A small 5 step solution on how we can abolish Xenophobia & Afrophobia as the youth. [ A Thread]
1.)EDUCATE YOURSELF:
Before lifting a finger to tweet/post what you are standing with or against (this refers to any movement/systemic problem etc. E.g: GBV, LGBTQI & BLM) , learn to have common understanding and in depth knowledge of the situation... before even engaging.

2.)CALL A SPADE A SPADE & NOT A GARDENING TOOL (This does not however, include SA men in terms of GBV) . I have personally met extraordinary Africans from neighbouring countries. So a criminal is a criminal whether black, white, foreign or not.
3.)STOP GLAMOURIZING WESTERN CULTURE AND LOOKING DOWN ON YOUR OWN.
This is probably the most important ! We need to start being weary of the way we look at Africa. Let us take pride in what we do, how we dress, our food, our languages and so forth!

3.2)...I also understand there is an African diaspora but looking up to the culture of the diaspora more than culture within Africa, in its own is also a problem guys. The youth has fallen victim to this! So guys please give your African "Mandems" a check. Lmao !
4)BE BEHIND YOUR CONTINENT BEFORE BEING BEHIND YOUR BORDER.
Borders are just a way for Africans to stay separated because God knows how much power we will possess when we unite! So the more separated we are the less power we have.

5) LOVE, RHANDZA, LERATO,DASHURIA,ፍቅር ,IHUNANYA !!!!!!!
SELF HATE IS REAL! START LOVING YOURSELF IN ORDER TO LOVE THOSE AROUND YOU !!!!!
