Few South Africans do. In our case the choir was initiated by exiled Saffers together with activists here as part of the Struggle - hence the resistance songs, many of which would be very inappropriate to sing these days! There is at least one similar group in Sweden and one i Denmark (we have met them both), and one (probably more) in Germany. I think they all still exist in some form; these songs are very hard to let go.
Sweden and Norway were very involved politically and economically in South African matters in the 80ies.
