SADTU Teachers at Work, with logo, smaller.jpg 28 November 2016 SADTU mourns the death of Fidel Castro The South African Democratic Teachers' Union dips its flag in honour of the late Commander-in-Chief of the Cuban revolution, Comrade Fidel Castro. Throughout his life Cde Fidel stood against all forms of injustices upon those who could not defend themselves. He fearlessly and gallantly marshalled the global south in pursuit of freedom from all forms of colonialism and imperialism. He was a firm believer of emancipation through universally accessible education, health care, other basic human needs and the right to self determination. Cde Castro personified international solidarity in theory and in practice. As education workers, we take many lessons from his life's story. We are calling upon all of humanity to rally behind one of Cde Castro's lifelong missions to realize access to quality education for all. Let us stand against the commodification of education and ensure that it remains a public good and a basic human right in his honour. Long live the spirit of the Cuban people. Long live the spirit of Cde Fidel Castro!!
