How old were you when you learned Rhodesia even existed? Apparently it's not even taught in the west.

shamefully i admit that i only ever heard about rhodesia on Jow Forums. even though it was one of our colonies, i never knew about it.

I'm not surprised. In America few, if any people even know it exists. When I tell people I'm from Africa, and not from South Africa, they ask, either with great curiosity or shock, how it's possible white people even lived in Africa. There were 400,000 of us in the mid 1970s and few people realize that.

i heard about it first when that dylann roof kid shot up that church, and on the news they said he had a rhodesian flag and an apartheid SA flag on his jacket
didnt actually look into it until a year or so later
rhodesians never die

This is how most Americans know about Rhodesia, which is unfortunate.
We weren't and still aren't killers, unless of course we're fighting communists
Landon Taylor

Christopher Ortiz
Bu...bu...but they were MEAN to the noble black people who inhabited the land! they killed 2 billion blacks for that land!

I was born in 1977, but I never learned about Rhodesia in school. We had to memorize a map of Africa in high school—we had to do that for every continent—but we learned nothing about African history except that our slaves came from there and that there were lots of mineral resources to be exploited there, but local corruption stood in the way of Anerican efforts to make progress with those resources.
Pic related is a recent shot of the intersection in your pic.

The rich in Zimbabwe live well. The poor do not. There isn't much middle ground.
Andrew Morales

Rhodesia is/was an irrelevant country theres nothing worth teaching about it ,at least in schools
Nathaniel Martinez
It's a microcosm and precursor to what's happening in the west.

Just a quick refresher for those not well-versed in Rhodesian history.

Look how nicely dressed, clean, kempt, and well behaved everyone is. Everyone is happy, productive, and well fed. Whites are meant to rule.

I learned about it when i was 14 and it made me go from libertarian to nationalist
Austin Torres
Well into high school. Even then it was only because we had a great, based, somewhat unorthodox history teacher. He even mentioned the classic 'breadbasket of Africa' thing
Levi Barnes
I was taught about it in Geography class aged 15
It was used as an example of what happens if you kick white people out of a country.
Hunter Sanders
I heard about it from these Combat and Survival books I got from my uncle when I was a kid. Very useful and good for anons to own.
