The good worker = Zimbabwean. Hard working, intelligent, diligent. The bad worker = SAn. Disrespectful, lazy, always misses work on Mondays. This has been the binary framing of workers by business for years. Anti-xenophobia work lacks a theory of capital as an atomising force.
Three important lessons I have learned about life:
1. Never lose diamonds while looking for stones.
2. Be patient, because time always reveals whose loss it truly was.
3. Enjoy it before it becomes a memory, because soon, it will be a memory.
I hope you are having a productive week!

Bafazi, be selfish. Be selfish with your time, your accessibility, your love, your intelligence, your money, your wombs and your mental health. If it doesn’t serve you, BE SELFISH.
FYI: This Wednesday Parliament will be sitting to discuss the Menstrual Health Bill.
Myself and other academics, activists & organisations have spent many years drafting it and we truly hope it can be implemented. 🇿🇦 🩸
