The PYA is back.....there is nothing that can unite us more than action. I can't remember the last time there was a joint national programme of the PYA. Perhaps it was airing the time of the Zuma trials. Through his 'starringism', a belief that he and only he poses the ability to lead the revolution, the then ANCYL President single handedly oversaw the worst period of PYA relations.
It comforting to see organisations of young people mobalised around a common issue. Young revolutionaries demanding economic justice for workers collectively, as opposed to social justice for an individual. We will never be united by grandiose speeches, nothing but action can bring the workers and poor to the realization that indeed their cause is shared one. Less yada yada!!! Unity in action!!! -----Original Message----- From: Khaya Xaba <[email protected]> Sender: [email protected] Date: Thu, 30 Aug 2012 09:39:06 To: yclsa-eom-forum<[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Subject: [YCLSA Discussion] MANAMELA, MOSENOGI, MASONDO AND TSOTETSI JOIN STRIKING WITS WORKERS * YCLSA Press Alert *August 30, 2012* YCLSA JOINS WITS WORKERS ON STRIKE* The Progressive Youth Alliance (PYA) composed of the Young Communist League of South Africa (YCLSA), African National Congress Youth League (ANC YL), South African Students Congress (SASCO) and the Congress of South African Students (COSAS) will on Thursday 30 August 2012 pledge solidarity and join the striking workers at Wits University.
