I really don't think there's something beautiful about this video!. Young women it's okay sometimes not to accept expensive gifts from a boyfriend. 🤔💔 do these kind of kids even care ukhuti they're humiliating their parents out there?😔
Looking down on UNISA, Fort Hare, Turfloop etc. as a black person when you consider how we’ve been historically restricted and financially excluded from other institutions, is very confusing to me.
You guys are way too young to be this realistic, you should be as ambitious and idealistic as you can, great things weren’t built by young people who were playing it safe,
Invite with an obscure colour theme so you must get a fit, location ? Some place in Muldersdrift. Food and drinks ? Still on you. Then umuntu still wants a gift ? Lmao.
I think feeling like you're "behind in life" doesn't always come from comparing yourself to others but also comparing yourself to who you previously were or what you feel like you should have become
South African media has a dangerous habit of only mentioning nationality when it comes to crime.
Whenever foreign professors make great discoveries, they simply mention the university.
They clearly trying to further a specific narrative about foreigners.
A Nigerian man was arrested for drug possession in Brakpan. Police allowed him to make a phone call, and his friend arrived with more than R3000 bribe - he was arrested too.
There’s something rather dangerous about making yourself the person who “says what everyone is thinking” because there’s a reason they’re not saying it and you’ll learn when it’s too late.
Julius was right, The African Union is full of enablers.
How can we expect presidents that are committing ethnic violence in their countries to call out police brutality in another ?
And the funny thing is that, people will come do threads about the anti-blackness at UCT/Wits and how it affected their performance. Yet use proximity to those institutions to look down on others.
Those institutions were the first to give us a chance and are the reason we even had the few doctors, teachers and social workers in our communities during apartheid and even well into the early years of our democracy.
- finished a double major degree @ 20 with Dean’s list
- Got accepted into masters at 3 top 20 international universities
- Got interviews on national TV and radio
- Started my first book with a major publisher
- Got recruited by top 3 asset management firm in the world
Fat fingers, no wedding ring and clutching her degrees. Not often does one picture perfectly capture the perpetual success and failure of the modern black woman
I really have no reverence for any royal families. The entire concept of “royalty” ie. being deserving of power and fortune purely because of your name never sat well with me.
MTN Group is seeking a visa dispensation to recruit electrical engineers from other African countries to help manage its towers and network as it transitions some infrastructure off the electricity grid in the face of intense load-shedding.
I’ll even argue that anything worth achieving requires a good support system to do well.
From starting a business to furthering your studies amongst others.
I think the reason my generation says -insert objectively large sum on money - is “nothing” is because we measure things in luxury car and Louis Vuitton quantum’s (because of social media of course)
