Rest in peace, Reverend Jesse Jackson.
He never said South Africa was too far away or that our struggle had nothing to do with the people of the United States. He stood firmly with us, mobilising millions to isolate the racist apartheid regime and calling for sanctions, boycotts, and global solidarity until apartheid fell.
It is therefore deeply disappointing that some South Africans today, the very beneficiaries of that international solidarity now claim that the suffering of Palestine, Cuba, Venezuela, the DRC, or Sudan is “too far away” to concern us.
Our freedom was made possible because others refused to be indifferent. We dishonour that legacy when we do the same.

A dignified response by the Palestinian UN representative that cuts to the heart of the deception and lies of the Israeli Gvt and its genocidal actions , as well
as the complicity of many Western Gvt.

Birgit Schreiber argues, to truly align with the UN's SDGs, student affairs must not just have themed programs but infuse them throughout.
And we must embody the values - sourcing green, living diversity, modeling human rights.
When students see the SDGs in action they become agents of social change.

Reasons to stay optimistic, South Africa:
-> The rand has recovered somewhat and is nearly back in the R18s/$
-> Fuel prices were cut today
-> Zuma lost another court case
-> We have enough solar & wind projects in the pipeline to eliminate rolling blackouts forever from 2025
