Scatterlings of Africa
en.wikipedia.org
... Background and composition
Juluka (meaning "sweat" in Zulu) was founded in 1969 by Johnny Clegg and Sipho Mchunu. They mixed Zulu music with influences from rock and Celtic music.[3] As a multiracial band in apartheid-era South Africa, Juluka frequently had trouble with the police, and their songs were banned by state-run radio stations, but their brand of Afro-pop nonetheless became popular.[3]
The song's lyrics have been described as "reflecting the myriad dislocations of South African society."[4] According to scholar Timothy Taylor, they describe the story of "the hungry, the searching, all trying to make a better South Africa".[5]
The song's chorus illustrated its themes, also present in other compositions by Clegg: "They are the scatterlings of Africa/Each uprooted one/On the road to Phelamanga/Where the world began/I love the scatterlings of Africa/Each and every one/In their hearts a burning hunger/Beneath the copper sun."[5][6] ...

... Juluka
Juluka was an unusual musical partnership for the time in South Africa, with a white man (Clegg) and a black man (Mchunu) performing together.
The band, which grew to a six-member group (with three white musicians and three black musicians) by the time it released its first album Universal Men in 1979, faced harassment and censorship, with Clegg later remarking that it was "impossible" to perform in public in South Africa.[19]
The group tested the apartheid-era laws, touring and performing in private venues, including universities, churches, hostels, and even private homes in order to attract an audience, as national broadcasters would not play their music.[6] ...
#23: Hi Fresno500: One of these loser Boer families settled in Buffalo, NY, which is 76% white. The sumbitch did his homework before leaving RSA. Buffalo, NY is close to Ontario, Canada. If life doesn't work out for him in Blue State NY, he may make his way to Canada, another Commonwealth country with universal healthcare and an education system closer to RSA's than the US. ~52,000 white South African-born immigrants call Canada home: en.wikipedia.org
