Black history month: what I think…

We have an untold history of black and white society, the only thing that we know is that   we have a racial imbalance history of which it doesn’t help us anymore but helps the politicians to score political points that’s why the system   is implemented in our schools, young children are told how we have been racially segregated by the whites but they are not put in a class of emotional healing because some of the events that took place around the era of segregation they have a negative influence in our young society and can instil anger and that leads to vengeance and there would be no peace in our world. Nature doesn’t not have a description of race: yes dictionaries have it but mother nature gives us benefits equally so, if a black man goes under a tree it doesn’t dry up and if a black man gets in into a river to swim he does not change the colour nature treat us fairly and it does not give us a definition of race and the reason why we should worry about our skin col...

If I do it on record time, know that there is a hand of God in it.

Letter to my self In this world we go through a lot and I mean a lot, have you ever wished that you could be someone else or maybe trade your life for something else, yeah that’s me right now, so much pressure I am facing. Have you ever prayed so hard that you run out of words to say to God? Well if you went through this you are one of our own. My strength is gone my mind wants to keep on pushing hard but my soul is down I think I have reached a rock-bottom, where do I draw my strength back   because even if I pray I still feel the same, that’s how life is right? Even though I pray a lot and not see the outcomes of my prayers I still have faith and trust in the Lord that if I come out of this situation on record time all the glory belongs to him and him alone because I have exhausted all my energy, put in more time. Well let me tell you I am a student and its hard right now, in a situation like this someone might do drugs or drink but I decide to write how I feel, ...

Why Are Millions of Citizens Not Registered to Vote?

"It's hard, I know, but picture yourself as a dissatisfied voter". We live in a society where we have too much democracy for our own good that we even choose not to vote, but when things turns bad we want to go and barricade the streets in the name of exercising our rights fighting against the government, we  also have a  gut to compare parties saying ANC is not better than the EFF or DA, the reality is we wont live to see the change we want in our society until we decide to go to the polls to vote for the parties that we think they can bring the change our society need.   While apathy has long been thought to be the cause of low voter turnout among young South Africans, new research by the Institute for Security Studies (ISS) reveals the real reason why many will not be at the polls next year– 2019. Titled “Do you want my vote? Understanding the factors that influence voting among young South Africans‚” the study found that ‘apathy’ ...
                                                             CLOTHY TOP   Each day, we put on clothes that do more than just cover up bodies. We choose clothes that represent our personalities, our moods, the times we live in, our ambitions and our desires. Who are the people behind the designs we wear every day? These fashion designers who have made fashion a huge industry, and whose work is as controversial, and as influential, as traditional art. These are some of the designers who have dressed the world's most famous people—and are hugely famous in their own right, these people started at a lower level like the fast growing local brand in Gauteng based in Soshahanguve. Themba Dennise Moyane  is one of Africa’s finest knitwear designers and the man behind the vintage fashion brand clothy top. ...
Blood, knoc k-out or surrender: Musangwe games. This is musangwe, a brutal, bare-knuckle traditional fight club in which members of the Venda people gather to brawl. Though much has changed in South Africa  over the past 50 years, here, in the rolling hills of the north, musangwe remains the same. Boys and men turn out each week to partake in these short bursts of violent beatings that test their opponents’ toughness and prove their own. The rules are simple, and vicious: no gloves, no headgear, and no time limits. Even if you are knocked out, you can get up and continue to fight. Only when one fighter submits can the fight come to an end. No gambling. Just fighting. Aside fro m an injury or two, fighters walk away with little more than respect and bragging rights. “We’re not trying to hurt each other,” said the current president of musangwe, Musa Malange, who owns an internate cafĂ©, “We’re brothers testing one another.” The fights started officially in 182...

Clean up for the state of the province address By-line: Solomon Maseko E-mail: solomon4j@gmail.com Twitter: @mduduzisolomon  Video: https://youtu.be/Kt5Axp56B5o Audio: https://soundcloud.com/user-874414279/mdepartment Story   The Tshwane Department of Agriculture has embarked on a journey to prepare a clean way for the State of The Nation Address since from Monday the whole team including the leaders went to Soshanguve to pick up the papers. Nokukhanya  Nxumalo  one of the campaign leaders felt that the Soshanguve community did not prove to care about their place being clean as they have been called to also take part in this campaign but not even one community member showed out even the councillor did not come. Nokukhanya also said that this will be an annual event they wish to take to the other places in Gauteng.        Enforcement of waste disposal management remains a big problem in Sout...
