Democracy isnโ€™t a one-day event; it's an everyday practice. The crises we are facing as a nation: our democracy under threat, our hopelessness, our lack of participation, the violence, the hunger, the literal sewage in our streetsโ€ฆ these issues were made over decades, and itโ€™s going to take decades of unmaking to fix them. No one can sit that out, itโ€™s going to take all of us. But it is not impossible. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ We, @Mobilize_ZA, @ForDemocracySa, @MVC_SA and @capture_beyond will be sharing 10 ways you can start making civic engagement part of your lifestyle before and after 4 November. ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ South Africa needs you. Letโ€™s get started. ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ #BeyondStateCapture #Mobilize #DefendOurDemocracy #ActiveCitizens #ParticipatoryDemocracy #FixLocal #MyVoteCounts #WozaLGE2026 #MakeItCount

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. KNOW THE LAW. Today, it is important to remember that everyone has rights, regardless of their documentation status. Police and immigration officials must act within the law, and no one should be unlawfully arrested, detained, intimidated, or denied their constitutional rights. Knowing your rights can help protect you and those around you. @KopanangAfrica @LHR_SA @LRCSouthAfrica @AmnestySAfrica @CHR_HumanRights @WLCCapeTown @SERI_RightsSA @capture_beyond @UAH_za @equal_education @EElawcentre @CoRMSA @CentreEnvRights

It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the assassination of a beloved activist, Comrade Mokoena Letsie. A firm defender of human rights, a caring neighbour and an active citizen, Mokoena was a member of a civil society coalition working to improve local government accountability. We mourn his loss and honour his commitment to ensuring dignity for all. Rest in Power. Read the Statement from the Solidarity Action Committee Collective here: beyondstatecapture.org.za/wpโ€ฆ #BeyondStateCapture #Glencore #FreePalestine #MokoenaLetsie @capture_beyond, Potch for Palestine, Solidarity Action Committee Collective, WASP, GIWUSA, Sa BDS Coalition

#RSA๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ: Tomorrow is the submission deadline for comments on South Africaโ€™s draft Protected Disclosures Bill. But does it really protect whistleblowers? ๐Ÿ”—Read @PPLAAF, @OpenSecrets_ZA and @LRCโ€™s position paper here to get involved โžก๏ธ bit.ly/4novVtg Protection isnโ€™t a legal abstraction; it affects everyone because, you never know, you could be a whistleblower too.

Civil society organisations are calling for an extension to the public submissions deadline on the Protected Disclosures Bill. Key gaps remain in its current form; from weak reporting systems to inadequate support for whistle-blowers. Read more: bit.ly/4dFXVoT

Politicians scapegoat Black Africans to keep South Africans busy so they can facilitate the plunder of our beautiful and sacred land. Black bodies aren't your borders.

In the lead-up to Human Rights Day (21 March), weโ€™re teaming up with our partners at @capture_beyond to spotlight the link between health and human rights. Because health doesnโ€™t exist in isolation, itโ€™s shaped by access to water, food, and a safe environment. State Capture and Beyondโ€™s campaign focuses on universal access to healthcare. Want to learn more? Listen to their #CaptureThis podcast: beyondstatecapture.org.za/caโ€ฆ #BeyondStateCapture #HumanRightsDay #RightToHealth #HealthJustice

[On-Air] The Treatment Action Campaign (@TAC), Doctors Without Borders (@MSF), and Kopanang Africa Against Xenophobia (@KopanangAfrica), represented by @SECTION27news, have filed an urgent contempt application after South African authorities failed to comply with an earlier High Court compelling the state to restore safe and unhindered access to the Yeoville and Rosettenville clinics in Johannesburg, South Africa. Khuselwa Dyantyi, Attorney and Advice Office Supervisor at Section 27 joins @unathibf with an update from the ground. #AfricaWorldHour #HealthcareAccess #RightToHealth #SouthAfrica #Xenophobia
