If we are the beneficiaries, why do we have high unemployment, poverty and inequality gap? Who benefits from this trade? White Westen businesses? It does not benefit Black South African businesses..

It is not a benefit as long as indigenous South Africans are excluded in their economy. You are talking about slave wages that are paid to South Africans by Western White businesses. AGOA can be cancelled, it does not benefit the ordinary man in the street.
