@zilevandamme Turns out we might not have been sending our best people... the tributes we sent, well the US is sending those ones back... eish, maan, not even good enough for Hunger Games US, so back to Hunger Games Mzansi (now with added spice for these contestants). 😆

@mshamitera I'm reporting and muting all of the ones I find - hopefully people will start getting the message that abusing emergency tags for shameless self-promotion isn't a smart plan.

@nigeltpatel it can be useful to have a sounding board sometimes, who can listen while you frame your own truth + narrative. #GoodForYou

@MichaelOwenZA open meetings are good, as long as people feel free to be on campus without fear of intimidation. Not sure we're there now?

[Sherry Solman @sherrysolman]

@MichaelOwenZA Thoughtful piece. But how do you get more white folks to engage if they're all sitting at home mad because UCT is shutdown?

[Sherry Solman @sherrysolman]

@MichaelOwenZA I think #UCTOpen will create space for hearing from a broad range of voices? Else the unlistened-to end up more silent?

[Sherry Solman @sherrysolman]

@burbdweller I agree 100%! We need dialogue, and we need #UCTOpen

[Sherry Solman @sherrysolman]

@stephenmarquard All the more reason to find ways to keep #UCTOpen...

[Sherry Solman @sherrysolman]

@MichaelOwenZA If there's going to be progress, there has to be dialogue. If there's going to be dialogue, we need #UCTOpen.

[Sherry Solman @sherrysolman]

@AGFaull I agree, dialogue needs #UCTOpen if there's going to be any progress.
