今回は、南アフリカにおける外国人排斥に関するメモみたいなモン（謎）
この所、南アフリカでは外国人排斥が目的と思われる襲撃事件が頻発してるらしい。
それに絡んで、南アフリカ出身の音楽プロデューサー（メインはヒップホップ）であるカスパー・ニョヴェスト（Cassper Nyovest：Refiloe Maele Phoolo）さんがジンバブエで行う公演のボイコットを呼び掛ける動きが起きてるとか。
・Zimbabweans angry over SA xenophobia, threaten to disrupt Cassper Nyovest’s Bulawayo show（2015年4月16日 thedailyvox.co.za）
色んな意味でコメントに困るこの話。

Following the violent xenophobic attacks in KwaZulu-Natal, some Zimbabweans have told South African hip-hop star Cassper Nyovest that he is not welcome in Zimbabwe.
Nyovest is set to perform in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe on 25 April, but some say that because South Africans don’t want Zimbabweans in South Africa, Zimbabweans don’t want Nyovest in Zimbabwe.
RA’EESA PATHER explains.
Nyovest, the man behind hip hop hits Gusheshe and Doc Shebeleza, has been advised to cancel his performance in Bulawayo after being threatened by Zimbabweans on social media.
A Facebook post by Zimbabwean musician, Augustus Baba Zaine Verunga, helped spur the furore after he called on Zimbabweans to boycott Nyovest’s show.
“This show will not happen, and if it does it will not end well. We’ll send a message to every SA citizen watching, partaking and promoting XENOPHOBIA,” Verurunga wrote on Facebook.
Nyovest’s mother saw the Facebook post, and called the rapper, asking him to cancel his performance.

・Xenophobic violence in South Africa leaves at least five dead（2015年4月14日 theguardian.com）
参考までに、2015年4月14日分 theguardian.com『Xenophobic violence～』から前半部分を（略）
---- 以下引用 ----
At least five people have been killed and hundreds forced to flee their homes in one of South Africa’s worst outbreaks of xenophobic violence in years, authorities said on Tuesday.
Most of the recent unrest occurred in and around the coastal city of Durban, where police said two foreigners and three South Africans were killed.
The dead included a 14-year-old boy who was allegedly shot during looting on Monday night and died at a hospital, police colonel Jay Naicker said.
Some 34 people have been arrested for possession of unlicensed firearms and other crimes in the last two days, he said.
“Police are deployed and in high alert in most of the areas where there are foreign nationals,” Naicker said in a statement emailed to the Associated Press.
Despite the increased police presence, authorities are hard-pressed to stop unrest that recalls similar violence in South Africa in 2008 in which about 60 people died.
In January this year, four people died during a week of looting of foreign-owned shops and other violence in Soweto and other areas of Johannesburg.
Some South Africans have accused immigrants of taking jobs and opportunities away from them.
The latest violence followed reported comments by Zulu King Goodwill Zwelithini, an influential figure among the Zulu ethnic group, that foreigners should “pack their bags” and leave.
The king has since appealed for an end to the unrest.

「外国人に職を奪われた」云々ってのは、この手の事件の背景として良く取り上げられる言説とはいえ・・・。
こういう事件が頻発するのは、外国から来た人達はとりあえず「敵」とみなす認識が南アフリカの人達の中でそれなりに共有されてるからなのかもしれない。
一方、南アフリカの警察に相当する組織（Justice, Crime Prevention and Security Cluster：JCPS）の長官であるナチ・レコ（Nkosinathi Nhleko）氏は、一連の事件に関し首を傾げざるを得ないコメントをしていた。

（中略）
Shying away from labelling the violence against foreigners xenophobic, Police Minister Nathi Nhleko said he found it hard to view the attacks as just xenophobia.
“We all need to agree that it is a complex picture that is emerging.Some of us find it difficult to think that this is just xenophobic, I think it represents a particular political problem to some extent because you don’t see Australians or Britons being chased on the streets and similar demands being placed on them to leave the country. What you are seeing are largely Africans against one another, that’s why I’m saying it represents a political problem that we as South Africans need to deal with.
“In a sense, what we are witnessing are afrophobic kinds of activities and attacks, resembling elements of self-hate among Africans. The evidence shows the attacks are mainly against the Congolese, Zimbabweans, Malawians, Somalis and some South African nationals as well.”
Nhleko said the attacks were also part of an ideological problem that needed to be tackled and that required society to work together to fight it.
“What is also true is that there are also a number of things being taken advantage of here. The criminal element is one of those, when people storm into a shop and loot it, that’s purely criminal activity but they are then using this [the attacks] as a cover of what people think of as their demand. These activities need to stop.”

南アフリカ以外のアフリカ諸国から来た人達を襲撃するのは外国人排斥じゃない、と言いたいんだろうか？
この辺りは、南アフリカで長年行われてきた人種隔離政策の影響 -白人と黒人を分離していた- も影響してるかもしれんけど・・・。
いずれにしろ、Nhleko氏の発言は南アフリカにおける外国人排斥の動きについて鈍感であるのは否めない。
もっとも、外国人排斥の動きに関して鈍感なのは、Nhleko氏に限らないようだが。

VIP tags have been given to the people who are more important than the other people at the #SayNoToXenophobia #PeaceMarch...

The xenophobic attacks have demonstrated that South African lives matter more to some people than African lives, and the march seemed to build on that with VIP tags handed out to those deemed more equal than others.
At a peace protest advocating for an end to xenophobia, surely the message should be that all Africans are equally important?
