Rhodes Must Fall is still a defining moment By Opinion Wandile Kasibe IT WAS during his visit to UCT on June 6, 1966, when Robert Kennedy said: âEach time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistanceâ.
