    I am really glad that they mentioned how students have used protest movements on campus to springboard their political careers.

      That's why as a Science student I never joined the Fees Must Fall protest(They intimidated us to join - I had PTSD for a week after the strikes in my residence.).
      To BA students, getting arrested is a +1 on your CV , but Science....(Many or almost all companies will never employ a ex-convict even if it was for Fees Must fall).
      Not like I was not sympathizing with fellow students, but I wouldn't risk joining it.

    Thank you for another insightful interview and that you've stepped outside of journalism. I look forward to the next part of this interview, where I hope the issue of the impact of the critical studies courses and the identity politics they propagate, will be covered.

    Definitely an improvement on previous episodes mainly because Adam Habib has an obvious enthusiasm. What I don't understand about our education authorities is that they seem to ignore the superb free global education provided on the internet. The Khan Academy is one I've studied through and its lessons are of higher quality than those I received in the private schools I went to. What originally led me to it is a TED talk by its founder from 2011 ua-cam.com/video/gM95HHI4gLk/v-deo.html . I'd be interested whether Adam has heard of it or whether our education departments or schools are using it. If not why not?

    BOYKIES BIG IN JAPAN!(NOT SINGAPORE!):
    South Africa's universities' universal global impact: In August 2017; Sydney Brenner Wits MBBCh 1951, Nobel Prize, Medicine, 2002 and a whole lot of things in between and Dr. Jonathan Dorfan, UCT (Physics), 1969, former head of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center(SLAC) and a whole lot of things in between, were respectively awarded by the Emperor of Japan the Order of the Rising Sun, Grand Cordon, First Class and the Order of the Rising Sun, Gold and Silver, 2nd Class. These are the highest and second highest honours that any any scientist can receive from the Japanese state. They were given these highly prestigious awards for their role in the establishment of the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology(OIST), Japan's flagship university of science and technology, designed to put Japan back at the forefront of global scientific and technological research. They were the only two people to receive state honours for the establishment of OIST.
    This is what they created:

    Hellen I will be very honest with you and I will go straight to shooting my question.
    What would you do to help upcoming politicians become a mayor and a premier like you became? I want to be the mayor of Cape Town and Premiere of Western Cape.

    • @selwynaddinallkallardtv6761
      @selwynaddinallkallardtv6761 5 років тому

      Mayor positions are for Kallards and Premier for Whites, maybe you can take over from Mmusi Maimane?

    There is something more obvious that you've failed to go into, Helen (maybe you do in the next part). And that is the notion that something needs to "fall." It is inherently destructive. To demand that Whiteness needs to fall (be destroyed) as a way to solve South Africa's problems, can be extremely threatening to our social fabric. In collective psychology this is evidenced of group envy, where a group is seen to be having a desired advantage. Instead of building up and enabling the deprived to gain what is desired, the desired advantage is destroyed instead, just so neither group has the advantage. Sadly the [whatever] must fall movements have assumed this destructive characteristic.
