Abstract
This article discusses overlaps and dissimilarities between eastern Europeans’ and Africans’ subordinate position in relation to imperial powers from the perspective of a South African writer who lived in Poland. Lewis Nkosi’s subtle and ironic style outlines the burden of colonialism and cultural marginalization shared by Poles and South Africans, but also reveals the paternalism and condescension disguised by socialist slogans of solidarity with Third World nations. The complex relation between (post)colonial and eastern European cultures is informed by the Cold War.
