"Former South African President Nelson Mandela has condemned "arrogant" members of the country's African majority who have suggested that minority groups have no role to play in South Africa.
"His remarks, made in an interview with the Johannesburg-based Sunday Times, came in response to a report in the same paper last week about a prominent lawyer who had made a racist swipe at an Indian South African theatre boss.
"There are some Africans who inspire fear in the minorities because of the way they behave
Mr Mandela said he was concerned about increasing racial polarisation, in particular a "widening of the gap" between Africans and Indians.
"Some Africans themselves have made mistakes. They now throw their weight about as a majority. There are some Africans who inspire fear in the minorities because of the way they behave," he said.

Uhm, that quote is about South Africa, not Africa. I hope you realized that Africa is not a country, but a continent. The particular quote is about Kwazulu-Natal. He is criticizing the Zulus in particular, a very thingy disguised criticizism of it too.
