I haven't had a phone for 2 days. Turns out, I have a lot of time to read. I'll probably finish this tomorrow evening. Well written, easy to read, inspiring book.

Great artwork, and a touching story. You should read Adv Douglas Ainslie’s piece. He questions the accuracy of the "blue-panties" story (not dress), essentially saying it isn’t supported by the TRC amnesty evidence. He also raises other gender issues. ccac.concourttrust.org.za/up…
You see a piece of art and years later, you realise its significance. ‘The Man who sang and the Woman who kept silent.’

Yesterday, your biggest worry was whether you would get enough votes to become mayor. Today, you find out you won’t even make it into council? Why okare this job a nightmare? Di polotiki tsona a si tsona.

Ntate @ZakesMda launched his book at @WitsUniversity this week. Among those in attendance were SACP Chair Blade Nzimande and General Secretary @sollymapaila F3. The book is a biographical account of Chris Hani’s life. If you know me, you know this is my favourite literary genre

AFSA is recognised as one of Africa's leading arbitral centre’s. It brings together members from SADC and collaborates with arbitrators through CAJAC and BRICS. I might not know politics, but law I know very well.

Right before a big moment in your life, a distraction will show up. The idea is to get you so consumed by this one thing that you lose sight of what you were truly meant to be doing. Don’t lose focus.

I hope over the next few years, smart people work on consolidating our vote under 1 or 2 parties again. Because this is not it. Especially parties that are ideally the same. They can go differ and debate at the policy conference or something.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy. I was able to vote in less than 5 mins. Well done to the @IECSouthAfrica

Appearing in other divisions of the High Court is always such a shocking experience. JHB and PTA may have spoiled us.

Wednesday's local elections decide who runs your water, electricity connections, roads and refuse for the next five years. It's the sphere of government you touch most and scrutinise least. Here's a small guide to thinking it through, whoever you end up backing.

Being a judge sounds very complicated 🧐
Gauteng High Court Judge Norman Davis’ decision to give legal advice to his elderly former in-laws when they were struggling to prevent the seizure of their property resulted in him facing a possible impeachment inquiry – until his accuser defended him. news24.com/southafrica/crime…

This is why we should allow people to question systems, protest, and change the rules. Don’t defend something simply because you have been doing it for long.
"The poor die defending the rules that keep them poor because they mistake obedience for belonging." Issshhhuuuu!!!

Ghandi’s ethos says we should resist injustice without hatred. It requires the oppressed to be disciplined.Rather withdraw your cooperation, boycott, hunger strike. Arundhati Roy says that is a performance that requires an audience that actually cares. You cant boycott university

And ultimately, relationships are about taking turns. Any relationship where only one person ever gets a turn, to be prioritised, to be helped, to be ill, to be vulnerable, to need, to be…whatever, will ultimately suffer. Because everyone needs and deserves a turn.
