Cde Rodney, You are so correct NATIONALISM is a possibility. We should rally all leftists with the movement to support this cause. It remains one of the important struggles or campaigns that our generation should be proud of waging. Mindful of all those of our leaders particularly in the ANC who are part of this capital in mining, we need not be apologetic and it will not come on a silver platter.They should be told and and be made to understand that this is the only way to liberate the poor and the working class in this country.
I was listening to after the 8 debate on SAFM this morning (Tim Modise's Show) and Cde Floyd was articulating our position as the PYA on the matter of nationalisation of Mines and there was this capitalist clowner journalist from Business Day. I must take off my hat for the Spokesperson of the ANCYL he was a marvel. Cde Floyd you were very clear and progressive in articulating this cause. I was amazed with your calculated and meticulous presentation of facts why the call for nationalisation of mines by relating it as well to document produced by the Real Congress of the People of 1955, the Revolutionary Freedom Charter! Cde Floyd keep it up representing our views with such high quality debate and advancement of positions taken at any given time in the ANCYL. Ufasimba is very proud to have amongst us comrades like Cde Floyd in our ranks. Having said that it does not mean any hero-glorification of Cde Floyd however credit must given when it is due. Amandla!
