Dr @MbuyiseniNdlozi, I trust you are keeping well and warm during these cold days sweeping across parts of country.πΏπ¦
I agree wholeheartedly with you that our engagements should never descend into ad hominem attacks or belittle education. Education must be valued and defended, for it remains the foundation upon which our children build their futures.
At the same time, it is worth remembering that wisdom is not confined to the classroom. Lived experiences also carry deep insights that enrich society. We must appeal to those who are "educated" to be mindful not to present themselves as the sole custodians of knowledge or to treat others as less wise. They should not speak over communities or appear to be lecturing them on how to advance their struggles.
I am of the view that the in public discourse, the "educated strata" of society should set a good example for children, who each morning commit to the disciplined routine of schooling, by showing respect for the voices and lived experiences of those "less educated". Without such respect, children may grow up believing that disregarding the experiences of the "less educated" is the proper way to engage with others.
My good Dr, I will argue that education achieves its highest purpose when it listens, learns, and collaborates with society in humility. In that way, it becomes not only fashionable, but also inclusive and transformative.
Thank you for engaging my post. Wishing you a pleasant weekend.ππ½πΏπ¦
Completely disrespectful to South African law and our police officers. Why are they mistreating their kids in this way? While the United States of America is deporting everyone, our government will be held accountable.
South Africans just dropped over R100K for Oom Kaarl Sanders in one day. This proves it: the real line isnβt race, itβs patriotism. Oom Kaarl, our hero abused by thugs for years, is finally getting the respect he deserves. Proudly South African. Letβs keep showing up for our own. πΏπ¦β€οΈ
#ThankYouOomKaarl
Can we crowd fund for Warrant Officer Sander as a national appreciation?
This is a cop who had to fight to keep his special skill allowance of R1k after being refused promotion. Only to have his coffee machine stolen.
His crime? He was doing his job well. #MadlangaCommission

@busisiwe_MD No one has ever disputed that we should build together, Busi.
In fact, in order to build together, we should all start by building in our respective countries.
How are the illegal Nigerians/Zimbabweans benefitting South Africa?
