You study THEIR books, you go to THEIR schools, you learn THEIR information, THEIR language, THEIR styles, THEIR perceptions, so when you come out of school you can do a humdinger of a job solving European's problems, but you can't solve your own.~Dr Amos Wilson #sabc #Sunday – at Cape Town, South Africa

“We are, to a very great extent, what we are today as a people as the result of believing lies presented as truth."~Dr Amos Wilson #shangolashu #Afrika @DefineRacism1 @ReadaBookL @ReadaBookSA #Sunday #SundayThoughts #SundayMotivation #sabcnews #sundayvibes – at Cape Town, South Africa

"We have to teach our black children black history; tell them about our black heroes, our black culture." ~ Steve Biko #Africa #Shangolashu #Thursday #ThursdayMotivation @ReadaBookL @ReadaBookSA @futureleadersrw #ThursdayThoughts – at Milnerton, South Africa

It is my belief that education must liberate students from the political and economic forces that subjugate our people, and from the low self-esteem and self-hate that oppression Inculcates in many of its victims. ~ Prof E'skia Mpahlele @DefineRacism1 @ReadaBookL @ReadaBookSA – at Milnerton, South Africa

Education should equip people to break down imposed barriers to self realisation. Self realisation can only be valid, however, if the needs of one's community are served by it.~Prof Eskia Mphahlele #shangolashu #Afrika @ReadaBookL @ReadaBookSA @DefineRacism1 #sabcnews #eNCA – at Milnerton, South Africa

We always opposed the participation of whites in any kind of action because we wanted to get the point across to our people that by their own efforts—and by these alone—change could be brought about. It was a psychological thing. - Prof Robert Sobukwe #Friday #sabcnews #eNCA – at Milnerton, South Africa

IT’S NECESSARY THAT YOU BE BACKWARDS! You must avoid things that have some meaning to you and flock towards things that are destructive to your future or else we wouldn't be oppressed. ~ Dr Amos Wilson #shangolashu #Afrika @ReadaBookL @ReadaBookSA – at Milnerton, South Africa

I had many times before in Pretoria seen tanned Afrikaners supervise African road gangs. A white man stood, with hunched shoulders, hands in the pockets, speaking his instructions with the aid of a trembling index finger. ~ Prof E'skia @DefineRacism1 @ReadaBookL @ReadaBookSA – at Milnerton, South Africa

'I had taken it for granted that he ought to be there and getting work done by merely pointing a finger. But now when I came upon similar road workers I was filled with impotent anger.' ~ Prof E'skia Mpahlele #shangolashu #Afrika @DefineRacism1 @ReadaBookL @ReadaBookSA #sabcnews – at Milnerton, South Africa
