4th Post for Chapters 7-12

Passage from Chapter 9




Yes, this house is full, and that house is full. For everyone is coming to Johannesburg. From the Transkei and the Free State, from Zululand and Sekukuniland. Zulus and Swazis, Shangaans and Bavenda, Bapedi and Basuto, Xosas and Tembus, Pondos, and Fingos, they are all coming to Johannesburg. 

I wondered who all of these peoples were, and what they were like, and I found a little information on each one of them.
