I have just visited @nich_dlamini in hospital and heard first hand his horrible experience. I have instructed @SANParks to suspend all official involved and implement an independent investigation.
Shout out to all municipalities to get hold of us and share schedules in EXCEL/CSV format so we can load them quickly! Please @ your municipality here!
Siya Kolisi remembers that he watched the 2007 World Cup final, which the Springboks won, in a local tavern because he didn’t have a TV at home. He would have been around 16 years old then. Next week he captains South Africa in the 2019 final. Guys. What a thing. 🇿🇦✊🏽
@MmusiMaimane I have so much respect for you and the integrity with which you live your life. Today my heart grieves at what looks like injustice and refusal to do the work needed by others in @Our_DA but I trust for a new space in which we continue the struggle.
Nkokheli @MmusiMaimane you have showed us what the dreams of a young boy from Dobsonville can be. You have been honest, genuine and courageous in all you have done. Your vision was way ahead of its time but it certainly will not die #OneSAForAll
I hope you’re going to reply to the other 5 million of us who think that what you have done is the most regressive step - a strong opposition is good for SA but your return and “colorblindness” is short sighted and will cost our country. #MmusiMaimane is doing the right thing!
We talk a lot about self care, but I think we don’t talk enough about collective care.
Because we belong to each other, taking care of ourselves need not always be in isolation.
If our liberation is bound together, then so is our care.
We are finally out! Thank you so much to all those who have been praying for us and showing your solidarity. Huge thank you to @ZLHRLawyers for the legal representation. So many reflections from the past two days but that’s for another day. Feeling grateful, hopeful, energized!
Trump’s “chosen one” remarks reveals people love messiahs... as long as the content of the term Christ isn’t that pathetic nonviolent crucified fool, Jesus of Nazareth.
No, many Christians want Barabbas.
Let’s face it, if I declared myself the Chosen One and King of the Jews then cancelled a meeting because no one would sell me Greenland, they’d haul my ass into the emergency room on a 5150 before I could finish the sentence.
This afternoon I met Miche Solomon, born Zephany Nurse. She is an incredible young woman. She has been through a hell most cannot even imagine. As is inevitable, the armchair commentators have begun to come for her. "Why does she still love the woman who took her?"#zephanynurse
"She has no empathy for her biological parents", they say. To those people, I say, you have no idea.
Please watch this BRILLIANT interview with John Maytham.

@thisisSJKing I have been holding my breath seeing these headlines reappear. Grateful it's you that sits in this space with her. Not sure anyone else could do this as well or with as much insight.
