It seems to me that everything is pure speculation, no one knows what he even looked like. Henry Francis Fynn wrote such incredulous stuff, that has helped spread the rumours. Mzilikazi, same tribe is also described as a warrior, yet according to Robert Moffat, he was an obese alcoholic, dressed partially in whiteman's clothing and spent his day drinking in a whiteman's Scotch cart (wheeled buggy). His son Lobengula is then some how also described ad a Matabele warrior. Where did Shaka get his steel for his spears, seeing they never evolved from the Stone age to the Bronze age and have no written alphabet, beyond the Latin. All myths, I believe, but am open to any facts!
His praise songs give us a clear indication of his nature. For instance we know that he was light skinned just like his mother. A stanza in the praise songs describes him as having ears that shined with rays of light.
The recounting of history has no creed. So long as facts are kept as facts, and the history is not skewed to favour bias or agenda, then anyone should be allowed to research and retell any historical event they so wish.
My father was born in South Africa and if he told this history he should be able to and he is WHITE. Judging people and things by race is in fact racist. Smh

What Caused the Violence, we don't know... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's why I always say we can't expect white people to tell our history, they can't even tell our present
Everytime I see a white person tell our history, my blood boils nxaa! 🤨
Am an African and I don't see any problem with that
