Earlier this month Dr. @red_trevor & Team launched a new report titled "Energy Racism: The Electricity Crisis in South Africa" He highlights many of the issues we conveniently ignore when discussing the energy crisis and a green energy transition 🤔🇿🇦https://t.co/aCqZSqXxBX

Great Space from @rivonia_circle yesterday. Inspiring to hear lots of talk about social movements. The challenge is how do we move from having a conversation about freedom to delivering that vision. Something that we have been thinking about and will be piloting in KZN🚀

If you are working on climate issues then you should definitely read @Prof_FSultana paper on the unbearable heaviness of climate coloniality. We do need to get into these issues more & stop pretending that don't exist! 🤔 https://t.co/gr8lhWuF9L

Indigenous entrepreneurship may well be the driver of social innovation. There's a major opportunity to look at how SA🇿🇦 begins to better value our indigenous knowledge in the social innovation space. https://t.co/XigzcuEAWU via @ConversationEDU

“It’s not foreigners behind our failures. All fingers point to the real culprits – all South African, who hold power in the citadels of authority across the country.” Must read from @Jay_Naidoo who asks where has our humanity gone?? 👇🏾

Human rights, social solidarity and justice were the DNA of our past. Let’s resurrect that. Then hopefully we can breathe the life of humanity back into our desperate South African nation. #stopxenophobia #OperationDudula https://t.co/MK5FZoYFHI

Fantastic interview with Beverly Wright. Numerous parallels that can be drawn to our situation in South Africa. It’s no coincidence that floods impact vulnerable people. https://t.co/vbg7yqkpR1

Insightful discussion last night with @Tessa_Dooms and @rivonia_circle it does seem like there's lots of room to innovate education in SA. Could cooperative schools be part of the solution? 🤔Have a look at what they are👀 https://t.co/8Rty3Zs8QK

1/2🧵 “We were colonised by Christianity, patriarchy and a very euro-centric approach to capitalism, which completely undermined our traditional value system and our traditional political economy." Dr. Ella on harnessing the power of indigenous knowledge for social innovation🤔
