Question

John Dube founded the first newspaper in this ethnic group’s language and founded the SANNC with his nephew, Dr. Pixley Seme (“SEH-meh”). Members of this ethnicity trained in Operation Marion took over the town of Trust Feed and perpetrated the Boipatong massacre. The Reform Party was formed after a leader of this ethnicity and Harry Schwarz signed the Mahlabatini Declaration of Faith. This was the ethnicity of the first African to win a Nobel Peace Prize, Albert (*) Luthuli. A leader of this ethnicity governed a region named for them prefixed with “Kwa-” (10[3])before (10[1])founding (10[1])the Inkatha Freedom Party. A paramilitary organization that takes its name from this ethnic group’s words for “spear (10[1])of the nation” lends its name to a party founded by a leader of this ethnicity, Jacob Zuma. For 10 points, what South African ethnic group name a kingdom once led by Shaka? ■END■
