Quite right, most of the Bantu tribes of South Africa aren't any more "native" to the region than Europeans. And as we've both pointed out, the blacks of South Africa aren't the monolithic supporters of the ANC that the media makes them out to be. Liberals and "black power" types in the US always saw Chief Buthelezi and his Zulu tribe as an embarrassment to their cause because of his support of the Apartheid government over the ANC. He may not have liked Apartheid, but he and his people realized that ANC rule would be a thousand times worse for them.
The Boers and the Zulus were more or less non-combatant neighbors. The Zulus were NEVER for the ANC COMMIES, which is why Winnie Mandela set upon forcing them, through intimidation, torture, necklacing, and murders, to "bend a knee", so to speak, to their ANC OVERLORDS. It worked for some, not as well as she had planned. Today, the majority of Zulus are still against the ANC and all that it stands for.
The Zulus fought the Xhosa, beat them badly, and brought them into what is now RSA....asSLAVES and THAT is how that tribe got there to begin with!
The vast majority to the ANC, from its beginnings, were Xhosa; "saint Nelson", the stinking COMMIE TERRORIST, was an Xhosa.
Re Western misconceptions.....The Western world was was fed a whole LOT of insane propaganda about Desmond Tutu! OTOH...in South Africa he was/is looked upon as an idiot; a NOTHING, by most!
