@kwaggabal Thanks for taking the time to respond. I understood that it was about pensioners, though, you have still missed my point: Most Black pensioners are not well-off enough to enter old age homes. Their children are certainly not well off enough to look after them, not the healthcare system, Orthodox Church etc so my comment was still valid. Or are you saying that there are no Black pensioners in Zimbabwe? Because I didn't see a Coloured, Indian or Black pensioner in the documentary.

@NeverStopTheMadness that is the hard horrible truth

how the hell did the whites in South Africa and Rhodesia give up their power, I would take UN SANCTIONS for the rest of my life than let blacks have power

when both Rhodesia and SA gave up their power to niggers they had already EXAMPLES of failed Afreakan states, they had seen the brutality in central african nations

they knew this and gave up their power, it is sad but it is their fault they are starving and dead!!!!

@Ndakanatswa This is not a doccie on the whole of Zimbabwe. The whole purpose of this was to highlight a section of people who are forgotten and who can't move from Zimbabwe even if they want to. Our hearts go out to all Zimbabweans, but this is about pensioners in old age homes, who without the support of this effort will starve, with no families to fend for them.

Rhodesia was a prosperous African country when ruled by whites. Now when they have niggers in power for the last 30 years they've become one of the worst places on Earth.

But sure, racism is wrong and all races are equal, LOL.

I commend your effort, but when you do these kinds of documentaries, I advise you to take a full cross-section of the society you are documenting. More than 80% of the Zimbabwean population are in fact not white pensioners; though an average observer with little or no knowledge of the nation's demographic would think this is the case. Black Zimbabweans do in fact suffer much more than the average white Zimbabwean pensioner. That is also food for thought.

An inspiring story. A once proud nation, the true breadbasket of Southern Africa, now in poverty and beginning the process of starving. Choose your leaders and your government carefully, my friends. W
