Sobukwe's children
This article explores the provocation of the former vice-chancellor of the University of Fort Hare, Dr Mvuyo Tom — made at the university’s centenary celebrations in 2016 — that the #FeesMustFall (#FMF) movement was a misguided and destructive millenarian movement, similar to the great Xhosa Cattle Killing of the 1850s. The article interrogates this proposition by reflecting on the higher education and political dynamics at Fort Hare during the #…

Police arrived and fired on the crowd, igniting 'spontaneous riots'. An Afr…

Beginning with her origins in the remote Eastern Cape, the authors follow Wilson to the University of Cambridge and back into th…

Donald Card (1928–) is a former policeman in South Africa who became the subject of international media attention on 21 September 2004. In a highly publicised and symbolic ceremony of reconciliation inaugurating the Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory Project, he handed back to Mandela two notebooks containing 78 hitherto unknown letters written by Mandela on Robben Island. A starkly contrasting image of Card as a torturer had, however, come to light…
