“😳🥺. Those of us who don't even have food, where do we get MORE money to give them... Money they want because of unlawful service charges... Our rent is paid” This is from a pensioner living in social housing in Cape Town. She’s being threatened with an illegal eviction.

When some of us cautioned about the deliberate mischaracterisation and fear mongering about the Expropriation Act, some called us names. The end result is that the President of the US believes those mischaracterisation as the truth.

There are clearly some who view things differently (and I understand this completely given the years of inaction & mistrust) but to me this represents a MASSIVE victory. We argued that Tafelberg must be used in the public interest, and now it will be 1/n

This flag 🇿🇦, needs us to defend. It does not belong to Ramaphosa as the President, it belongs to all of us.
Any threat that is directed at the people of South Africa should unite us.

Carol, our nurse and outreach worker, speaks out on the devastating impact of the recent funding pause on vital HIV and healthcare services. Watch as she highlights the challenges faced by strategically undervalued communities and the urgent need for solutions.

The temporary halting of U.S. foreign aid has had an impact globally, including in South Africa. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on January 20, issuing a 90-day pause on all disbursements of foreign aid. Newzroom Afrika's @Latashia_Naidoo speaks to one of the affected organisations. Watch: tinyurl.com/bdjk3vma #Newzroom405

While the leadership clearly is lacking in #SANDF, the organisation is filled with some truly great human beings who risk their lives for our country. The soldiers in the DRC are our brothers and sisters, we must not let their sacrifice be in vain. The Minister, the DoD and SANDF leadership must answer for these mistakes.

Perhaps "many" keyboard warriors should take a moment to recognise that SANDF soldiers are also people's fathers, mothers, sons and daughters. There are 13 grieving 🇿🇦families right now.

The public should know, SAMIDRC is not a peace keeping deployment, but a peace enforcement mission, which by very definition requires offensive action, and combat operations. That the DoD and @SANDF_ZA have failed to inform the public, and referred to it as a peace keeping obligation/responsibility, shows two things. 1) a clear lack of understanding around what constitutes peace keeping, and how it differs from peace enforcement 2) The leadership of SANDF either does not know what is required for peace enforcement, or does not care that troops were improperly equipped for the task they were given.

Yesterday we watched “Neighbourhood” a play on spatial injustice, at the Baxter Theatre. Both Writer/Director Tiisetso Mashifane wa Noni and the cast drove the point home brilliantly initially through humour then a full frontal confrontation. Please go see it @BaxterTheatre
