not fight against the systemic issues, they will be rewarded by the same system. By adopting the "lazy" trope, they signal to the dominant power structure that they are just different from - and supposedly better than - the local Black population. This provides a false sense of proximity to power that is known as the model minority myth in the context of the American dynamic. In the context of South Africa, we would understand this dynamic to known as the buffer class - manifesting as a conflict of respectability politics. Immigrants may feel that by being "hardworking" (while often meaning they are willing to accept lower and exploitative pay that the locals rightfully refuse), they will earn a crumb of protection in the hierarchy. So yes, this harmful narrative should never be entertained under any circumstances.

one thing i’ll never entertain - whether it’s from white people, other africans, or anyone else - is the idea that south africans are lazy

Julius Malema would rather retweet a foreigner being beaten up for awareness. But would never retweet when a South African is missing or Kidnapped most probably by undocumented foreigners. A Vote for The EFF is endorsement of this behavior.

You go into someone’s nation after they welcomed you and you pollute their society and destroy innocent people lives and play victim card. And rest of Africa tells you the victim, you are wrong and Africa wants to tell you how to save your and society nation. “Pan African” will never discuss this part . #Shame ! Youth of Africa! Be on the right side of history. ✌🏿

As a Nigerian, after dating five (5) South African women and encountering many of their men, I have this experience to share. A Thread!
