Connecting some dots

In the 1980s a clique of mostly white lawyers belonged to the Legal Resource Centre which was funded by Ford Foundation, Carnegie and the Rockerfellers.
The LRC was founded in 1979 and pursued public interest law.
In many ways the thesis helps explain why Ndlozi often struggles to engage contemporary socioeconomic issues with analytical depth. The same tendency is visible throughout his PhD work. Personal narrative frequently displaces rigorous engagement with competing evidence, alternative explanations and material realities.
That is why we should be cautious about elevating academic credentials above scrutiny. A PhD is not proof of insight. It is not proof of wisdom. It is not proof that one's conclusions are correct. What matters is the quality of the analysis and the willingness to test ideas against evidence.
The danger arises when people mistake academic status for intellectual authority. Scholarship is a living process of challenge, debate and refinement. Once a scholar stops engaging criticism, stops publishing, stops testing ideas in the marketplace of peer review and public scrutiny, their contribution risks becoming academically inert.
Credentials may command attention, but only ideas can earn respect. And ideas that are insulated from challenge eventually become dogma rather than scholarship. The public should judge arguments on their merits, not on the titles that precede someone's name.

Shouldn’t we start a petition to extend the work and mandate of the Madlanga commisison?We can discuss the mandate or what new form the commisison will take. But my goodness,this commussion could help expose more crooks. And that may serve as a crime deterrent. What do you think?
Dineo Seletswane is a pharmacist, businesswoman, and director of DSM Health, Mining, Construction, and Petroleum. She gained significant public attention and became the focus of investigative reporting by News24 following a controversial R3.5-million private jet trip to London and the subsequent awarding of municipal tenders to her companies.
In 2022, Seletswane undertook a luxury 3 day shopping trip to London on a privately chartered jet, accompanied by the then Ekurhuleni city manager, Imogen Mashazi. The source of funding for the multi million rand flight was never clearly disclosed. Less than a year later, her company DSM Construction was awarded a portion of a major municipal tender for fuel supply through the Ekurhuleni Metro. According to records, the company has since received payments totalling nearly R9.7 million under the contract, including an amount exceeding R565,000 just days before Seletswane publicly denied that her businesses traded with the government.
Journalists also discovered irregularities with her company’s registered business address, which was listed at Sandton’s Leaping Frog Shopping Centre but does not actually exist. A qualified pharmacist by profession, Seletswane previously ran the Jukskei Park Pharmacy and is formally registered as Dineo Precious Kubheka (Seletswane). Court records show she has faced multiple financial legal challenges, including active property attachments and auction orders involving major banks such as Nedbank and Mercantile Bank. She has also been romantically linked to prominent Sandton ophthalmologist Dr Tebogo Maleka, with whom she has shared a residence in Dainfern, Johannesburg.
Siv Ngesi and Vusi Thembekwayo have been standing on business this entire week 🤣
They are true patriots 🇿🇦❤️
They haven't given an inch to the ugly smear campaign the country is facing with regards to illegal immigration push back.
Gents, your voices are key.
Danko 😎✨️🙏🏽
