JY LEES NOU #FeesMustFall
Dit is ’n week waaroor daar nog lank in die geskiedenisboeke geskryf gaan word, meen kenners. Niemand kan die impak van die studenteprotes #FeesMustFall betwyfel nie - en met behulp van sosiale media het studente die hele land oor hieraan begin deelneem by die meeste groot universiteite. Dit heers op sosiale media, op die voorblaaie, selfs op die loopplank by die Suid-Afrikaanse Modeweek. Daar word wyd oor #NationalShutDown in die internasionale media geskryf en selfs die Britte gaan vandag in Londen byeenkom om hul ondersteuning te wys.
Hier is ’n paar foto's, twiets en aanhalings wat dié week gedeel is. As jy voel ons het belangrike inligting uitgelaat, laat hoor van jou op sosiale media, of los kommentaar onder dié artikel.

Aubrey Matshiqi, onafhanklike politieke ontleder, het [gister] vroeër die oggend op die Universiteit Stellenbosch se Buro vir Ekonomiese Ondersoek se jaarkonferensie gesê: “#FeesMustFall is nie oor universiteitsgeld nie, soos ­#RhodesMustFall nie oor ’n beeld was nie. Dit is oor goed wat nie verander het sedert 1994 nie. Die jeug is in 1994 die koninkryk van die hemele belowe, maar vir hulle het dit nie ’n werklikheid geword nie.”
Songezo Zibi, redakteur van Business Day, het geskryf die gebeure is ’n aanduiding dat tradisionele politiek minder relevant word. “Dis ’n nuwe bevrydingsbeweging wat gebore is uit frustrasie omdat die parlementêre prosesse nie die vlak van verandering teweegbring wat mense wil hê nie.”
Op Daily Maverick
When Nelson Mandela died in December 2013, South Africa went through a period of mourning and soul searching about who we were and where we were heading. We have been in a state of leaderless turmoil for years and moments like Madiba’s death forced a hard look at ourselves. This week, the youth of South Africa shook this nation to the core; they took their destiny into their hands and put a failing political leadership on notice. Through #FeesMustFall, they have shown what true leadership, courage and solidarity means.
