      @EMAN67 (Movies,politics,commentary) You can't, there just aren't any to tell. No land in Zimbabwe (unlike South Africa) was taken away from any black person. Are you aware of how the 'Tribal Trust Areas' were established ? When the whites came to Zimbabwe they found an extremely underpopulated land and the BSA Company (yes, the guy you love to hate - Rhodes) sat with all the Chiefs and Elders and gave them first choice of ALL the land in Zim and they chose the TTL's as it was easy to till with the implements that they had at the time. The whites took the land that needed deeper tilling and made a success of it. Before you say that the whites were 'invaders' or such like name may I remind you that both the Shona and the Matabele were the same coming in from the North East and South respectively. Please take the tree truck off your shoulder !

Open land does not mean its not owned. Land was reserved for grazing and future generations. It all belonged to them. Just because there is no building on your lawn does not mean you don't own it. Let's start there.

    Is Alan back in Zimbabwe? He left Rhodesia at the height of the Smith Regime hopefully protesting against racism. Welcome home Alan.
