Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Your responsibility as young intellectuals who must shape the future of this country is to thoroughly engage the ANC on whatever matter through the available platforms and channels. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
It is however important to mention that contradicting the ANC on policy matters should not be the same as the headline and sound bite driven populism of shouting down from rooftops everything the ANC says or does. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
It is indicative of the political maturity in the student movement and the deep understanding of constructive criticism as one of the basic tenets of our organisational philosophy. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The CC approach employed by SASCO in its relationship with the ANC in that it will complement the ANC where it agrees and contradict where it disagrees is encouraged. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
It is impossible to imagine that this can happen successfully without the active involvement of SASCO because of the organization’s primary location in centres of knowledge production and consumption. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The tasks of the revolution during this decisive phase include educating and training a critical mass of ANC members ideologically, politically, academically and morally. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The ANC has determined that we are now in the second phase of our long drawn transition from colonialism of a special type to the National Democratic Society. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
I am asking these practical questions not with the intention of imposing an additional burden on SASCO but because I believe that they are important in order for the student movement to know and fully appreciate its role in the advancement of the National Democratic Revolution. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The question SASCO must answer is whether or not there is any practical & coordinated work undertaken by the organisation in communities, amongst and with the people, consistent with the assertion of the SPOT document: “we are members of the community before we are students.” — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
It is for this reason that when the call was made during the ‘Decade of Freedom’ to render South Africa ungovernable and apartheid unworkable, the student movement formed part of the broader progressive youth movement organised under the auspices of SAYCO. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The progressive student movement in this country has always seen and appreciated its role and duty beyond campus boundaries. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
You were quite correct in this thinking & conceptualisation because the history of the student movement, particularly in the sixties and seventies, is littered with best examples of how a student organisation can truly be committed both in theory and practice to community work. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
I suspect that it is on the basis of this very phrase that you, as an organization, have ‘community work’ as one of the pillars of your day to day struggles. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
And yet the overriding question that must be answered honestly is whether or not the rank and file membership of SASCO fully understands and appreciates the depth of the revolutionary content of such a simple sounding phrase. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The assertion in the SPOT document thus brings SASCO a step closer to being an organisation of organic intellectuals. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
I understand this to mean that SASCO seeks to produce thinking members who are concerned about the challenges facing society in general and are organic to the cause of the people. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Consistent with its historic mission of being the intellectual hub for the Mass Democratic Movement, SASCO asserts in its Strategic Perspective On Transformation (SPOT) Document that "we are members of the community before we are students". #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
SASCO is part of the progressive forces in our society pursuing the objectives of the National Democratic Revolution. #SASCO29 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The 29th Anniversary virtual rally of the South African Students Congress is currently underway under the theme: “Building a modern student movement to deepen the National Democratic Revolution and for the attainment of Working-Class Power.” #SASCO29 https://t.co/9FfSRXOlsV https://t.co/XZL9NaKeNK — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Dr Lubisi, it has been an honour to serve alongside you. You have been an exceptional leader & you will be missed. You’ve done your duty with honour & distinction, and served your country loyally, patriotically & faithfully. We wish you well. We shall miss you. I shall miss you. https://t.co/YrqGj3LsTH — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
When civil servants are committed, when they are ethical and principled, when they understand the true meaning of public service, governments truly work for the people. And it is men and women like Dr Lubisi who set the standard. https://t.co/y11hMXYCvm — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Achieving a non-sexist society as set out in the National Democratic Revolution is a process, but we must achieve it in our lifetime. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
This has been a very insightful and engaging dialogue, which has improved our understanding and strengthened our resolve to confront this grave social challenge. This message must spread throughout all our structures in all our provinces. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Ensuring equal representation of women and men, and active inclusion of people from the LGBTQI+ community in leadership positions across society, will aid in our efforts to change mindsets about traditional gender roles and stereotypes. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We must create and support institutional reforms that advance women and gender-non-conforming individuals as leaders and decision-makers. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We must enforce accountability for pay equity, provide fair compensation for care work and create transparent systems to ensure non-discrimination in recruitment, hiring and retention. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We must educate fathers on the benefit of taking full paternity leave as this can aid in bolstering children’s development. This can also contribute to gender equality in the workplace. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Government must establish policies and practices that encourage men to be full partners in care work through parental leave. Employers must have policies and practices that recognise the equal parenting responsibilities of men. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
When boys see fathers and older males more actively involved in domestic care and work, they are more likely to contribute to such work. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Men must become more active in households and contribute equally to care work. In this way, we become examples for young boys and work against oppressive gender stereotypes. #ANCMensDialogue — PolitiTweet.org
