Talk:Literature of South Africa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I am a South African who is in the white minority in my country, and I don't understand why there is not literature included by Anglo-South-Africans. The only reason I could think of is that this page was created by an American, either black or white. Because of the history of African-Americans and white Americans in the U.S., in which the blacks were a minority and were treated very badly by the racist whites, I think that when writing about white people and black people in any context, the favor is given to what is the American minority, the blacks. I'm not racist against Americans, white or African-American (called this in America), or Blacks (called this in Africa), but am crying out from a minority's point of view. Because this topic is called "South AFRICAN literature" the favour was given to the majority in South Africa, although there are many Anglo-South-Africans who have also written great literature. Is it possible to give equal visibility to the minority?
