South Africa's new surf champ, Kwezi Qika says:
...people took it for granted that Black people in this country couldn't swim. It wasn't really the case. They’ve were just never exposed to the ocean or they weren't attracted to the ocean but everyone knows Black people have rhythm. If you look at surfing, surfing is a rhythm, timing combined with a bit of physical ability and once they realize they can actually do it, they pick it up so much faster than a lot of the other kids...
OK...That sounds roughly positive. I'll take that as a caption for my nephew, who also digs the waves.
