South Africa is aligned to the UN resolution that declared the transatlantic trafficking and racialised enslavement of Africans as the gravest crime against humanity. We affirm the role of reparations as a necessary step toward remedying historical injustice.




The 6th of April marks the arrival of Jan van Riebeek 1652, and the beginning of settler colonialism which was later consolidated through wars of conquest, which our forefathers fought and sacrificed their lives, resisting for centuries, the brutal dispossession of our people, until the creation of the Union of South Africa, May 31st, 1910. The creation of the Union of South Africa was a settlement between the British and Dutch colonial forces post the Anglo-Boer War, for foster white solidarity and to the complete exclusion of the natives, the African masses of our people. The struggle against forgetting is a foundational and navigational principle for any genuine liberation struggle. Lest we forget!









More than embarrassing

It’s so funny to watch the people who call the people who criticise private sector CEO pay “envious”, say nonsense like this. The people earning high salaries in govt (which push up this rather modest average) are mostly highly qualified doctors, surgeons, lawyers, judges, principals, engineers, accountants, administrators, etc. Govt employs too few people (only 3 govt employees per 100 citizens) and they are generally remunerated reasonably.
