Greetings,
What was written by Dr Lombo, on *Sunday Times 21 June 2009*, is more than accurate about how former Model C schools are ran. I do not think there is a need though, for the amendment of the South African Schools Act by developing an anti-discrimination Policy only. We need a complete societal revolution and an absolute transform of mindset as South Africans (both white ad black). The Model C schools will never change through legislation only, but will eventually change as time go through being part of our plans as the National Liberation Movement in trying to achieve a total liberation of our people.*“Everything, which exists, exists of necessity. But equally everything which exists is doomed to perish, to be transformed into something else. Thus, what is “necessary” in one time or place becomes “unnecessary” in another. Everything begets its opposite which is destined to overcome and negate it*.” Karl Marx. Those schools approved the objectives of colonialism and were mini-Britain and mini-Dutch in foundation, however today, they are part of a non-racial society plan that seeks to correct the social ills created by the colonizers. Meaning their foundation is soon to diminish and perish. Our Black African Academics and Researchers must then develop a more revitalized, dynamic, standard, adaptable and relevant curriculum to the challenges and priorities of our South African and Africa in particular. This may apply to your secondary scholar, where they study African Economy & Engineering (Agriculture, Rural Development & Construction, and Mining & Energy), African Mathematics & Science and African History. Meanwhile your primary scholar is taught, basic African languages (how to read, write and count), patriotism and the basics of our education. This education system will make young people be useful to the contribution of South African Socialism and to the developmental state envisaged by Africa, not by Caucasians and the western world. “*The total liberation of Africa will come from the South”.* Kwame Nkrumah. Our education should be liberated, compulsory, and free, in pursuit of South African Socialism, total transformation of Africa in particular, and remove the global capitalist education system that confused our people to compete with people who have no contribution to the land and its people. The mindsets of our people should be similarly to those of Cuba, Venezuela, etc, that provide the nations children with a useful education for their own society. Our children must learn about ubuntu, patriotism and more about the civilization of their own continent, like the manuscripts of Timbak-Tu, etc. As South Africans, we must be able to break the capitalist chains through a creation of an education system, responsive to our own objectives.* “**Men make their own history, but they do not make it just as they please; they do not make it under circumstances chosen by themselves, but under circumstances directly encountered, given and transmitted from the past*”. The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Napoleon (1852). I believe that we have enough as this country to change the past and achieve the South African Socialism and if only government would work hard with society. *Working together, we can do more. * Socialism, *Cde Sive “Madala” Gumenge* *YCLSA Brian Bunting District Working Committee * *SASCO Tisha Vanga Branch Executive Member* *CPUT CSRC Member* *Western Cape**,* * * *076 8945 800* (*Writing in his personal capacity)* -- Sive Gumenge Young Communist League of South Africa Brian Bunting District Executive Member Western Cape 076 894 5800 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You are subscribed.
