Jitsvinger has been blazing the airwaves brandishing his style of afrikaans hip hop.Me and some students just had a interesting discussion regarding afrikaans and its place in South African society.What i find so often is that history gave a misplaced journal of the language we are so often reminded of Soweto and the rise against the education of afrikaans.I think not many people know about the rise of the language in a community that was raised with it and that made it uniquely South African,a slave language that was transformed and recycled as it occurred in several colonized states around the world ala south america/carribean etc etc. so i bring to u Jitsvinger
