I am a descendant of the African Gods, birthed from the African soil that my ancestors walked.
I go by a name inherited from my ancestor it has a meaning behind it, a cultural significance and it represents my identity

My African ancestry trail left my skin utterly covered in melanin pigmentation, it shines from afar and reflects my history, my roots and my beauty

Diversity is the formation of a community, born and raised in a versatile rainbow nation I sprouted to make my spiritual connection to my roots my identity, on this day my ethnicity shall be commemorated and recognised as one of the officials

The touch and feel of my African traditional attire in my hand and the mouth watering taste and texture of indigenous foods in my mouth is heaven on earth

I know my soul has aligned with my roots when vibrations of the African drums play to the beat of my heart and my bare-feet stomp the African soil as I dance to the rhythm as tho possessed and dust rises to meet the African sunset,
I am the meeting of two provinces, the beholder of my mother and father tongue
I am proudly Venda and Pedi
I am South African
I am a proud descendant.
