And were going to tell you about a piece of. The bearded man in there might have been doing in. The 1st year but there were 50 of us in our time and 16 year there were like 20 we had to see people that we knew very closely our friends not coming back to school. But. It was a very odd figure and a very high figure well were going to accept the increase oh were going to fight and we were clear that were going to fight. To space we dont have a language we dont think that the way the university structured favors students. If you think that you know theres no way a student can never win anything. But clear message that we have for the diversity is that we cant continue like this. I must know of 3rd no no no. Im not good. Enough what do you want in south africa large. Enough to know. This is something you bought i look at the freedom charter and the police and army these but our fathers were martyrs see the grief that you see the run in this university of lions who we see which started started on yes. We have beaten as black people excluded from the Education System for such a long time if we are interested about the sting called transformation then we have to ensure that this justice. This is like a Food Security project whatever food is produced room and bank and gets given to the students that have been fisheries of the food bank program. Many academics find themselves throughout the year being approached by students for money to buy food you have put the students who have to sit in the same cross or students who when their 1st year when they pass matric the parents buy them a seat has been told b. M. W. So they can drive to university. The inequality is far more benefits at a place like that university and other former you know English Speaking war you know the top white universities and these things contribute to the kind of consciousness and the politics that have evolved in the feast must for movement. You sit in these institutions and you think youre in cambridge there was purposeful these institutions were made primarily for white middle class men. These institutions were in fact a primary part of building and developing a Party South Africa and colonial africa. Was. Not only a students oppressed by the violence of the system in that they financially excluded but saw workers right and to an even worse extent because workers have even less agency than students to write in some ways the University Needs us to exist as opposed to workers who can be more easily replaced. And not employed by over it but knew where and contracted companies in 2001 when this outsourcing started the employers who were employed by vets they now became ex vets and that and what they lost was up to half this the levies and the i had medicaid 8. Im from the. Idea its part of the same struggle you want a more just society you want to Dignified Society and you want to dig commodified university. We are very smart for that a lot of money i think go back into our communities and to make sure that the uplifting and it. Might. Fail at. History is a nightmare from which were still trying to wait. If you want people to have a shot it changing the social economic reality that theyve inherited then you have to prioritize Higher Education. Post 994 we get a message occasion which means that these universities can open up to black people and to poor people and to woman in ways that was you started to not possible as you have this happening you have the state withdrawing subsidy. It was an argument made in the ninetys particularly by people in positions of power at the time that we needed to think more critically about priorities and it was felt that Higher Education wasnt one of those priorities all of. The big universe. The ones we the elite used to go and preach the fees by double digits. The logical thing to do because as the subsidies gay you want to retain quality you. The poorer universities couldnt do it so they did increase fees but by no one among us. This is a special moment for me as i symbolically assume the vicechancellor ship of that universe it. Was my dad was. God. They didnt make me sit on the floor i came yeah i walked to them and i said. I was criticized by the vicechancellor they said i gave birth to the struggle to give oxygen to the substances they write i did i do not know those who didnt want. Good news if you know do you know the 2 need to know why do. You not understand now. That mandate is to keep this university. A Quality Institution and that means i need to keep its income streams so theres no way im giving zito until the state makes up the. I dont have be but in his student days was probably the equivalent of what we are now. I dont mind him that he wasnt life but we hear that he was focused. At him sees himself both as a scholar of the left and as a participant of the left now finding himself in a position of authority in which that authority has constantly been challenged by this emerging student. I believe profoundly that the world will be a father better place. If we lived and created a more egalitarian outcome. The struggle for a free Education System is an important player in that together with. Limited. Release i have. Had a meeting of this nature taking place where the University Management the executive committee of council would have to sit in front of students and engage with the students it is what intelligent person whos who to whom. No news under new management and not management to sit in the. News. Servants theres only been 9 University Assemblies this is a creation where the entire University Comes and decides on a particular issue a burning issue. Of who. Had blocked us out of and the fact was that completely shut it down did the private security temples control the but campus control was on our side was and we understand that they wanted to do it on the lawns because its much easier to disperse people in an open area. The around 1 oclock they still hadnt opened it up i was off the hook with must the power structure in the university been immersed and actually the students really for a moment for a while were in control of this the reason was. Was. That in the last time we had a significant generational conflict was the sixtys early seventys and i think were entering that moment again. Youre beginning to see it in multiple manifestations you seen it in the emergence of student protests in south africa. The was that statue symbolizes the exclusion of black bodies from a particular space and it stands there proudly at the entrance of the university and thats symbolism is a representation of how much needs to change was was that our judging. If you can have an education that is number one f. Or centric way african ideas. At the center and important and over emphasize as waste and ideas ah we have african ideas being valued out african Knowledge Systems being valued. Then for me that is d. Couldnt i say should. We got comfortable at settlement house. It was so important in building new nitty insulin down amongst ourselves. On. Education team also started to playing around with the idea of what would the library look like so it provided also in no tentative it created a world we wanted to live in. In the room of philips with us to come and teach the ideas and find expression lets put them to the test this thing through together. I mean there was something about affirming a way of knowing something that has not been affirmed in this place was a language a song your grandmother sang with you to feel something you know in your whole life has been affirmed. And for you to claim like that space is to take your own the land into. Law. By. By monday we had a call to meet the minister and when the minister had engaged us the idea of the 6 percent which is inflation no real increase we bought into the. Stakeholders agreed to encourage their respective constituencies to engage in institutional new causations at universities with a view to achieve if increase of not a higher than the a c. P. I. Related increase of 6 percent for twin to 16. You believe. This genders dont accept this will. Help students much for let you think that god was. The anger among students had left those had joined us. Students had entered the back of parliament and 11 side in the gate was open in the frank and me just intake was when you got inside thats when the. Police respond differently to white protestors and so quite spontaneously a white person curtis is were asked to to offer themselves into the front of the march such that they could protect some of the black students. And it worked once or twice but when it got to parliament and people realized that they these people doesnt matter what color theyre going to storm this parliament this is like and he started given that we need to stop this. Was was. I had never seen the power of students like that i think back i was like you i was it was just you know you were doing this for your children also you cant afford this and yes yes going to these was. Was. Was was was to us was. The emergence of some sort of beginnings of a National Coalition that exists outside of the control of the a. N. C. Allied movements but it really just represents a growing movement that people are realizing that we need to Work Together now to make it against. Militant islam to my movement was. I was. I wouldnt want to hurt her and was. A reminder she is standing there on the stage and i see because this is not going to have this guy must come down it was all staged to be assumed by us. Im going to go. Was the the old the rule Peaceful Movement came about ok nicky it belongs to everyone and no one at the same time and i think thats something that ill do sometimes forget that were stuck to dinner very different way to talk politics that they used to. I got a call from the presidency saying when he says after consultation my v. C. I released a statement saying the University Vice chancellors of the construction as it was. There are some people who said that this is a flip flop actually i dont buy that we see ourselves as progresses but in the kind of Managerial Position and who are governed by the systemic parameters. And when space is opened up we take the opportunities and when systemic around it is opened up afterward is the movie who hate you take the gap now flip flop its understanding how social struggle. Works and to actually me in gauging what i call a structural transformative struggle. Was. That there will be a 0 increase of University Fees in 2060 2 was. The. No that doesnt take the money from here on the fee for people from the oval office and to come to some of the north. Was was. The. Was. The. We want to continue to use the machinery keep them here. But. What is your 1st thing for you to find out were not. Going to. Give up my. Theology. Yes its what we got there we saw things we as leaders felt that it would be irresponsible to take students inside. The fire and. We sold showed us that we went exactly as united and as on the same page as we thought well what resort as like kind of middle class activists was these guys taking the cops on and wanting to storm the union building. These are students from poor black High Education institutions who in fact been struggling around exclusion for a long time was that right that. Was the 1st job and i fear this time it got the comrades who were inside solvents marching politely on the outside and one of its one students wanted to jump on the bus some of these other students were in the end wanted to attack them and say this is how you guys go back to your we started to white institutions and settle for north percent and everythings ok we can do that were going to be excluded next year because we cant afford even the north pacific. Was. Is nothing more violent than poverty and we come from poverty stricken homes and that is why we are fighting for Free Education you say it like you will not be cheated you would not there into is if its a choice but it really isnt because if you do retreat what he lived where it was. Played important role. To trace. One of australias most loved making random. Is under threat is probably agonizing to say but one wild one term president is dedicated you know a lot to say what i want to east makes the woman he spoke. Journeys of danger. And hope.
