Today marks the 50th year anniversary of the 1976 Soweto Youth Uprising. Alot of them were shot by the apartheid police.
One of the main concern that the youth fought for was being taught all subjects in Afrikaans.
Today some of our parents never received formal education due to Bantu education that was meant to oppress the blacks.
In the midst of everything, today all that we can do is to empower ourselves with free education by all means especially in the community where we come from
May we use this day to pause and do self reflection. Ensure that blood that was shared nourishes our success and progress in life as youth and leaders of tomorrow.
May we build ourselves to be the better leaders, entrepreneurs, scientists, economists, mathematicians, presidents and lawyers of tomorrow.
Never loose hope in education, take full responsibility as we dnt know what the future holds for us.
We wish you a happy Youth day!
