H Magwa is the name of a black teacher. He calls you a bitter person who hates his family just because you have no hero. He makes you cry in front of the whole class and makes you stay behind for ten minutes and miss part of P.E. I dislike this person, and other people do too.
Omg, he is such a H Magwa. Stop making fun of that child!
