The Seminar Series is called "Ukutshintshwa kweendlela/[Re] Directions" and is organized by the Chair for Critical Studies in Higher Education Transformation (CriSHET) at the Nelson Mandela University, South Africa.
This seminar took place at Nelson Mandela University, North Campus Conference Centre, on Monday, 14 May 2018 at 17:00
ABSTRACT
The recent Mandela University student protest around the NSFAS fiasco and tragedy suggests that we need to critically interrogate why and how the Black student experience is continuously hidden under the metaphorical invisibility cloak; across the system. This reproduces an already existing Eurocentric, anti-Black and patriarchal system with its ingrained brutality. How should the Black student activists, as a younger component of the Black revolutionary intelligentsia, play a role in universities to fight against such invisibilisation as central to the fight against colonial domination and its epistemic violences that dehumanise the black body?
