I need young people from every other nation on the African continent to read up on the Arab Spring tonight.

Replicate what you saw ordinary South Africans do today. Do it for You. For the homeland that is your inheritance. For the future.

The answers we are looking for don’t | won’t fit into the frameworks, distorted reality and educated order we are all socialised to seek.
Which is why your Goliath knows and believes you will not organise or fight.

Let’s play a game: Ramaphosa Address Bingo.

□ “We condemn all forms of violence and lawlessness.”

□ “South Africa is a nation governed by the rule of law.”

□ “We acknowledge the concerns of communities.”

□ “We cannot blame foreign nationals for all our problems.”

□ “A multi-stakeholder task team will be established.”

□ “Government departments will work together to address the matter.”

□ “We are strengthening border management.”

□ “Law enforcement agencies have been instructed to act.”

□ “We must balance security with human rights.”

□ “Social cohesion is important.”

□ “We call on communities to remain calm.”

□ “Those who break the law, regardless of nationality, will face consequences.”

□ “We are engaging regional partners.”

□ “This matter requires a whole-of-government approach.”

□ “South Africans and foreign nationals must live in peace.”

□ “A report will be submitted to Cabinet.”

□ “We remain committed to finding lasting solutions.”

Did I miss any of the classics?😂

The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.

The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.

Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.

If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

A coach who never stopped teaching. It sounds crazy to say this, but you made greatness feel normal. Even after hat-tricks, wins and trophies, there was always another lesson, another challenge and another level to reach. That mentality changed this club forever and changed me too. The honour of a lifetime to work with the best. Thank you for everything, boss 🙏🏻 🩵

I don't think South Africa speaks enough about the Maluleke Sisters.

Young women need role models like this. We need to see more stories like these of black women being trailblazers in their respective careers.📌

"You currently need R2000 for food from someone who needs R20 000 to fix his car and he is looking up to his friend who needs R200 000 for his business.

He is asking it from his Brother who needs R2M to complete his House. His Brother is in turn asking the bank credit manager for a financing of R2OM to execute a government tender contract for the same government that is requesting a loan of R200B from China.

Everyone has problems!
That R200 you are getting from someone is out of sacrifice and love.
Appreciate it!"

In the first Covid lockdown I bumped into Greenfish, a small sustainable fishing company on Instagram that had to pivot to online sales after its restaurant clients closed. The owner called to thank me for my small order.
6 yrs later they still deliver value on super fresh fish.

My hatred for corruption runs deep. I struggle to understand people who sympathise with those who commit it.

South Africa is the most religious tolerant country in the world.
