Actor Arnold Schwarzenegger thanks people for reaching out to him after he was kicked by a man in South Africa (video)

On Saturday, May 18, a video of actor Arnold Schwarzenegger and former governor of California, getting kicked in the back by an unidentified man in South Africa surfaced on social media.

The Terminator actor had gone to South Africa for his Arnold Athlete Africa event when the incident happened.

Schwarzenegger had been at the event celebrating a wheelchair-bound archery athlete on his Snapchat when the unidentified man came out of nowhere and kicked him in the back.

In the video, it could be seen that the man, who fell immediately after kicking the heavily built actor, was picked up, subdued and dragged out of the scene. He was heard kicking and screaming that he needs a Lamborghini.

The actor, who received messages of concern after the video surfaced, took to his Twitter to put everyone at ease. He thanked people for their concerns and stated that there was no need to worry.

According to Schwarzenegger, he did not realize he was kicked in the back until he saw the video. He stated that he thought he was jostled by the crowd.

He wrote: "Thanks for your concerns, but there is nothing to worry about. I thought I was just jostled by the crowd, which happens a lot. I only realized I was kicked when I saw the video like all of you. I’m just glad the idiot didn’t interrupt my Snapchat."

The former governor also advised people to stop sharing the video because that would be giving the man who attacked him the cheap fame he wanted, instead of athletes like the boy he had been filming at the time of the incident.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
