Fear

This statement will hit home to all white South Africans growing up in apartheid. I was one of them having guilt and shame for that time like most thinking white South Africans do.
However the longer you stay away out of fear for this beloved land means you continue to perpetuate that guilt and shame. It is a giving in to fear, the lasting effect of apartheid.
SOUTH AFRICANS come home and brave up to change.
