Being raised in South Africa sharpens one’s understanding of Universal Human Rights. Generally, SA people abhor injustice, hierarchy, the humiliation of others & classism. It’s an imperfect country, but egalitarianism is embedded. Navi Pillay embodies this fully. Congratulations

Anti-apartheid activist and Tutu IP Trust chairperson Dr Mamphela Ramphele says organisations like Afriforum represent the post-apartheid government's failure to hold the beneficiaries of colonialism and apartheid accountable. Ramphele was reacting to a lecture given by Wouter 'Dr Death' Basson, the former head of the apartheid state’s secret chemical and biological warfare programme, Project Coast, at the Afriforum Theatre in Pretoria. Afriforum says it only provided the venue and was not involved in arranging for Basson to speak. Ramphele says the arrogance of organisations like Afriforum results from the ANC government's failure to continue with the work the TRC started.

"My work is God's work given to me and if that gets me into trouble then tough luck. I am not going to hold back because I am not doing anything I haven't done before. I am trying to be obedient to the mandates of the Gospel ." - Archbishop Desmond Tutu, 1988. Credit: CTV News.

"Ultimately, you want a leader who is also a servant."
In this interview from 2007, Desmond Tutu described the qualities he believes make a good leader. He says that like Nelson Mandela, a leader should lead for the sake of the people, encapsulate the aspirations of those they represent, and not be motivated by self-glorification.
What qualities do you look for in a leader?

We reflect back as the SABC celebrates 90 years of broadcasting services. It was Nov 3, 1992 when we first went on air, and I said, "Welcome to our first show, Top Level. We then changed the name to the #FeliciaShow. We got South Africa talking. Thank you @SABC. Thanks #Mzansi!

Happy heavenly birthday Tata!
This was my 1st interview with #Mandela in 1992 at a private dinner with him & Dr & Mrs Richard Maponya. This was when I decided I would come back home to use media to encourage dialogue between black & whites post apartheid. We got SA talking!

Nelson Mandela Month is more than just a time to honour Madiba's legacy. It is a call to mobilise it.
Building the communities we want to live in requires all of us. Every act of service, every effort to confront injustice, and every contribution, no matter how small, helps create the more just, equal and compassionate society that Madiba envisioned.
Nelson Mandela inspired generations through his unwavering commitment to justice. But his legacy was never meant to end with him. It lives on through the choices we make and the actions we take every day.
This Mandela Month, we are called to put our hands forward and continue the work. The task of building better communities belongs to all of us.
The call is for collective action. The question is: How will you answer it?

So. We have confirmation that Starlink is a client of Resolve. This means that the former Leader of the DA, facilitated a meeting with a prospective “tender” applicant which resulted in the Minister beginning changing rules to fit the requirements of said “bidder.”
That, my dears is corruption.
